The Blood Lands

The Blood Lands for the worst movie on any streaming service. What was the point of this? Who were the bad guys? Why? This movie has no point. Are we to believe the Scotts are still mad about a 400 year old war? Don't even waste your time watching the preview . I could go on and on about the utter nonsense of this movie but I've already wasted enough of my life on this garbage.

The movie is a straightforward, unimaginative but slightly suspenseful home invasions thriller. I was wondering why the bad guys were doing what they were doing (I knew nothing about the movie going in, not even the tag line). Wondering right up to the ridiculous ending. I was left wondering how the perpetrators in this story thought they would ever in a million years get away with it. Once the police find the guy with the sliced up face or the one who's face was bashed in they're all done for.

Well , I thought I would give this film a chance as its a brit flick and I am British.

You can tell straight away that the locations are not in Scotland.

So anyway I waited and waited for the film to unfold and hope that some kind of story would unravel.

Instead I just lost 70 odd minutes of my life that I will never get back.

My advice is give this film a miss.

Im only writing more lines to finish the ten lines needed to post.

The film only deserves my review so maybe I can save others the time I wasted watching it.

This is your standard, move to new location, terror starts horror movie. It's really very predictable and at times very stupid (what the characters do), but I guess it all helps keeping the tension high. And in that it succeeds. The movie looks and sounds the part, even if there are bigger plot holes than it should be allowed to have.

The performances are OK, considering what sort of movie we have here. Although I reckon some might have issues seeing the main actress in a "weak" role like that, especially after having seen "The Woman". It's not that she is not able to carry that role, it's just that the role itself is weak. Script-wise that is. Whatever the case, this is bog standard fare, you might even like it

This is a run of the mill type of home invasion type thriller. It isn't bad, just same ol stuff. The one thing that really caught my attention with this film was the lead actress. I'm not sure of her name but I know that she was in "The Woman." I thought that she did a fantastic job in that film. I'm not sure of which film came first but I like that she was able to show a great deal of versatility between these two roles.
