June

June isn't terrible, but it's also not anything special. Decent acting, overused plot, and subpar effects. A lot of what happens in the movie doesn't even seem relavent to the main story. It's all just glossed over, and never really goes in depth about anything which leads up to the climax being pretty anticlimactic and rushed. It makes for decent background noise at the very least.

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.

2.9 of 10. Whoever at IMDb is responsible for classifying this as science fiction should be fired and permanently banned from the site. This is little more than the typical satanic cult, possessed child horror film, neither of which are scary and have not been remotely scary or horror-like for decades. Just variations on the same stupid crap so that it's not even original.

The basic FX and filming manages to make the stereotypical eyes going black/red seem realistic enough. Part of the story involving the orphaned child having difficulty finding stable adopted parents and family is interesting and keeps it from being completely valueless, but there's no science or extrapolated future going on here other than the cult planning for the end-times and the child being the demon possessed bringer of them telling she/it doesn't like what will happen.

The film doesn't do much other than maybe provide scares and drama for very, very simple minds and serve to setup a sequel/series, which hopefully never happens.

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.

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.
