Circle of Eight Audience Reviews

Exoticalot People are voting emotionally.
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
mazeppa1968 Even the hint of style was 'crap' style: you soon get sick of shampoo-advert beautiful young people characters with skin deep characterisation (at least I do, maybe I'm just 'old' at 44). The supposed creepiness/horror does not deliver: minimal gore, no real sense of menace despite building the house up into something that is obviously 'supposed' to be creepy. Compare this to 'Hell House', the old hammer movie with Roddy MacDowell - utterly no contest! Soon you realise that NOTHING about this movie is going to deliver. I doubt whether even the two leads (who are obviously set up to fancy each other) even get round to a good f. to alleviate the pussyfooting boredom.The end of for me came and half an hour, when the 'heroine' comes across a bloodied corpse hanging upside down. There's a brief flurry of panic where she dashes outside to alert some police who happened to be passing by. despite being believed by no-one, she soon recovers when offered a drink by square-jawed unshaven hero. WTF?? No sane person would want to stay on in that house, and would be shaken up for ages. All credibility lost. Goodbye.No idea what happened after that, and I totally don't care.PS: Ha! Having read all the other reviews now, I see I was right: would have been a total waste of time to stay with it to the end: this movie does not deliver on ANY level. I was even right about predicting that the obvious sex with the 'hero' would not develop into at least a good adult scene to relieve the boredom: you get cheated even on this.All pathetic. Give it a miss.
Jon Doe You know there are two types of movie watchers out there. Passive watchers who kind of just put a movie in and if the mood,day,lighting and everything is right they like it. The problem is with these people when they don;t pay attention to them a movie is "flawed" or "filled with plot holes". These are the people that, for whatever reason have short attention spans and spend more time trying to find similarities to other movies so they can call it a ripoff of something else(I mean isn't everything a ripoff of something else at this point?) then just sit back and enjoy.Then you have the second bunch of people who when they sit down to watch a movie its like a ritual to them. And they may get really into the movies they watch. They don't want to talk during or discuss the movie while its on and they're not easily distracted to begin with. I fall in the latter group as do a few reviewers here. This movie is not bad at all and it definitely doesn't deserve its low rating.I mean this isn't a cookie cutter movie, but it also doesn't take a genius to understand...just your attention span and 1 and a half hours of your life.To possible viewers, no this movie isn't flawed, it isn't a flawed mess either. Everything is right there its just up to you to put the puzzle together. If you only like movies that are cut and dry with an answer for everything then you probably won't like this.If you want to turn your mind off from the world, then this is a great flick. Don;t watch it with a bunch of friends though because it requires your attention.6 out of 10 stars is an Honest to goodness revies for this movie that I expected to be in the 5-6.5 range.
tfarrell-874-210415 This movie starts out with a young girl moving into a new apt in the city. The first thing I noticed was that she only has one box of stuff with her? I kind of get the the story line somewhat. Some things they show...like the two lesbians making out in the dark, dank building made no sense. What was the reason? The never show them again. Another thing that bothered me was that Jessica never locked her doors! Here she is a single woman living by herself in a nasty rundown apt building with a bunch of strange people who are always popping into her apt uninvited! You would think she would learn to lock her doors...at one point she was taking a bath and again Evan walks in on her....HELLO lock your doors girl! I must say that the best part in the movie was Ed! Too many holes in this movie...could have been much better!
andy griggs I just finished watching this movie and have been looking all over trying to find a plot explanation from any sort of site, and I found one! As far as I can tell, its about a young woman who 'tried' to save her brother but didn't want to die herself, so she let him drown. Sad! I know.So, she moves on and moves out to 'The Dante', an apartment building with really weird people who have really bad boundary issues. They begin to stage their own death, and even get some fake cops in on the act. The protagonist falls for Evan, and the typical movie romance happens. Then, the real tragedy falls as she sets the building on fire. While she makes her hasty escape from a fiery death she knocks over a bookcase or something and it lands on Evan, pinning him. So she runs away and leaves him to die.The end! ... or is it?No. Not at all. Turns out this is try nine hundred thousand something and everyone else in The Dante knows she keeps killing them over and over. Kind of begs the questions, how 'bout denying her request to live there? Why stage their own death as a way to ward her off accidentally setting the place on fire? They're completely unrelated! Why not just tell her, 'Hey, careful with that pillow!'In some sort of strange way, her abandoning Evan is related to her abandoning her brother. However, that doesn't quite match up as each time she leaves him she's only known him for about eight hours. Not quite like the brother, but whatever. It kind of makes sense I guess.All in all, its pretty stupid. It'd be decent if its just on in the background while you're doing something else, but even thats still a bit iffy.
