June

Right, well despite the fact of never even having heard about this 2015 horror movie titled "June", from director L. Gustavo Cooper, as I stumbled upon it here in 2025, of course I needed no persuasion to watch it. I am, after all, a huge fan of all things horror.

Writers Sharon Y. Cobb and L. Gustavo Cooper put together a fair enough script, though I have to say that at times the narrative felt a bit disjointed, as if the writers were just cramming in randomly filmed scenes to fill out holes in the narrative.

Of the entire cast ensemble in the movie, I was only familiar with Casper Van Dien, Victoria Pratt and Lance E. Nichols. The acting performances in the movie were good.

The effects in the movie were fair, though it is not a movie that relies all too much of special effects in order to deliver its story.

"June" is a watchable movie, if you like supernatural horror movies, but hardly one that warrants more than a single viewing.

My rating of director L. Gustavo Cooper's 2015 movie "June" lands on a five out of ten stars.

Don't upset June. Really? I've seen more consequences to being asked to wear a mask in a supermarket. The acting is mainly good, so that's why it has any stars. I suppose it gets better towards the end...but I didn't get that far the second time, I think I fell asleep...or maybe had another stroke.

Tale about a young orphaned girl and her demonic alter ego Aer, as she is moved from trailer trash foster home to nice but childless couple. Naturally there is an evil plan at work. This movie is pretty well acted and filmed, is easily watchable but as a horror film it is very tame. I picked it up from Poundland so can't grumble, though I'll be passing my copy on.

More a dark supernatural thriller than a horror, this is not an annoying movie when so many real horrors are.

It is somewhat forgettable though, enlivened by what is actually a very poignant and charming depiction of a child without a place to call home.

Fairly effective as propaganda for making the adoption process much easier.

This is enjoyable horror. It's very well acted, the script is good and the plot plausible for modern horror. It's true there are no real surprises once the piece is up and running, but it has good similarities to Carrie (relationship development with parents and others), and a couple of points that work better, such as the cuteness and extra youth of June and her peers, and the less over-the-top special effects, which are good. That the budget went for good special effects at perhaps the expense of a larger cast was an intelligent stroke, and I'm almost inclined to give this an 8. There is a a welcome spread here of tension leading to moments of horror frenzy, and enough clever mystery to keep one interested. I'd not be surprised if future opinion will regard this sincerely professional production as one that should have enjoyed more credibility and ratings than current.
