Blood Bound

Intelligent and well done on an obviously low budget.

Main parts are acted and written well. Honestly could have been an hour longer and I would have still rated it highly.

No good guys and bad guys, various shades of grey everywhere (well apart form the last 30 seconds).

Really enjoyed it.

Its a devilish flick for sure, its blood bound so to speak, with witches, monsters,crooks, virgins,spells,enchantments and fear. its an esthetical piece of art in all its simlicity, the acting are at times very good and so are also the filmography. its not the most scary thing ive seen,but it has for sure an unexpected ending and are at times very emotional.

but the pace are far too slow, i'm not a profesional movie reviewer, so i can admit that i started the screening at normal, then rushed to 1,12, so 1,25 and in the end i took a dervish dance at 1,5 speed and almost forgot why the film ended so fast.unethical yes,but some flicks has a pace that can be adjusted without getting the bends anyway, so i cheated a little.....

they genre this film as a horror thriller, i will adjust that to psychological horror drama, because its all about existestial claustrophobia. i recommend a watch even though im just awarding it as a 6 star movie.the rest is up to you.

I was pretty surprised by this movie. It's not a great movie, but the pacing seems decent. Do not rob people expecially if the practice the ocult. If you have nothing else this is a decent watch.

Wow, what a great flick! The movie is visually spot on and the cinematogrophy does a great job of marrying beautiful imagery with darkness and despair. Ultimately a story of karmic debt and bad choices made all around, but painted with a deft hand at storytelling. While measured in pace, the slow build leads to a big payoff, so it was worth it! The cast did a great job also!! Oh yeah, I really loved the score. Simple and Haunting!

If you are looking for a Rob Zombie gore fest then this is not the movie for you. But if you are looking for a creepy and (Bloody) tale of witches and demons told through the viewpoint of Generation Z then this is your film.

For lovers of "It follows", "Rosemary's baby", and "The Witch".

"Blood Bound" is a weighted story, with family dynamics, personal conflict, and social complexities. On the surface it is a story about the occult, and overcoming supernatural evil. But to its depth it is a character melodrama pitting self identity against clan mentality. And aesthetically the juxtaposition between backdrops of scenic beauty against such dark and damaged characters is total arthouse.

At the beginning the story falters near to being forced, or convoluted. However it merely teeters there as characters become more developed and recognizable. It is mixed with some moments of quality acting and captivating storytelling. "Blood Bound" feels indie and at times it felt like a Lifetime movie, you know- the creepy kind they play during the Halloween season. I did keep asking "where's the horror"?!

There is some horror in the film but it comes nearly an hour into the story. The supernatural elements are slightly weak, mostly coming off as "make-believe". They seem too understated. The occult aspects beyond that are done nicely, and really give into the witchy vibe that LeMay is going for. Overall "Blood Bound" fails to gain any major ground as far as the horror, but the story is a good one and the film is worth checking out.
