Well that's time I'll never get back. It's Halloween season so I've been watching a lot of horror/slasher/thriller films and this was truly horrible. The acting was mediocre at best, the lighting and camera work was awful. As for the story, it's so full of plotlines and backstories that go absolutely no where, there's zero character development and so many loose ends it would drive anyone mad. There is literally nothing good I can say about this atrocity of a film. Don't waste your time by watching it! Pass it by!
Okay, I will give some credit to the characters of Carson, Ace and Bess. They're likeable and somewhat relatable. However, everything else about this is garbage. CW really butchered it. I grew up reading the Nancy Drew books and this is nothing like them at all. It's really badly written and filmed and Nancy? She is a psychotic, hypocritical, narcassistic jerk! I have no idea what CW was thinking making her this way, but it honestly makes me so angry that I was literally screaming at the tv. ANd don't even get me started on all the sex! Horrible..absolutely horrible! This is an insult to the books and to Nancy Drew!! Whatever you do, DO NOT WATCH THIS TRASH!
As far as Indie films go, this one is great. Considering that, like most independent films, it's budget and financial aspect heavily relies on donations and such..this film is well done. The characters are interesting, though perhaps somewhat lacking in development. The score is fitting and the whole theme gives of the kind of affect you'd expect from this type of film. I would however suggest a bit more background and direction. But overall, for an indie film it's a great choice. I see a ton of potential here for the filmmaker(s) !
