Scarewaves Audience Reviews

Cebalord Very best movie i ever watch
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
Allison Davies The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
Raymond Sternadel It's not a great movie but it's not completely awful either. I found myself laughing quite a few times throughout. The T&A sprinkled in wherever they could also helped me enjoy it just that little bit more. The thing that surprised me most though was that in one of the stories they actually got me with a decent jump scare. Kudos. But yeah, try to give this movie some leeway, at times you will wish it was over.
porkchopis2 I guess the people behind this movie are trying desperately to get it a good review or two, even if it means they have to write them on their own. Sad. You can always tell in the very first scenes of a film if it is a bad one by the quality of the sets and the first lines and delivery of those words by the actors. Based on these things alone, I didn't want to watch any more then the first two minutes!All of the scenes seem to have been shot in someone's Mom's basement.The poor lighting, no actual set design, and props just filmed as things were when they got there, show not only the lack of budget but also suggest the people working on the movie knew it was going to be a clunker before filming even started!Not a single actor has any talent.Verbally, most use a monotone to speak their lines, and gestures are not suitable to the scene that is being filmed, always the sign of a bad actor. I did check the resumes of some of these people and was surprised to learn that at least one of them has had many roles in several films. Obviously that person is hired by his Mom and Dad, or as a joke.And finally, the dialogue is so poor that it is astounding. Case in point? The officer who comes upon a burglar, standing still with his hands up, STILL yells "Freeze", "Don't move", "Get on the ground" and then "I SAID FREEZE" again even though the felon hasn't even moved yet. The Burglar looks just as confused and embarrassed to be acting in this piece of junk as I am for having watched it...Go watch paint dry, it's far more entertaining.
Woodyanders Abrasive shock jock Amos Satan (sharply played with caustic aplomb by John Bradley Hambrick) relates four tales of terror over the radio on his last day on the job: An artist resorts to drastic evil measures to achieve greatness in his work, two thieves pull off a robbery which has severe repercussions, a corrupt ex-cop finds himself being haunted by his grim past while working as a security guard, and a murder accomplice gets driven out of her mind by her guilty conscience.Director/co-writer Henrique Couto relates the enjoyable stories at a swift pace, maintains a generally dark and serious tone throughout, offers a few nifty twists, generates a good amount of tension, and delivers plenty of tasty distaff nudity for fans of the female form. The solid acting by the capable cast holds this movie together, with especially praiseworthy contributions from Erin R. Ryan as sweet photographer Linda, Geoff Burkman as unrepentant dirty cop Easterly, Hayley Madison as the calculating Tara, Josh Miller as the fidgety Albert, Joe Kidd as moody artist Garrett, and Joni Durian as the conniving Eva. The third and fourth segments are the best of the bunch while the wraparound tale boasts a nice surprise ending. Couto's slick cinematography provides a pleasing polished look and makes dynamic use of a mobile camera. An immensely fun omnibus outing.
jedispyder This was a very fun movie! It's an anthology with a frame story connecting all the vignettes.The frame story was incredibly great with John Bradley Hambrick as Amos Satan, a late night radio host who is doing a special show for his final night before he goes his way. Hambrick was great as Satan, giving a great feel of radio host.The vignettes are "urban legend" type stories that Satan knows and wants to share with his listeners, instead of the usual taking call-ins from people telling him clichéd urban legends.Each of the vignettes is written by a different author which all give their own unique feel to the movie. All have spot-on comedic moments without trying too hard.If you enjoy anthologies, I definitely urge you to check this movie out!
