7 Below

"Bellow Seven" (2012) is a Horror Thriller which has as the most famous actors in it Vig Rhames and Val Kilmer. The film deals with the history of a house, where in 1911 a family was murdered, and that 100 years later, after an accident, some people get stuck in it, along with a strange man who takes care of the house (Rhames).

Frankly speaking, this is one of the worst movies in every way I've ever seen: the story is very weak, and is extremely cliché, and has many holes in the narrative, which is inconsistent and without any interesting point.

The footage is bad, even renting a house with theoretically more than 100 years, it has everything brand-new, even the infrastructure of a new home, with nothing of dust or cobwebs, even in places that would be less care of.

Otherwise, besides a gas station and a forest (well cared for that matter), has no other locations. Special effects in just a few seconds in the final minutes (and even they were poorly made​​).

The actions and roles are some of the worst I've ever seen: the best of all, in a regular performance is Vig Rhames, and Val Kilmer (who I no longer consider a good actor), is terrible, with a brief paper and without a definite personality (from a rude guy to a mentally ill one from nothing). The others actors / characters are meaningless and horrible.

The music and sound effects are adequate, nothing more.

In total is a poor film, not even a class B one, a total loss of 1 and a half hour of my life... this is really a movie that should stay 7 feet below the ground. My score: 2.0 / 10.0.

There seems to have been some confusion about the meaning of the title to this film, with viewers quite understandably (but wrongly) assuming that it somehow relates to a sub-zero temperature. My understanding is that the number refers to the seven people that we see at the beginning of the film—the six people in the van, and the cashier at the garage—and that the word 'below' alludes to the perpetual 'hell' in which they are trapped, which in this instance is an eternity in the presence of Ving Rhames and Val Kilmer as they give possibly the worst performances of their careers.

Not that Rhames and Kilmer are the only ones at fault in this unmitigated supernatural disaster: the majority of the blame must go to writer/director Kevin Carraway, who clearly had no idea how to develop his script beyond its trite 'we're all doomed to repeat our torment forever' initial concept, the result of which is an hour and a half of utter nonsense (filled with terrible characters and risible dialogue). If the driving force behind the whole film is unable to adequately explain what the hell is going on, then what chance do the cast have? And, consequently, what chance do the viewers have? Suffice to say that the film is incredibly dull, very frustrating and leaves many questions unanswered, the most obvious being 'How the hell did this garbage ever get made?'.

N.B. Two of the prop newspapers have grammatical errors in their headlines; they couldn't even get that right!

When it comes to movies I always have an open mind and enjoy losing myself in the plot but when I say this movie is bad, I mean this movie is bad. It is so bad that I decided to share my opinion and feel it's my duty to share it so that I might be able to help those that have not watched this yet, save their time and energy and dedicate it to something else....ANYTHING else.

The acting was laughable for most of the cast with the exception of Goss, Kilmer and a few others. I honestly thought that I was going insane because I couldn't accept that a movie as bad as this had actually been made.

I am not even making sense as I type this because I can't even express or communicate in proper English and Grammar just how dreadful this movie is.

In summary......for the love of all that is good and pure in this world....don't watch this movie.

The wolf lawyer Bill McCormick (Val Kilmer) and his estranged wife Brooklyn (Bonnie Somerville); the brothers Issac (Luke Goss) and Adam (Matt Barr); and Dr. Lipski (Christian Baha) are returning from a resort in a van. They stop in a gas station where Adam and Bill woo the attendant Courtney (Rebecca Da Costa) and when they return to the road, the driver sees a mysterious woman on the road and crashes the van on a tree.

The driver dies and the group of strangers is helped by Jack (Ving Rhames) that invites them to go to his house since a storm is coming. Adam meets Courtney with her broken car on the road and she joins the group. Soon they find that they are trapped in the house that is inhabited by ghosts. Further they learn that one hundred years ago a family was slaughtered by their insane son and they can see the boy killing his family again and again.

"Seven Below" is a senseless and lame ghost story and one of the worst horror movies that I have ever seen. The plot is an awful rip-off of the storyline of Claude Chabrol's "Alice ou la Dernière Fugue", with a car crash on a tree and the character trapped in a house.

Ghost stories are usually attractive, but unfortunately "Seven Below" does not make any sense. The characters are poorly developed and Val Kilmer and Ving Rhames are absolutely decadent in their careers. My vote is two.

Title (Brazil): "Sete Almas" ("Seven Souls")

This is not great.

Pretty Simple.

The only reason people are watching this is because of Kilmer and Rhames.

If they needed money that badly we could have started a Go Fund Me page!
