Ok, I get it, it is barely February the 16th, but for me this is the most disappointing and annoying horror of the year. Sadly, as I am a huge fan of the horror underground scene , I'm sure I'll find other productions quite weak, but I'm positive, none like this one. So let me explain to you why:
If you decide to watch this, you'll notice the camera work, the direction, the background, everything seems ok, not out of order, not cheap, not thrown there in the mix, but a work well done. Even tho this movie is clearly low budget, it doesn't look like one. The dialogue takes its time and seems comprehensive, there is character development, more than one location, more than one character or even group of such. So why did it fail so bad, and why did I give it two stars?
Because it is a 1.45h movie that begins to act in the last 25 minutes and till then this is nothing more than dialogue. All over dialogue, over any subject, between any kind of characters, you will see NOTHING for 1 hour and 20 minutes, but dialogue. Simply put, all over the place. Imagine a Tarantino movie that just forgets to start, like Death Proof but with even less action. This isn't a horror, this was tagged as such in order to attract a crowd, but it is so misleading, so annoying, one of the very few movies I rated it 2 stars. It was a painful experience and I hope I never have to go through such a thing again. It sort of ruined my night really, nothing and nothing but small talk over anything. Death Trip, a trip that might just kill you indeed.
Cheers!
