So I will rate this movie much like how I rate all movies...for what it is and sells. This is supposed to be a horror / splatter movie. It is not good enough to watch it again...it is not bad enough to watch it for fun...it is just...meh...the story was not origina!,but this is fine for me...the acting was bad...but I could live with that as well...but for a horror/splatter movie,stealing so many elements from other movies of its kind...one could at least expect some more blood,more Gore,more imagination in the tortures,and at least a bit more tension!the "victims" either get caught too easily,or escape too easily!even the "twist" in the end is expected!in a nutshell...I don't regret seeing it,but there definitely are greater movies of this kind,and one can waste his time watching something else.
It's a rip off of Funhouse Massacre, but it's still enjoyable. The music definitely elevates it significantly. If you haven't checked out Mr. Strange yet, you definitely need to give them a listen.
This movie is free on Prime right now, so if your options are watching a repeat or this, give Talon Falls a try.
This was a solid, if not unremarkable, crazy backwoods people horror movie. I liked the set, which I understand is a real haunted house attraction in Kentucky. The setting had a lot of great atmosphere. I also liked the choice of music that played a significant role in the story.
Where I think this movie struggles in the acting by the leads and the story. The two main actresses don't do much more than scream throughout most of the story. Neither really does much to make her character different or memorable. In fact, the screaming was so annoying by the time we arrived at the climax of the story, that I did not feel bad for their disposition. The supportive acting wasn't so much acting as walking and swinging an axe. The bad guys had no development whatsoever.
This leads to the bigger issue - the story. It borrows heavily from the "House of 1000 Corpses" which itself borrowed from "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre" and other slasher movies. The scheme is so complex that it makes the puzzles in "Saw" seem practical. If you think about why this haunted house exists or how it can sustain itself or how the killers could have video tapes of victims going back for years without anyone figuring this out, the story falls apart.
I watched the whole movie and it was kind of fun, but it is dumb as a box of hammers.

After reading some bad reviews, I have to say it wasn't that bad. It was quite decent for a low budget production.
