Karry Best movie of this year hands down!
FeistyUpper If you don't like this, we can't be friends.
Limerculer A waste of 90 minutes of my life
Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
Scaperoni Terrible. Especially the young actors (Hunter Alexes Parker and Mason Parker) and the dad (Matt Holbrook). Lara Jean Mummert did pretty well, but she is too much of a stage and theater actor to work well on screen.In the actors' defense, the writing can take a lot of the blame for the disjointed and unnatural dialogue. No one says things like, "looking...right at myself." Or, "...without knowing the background of it." I know Batista was born in the DR but no one proofread the work at all to remove any rigidity or colloquial missteps.
nebilcs-168-165298 Having seen the reviews, I wasn't optimistic. First the negatives: the son's lines and behaviour were of someone much younger. The dialogue sometimes sounded odd, like it was dubbed as an afterthought. The latter part was formulaic and the least believable and effective part was the interview/narration which bookended the story. The creature effects were mercifully kept short as they were clearly limited (it's good that this was recognised and understood) although the end shot succeeded as a clever misdirection.The positives: genuinely creepy in places. Surprisingly so given that the flaws would normally have me tuned out of any attempt at building an atmosphere. The soundtrack and sound effects, cinematography and production quality were above average for lower budget indie standards. The script was hit and miss but the acting was again above average, substantially so with Paige who went from homely domestic to yelling possessee and back again. And it was refreshing to not have models cast for every part.Overall and even with the flaws, I thought this punched above its weight which is a credit to everyone involved.
dekspam There's really no foothold to gain in order to redeem this film; none other than watching it for a laugh. Bad cinematography, bad editing, bad acting (the male character above all others) and what's more important, bad storytelling. The scenes with the priest were the ones where we laughed more hysterically: the one where the guy budges around as if he was annoyed by a mosquito rather than a demon takes the cake. (MEMO: bring insecticide rather than holy water next time.) Oh, don't forget to take a look at the fake 10 star reviews here on IMDb for an additional laugh.
mrsapped People are obviously voting high as a joke, or the creators are doing so.I swear on my life Amomaly is the worst movie I've ever seen.Apparently a group of everyday people decided they wanted to try & make a film.Better acting & costumes in a 6th grade play & I'm not exaggerating.What was supposed to be horror unintentionally turned into comedy.It is truly sad that these ppl couldn't see how awful every scene they shot was, when watching it back.Watch only if you have time to kill & want a good laugh.
