Featured reviews
The Elf, if you can find them.
A young man who inherit an old toy shop starts
to feel he's not alone.
Calling this a B-movie, would be an insult to B-
movies. This is a ultra trash.
Nooooooo
The reviews are correct and actually nicer then they need to be. This movie is terrible. Whoever funded it made a terrible mistake. Please pick a charity next time. The worst acting, no apparent story line and an absent director. Pour a drink and enjoy.
Probably the worst film I have ever watched
Please avoid this movie at all costs. What can I say terrible acting, terrible CGI and all in all the worst movie I have ever seen. Unfortunately I had to give it 1 other wise it would not even get that. Please save yourself a wasted evening and watch something else, anything else just not this.
Who edited this mess?
I don't normally write reviews especially negative ones but this film was just frustrating to watch. Solely on how poorly the sound editing/mixing was done. The film editor, believed it was Khu, needs a better set of headphones.
I watched it on Amazon so maybe they received a poor version of the movie but I highly doubt it. I even try adjusting my audio settings but that didn't change anything.
The sound mixing isn't the film only issue. There is the poor pacing, bad acting, and a lazy script. I only gave it a 2/10 due to the fact that some of the cinematography was decent.

Forget about the elf and go somewhere else...
Wow! This movie was terrible!
I managed to endure 35 minutes of it, before I gave up out of sheer and utter boredom. Nothing, and I do mean literally nothing, had happened in the 35 minutes.
The storyline was flat and pointless.
The characters were one-dimensional cardboard cut outs that had no personalities and were portrayed by actors whom seemed not to buy into the movie themselves.
There were also continuity errors as well; one scene where the guy found the elf doll it was snowing behind him then as the camera angle changed the snow was gone but it magically returned as the camera angle changed again. And also when the couple was having a conversation about the elf doll in their home, the woman's shirt was alternating between being pulled up or down as the camera angle changed.
For a horror movie then "The Elf" offered little, if anything at all, which would make it appealing to anyone. I didn't find anything worthwhile in the movie. And despite only having suffered through 35 minutes, then I can in all honesty say that I am not returning to finish it ever.
Stay well clear of this movie!
