The Bride Audience Reviews

Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.
SanEat A film with more than the usual spoiler issues. Talking about it in any detail feels akin to handing you a gift-wrapped present and saying, "I hope you like it -- It's a thriller about a diabolical secret experiment."
Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
Michael Ledo A couple about to be married are victims of a home break-in. Kira (Henrietta Riddervold) puts up a good fight, but alas succumbs at "The Blood Tree" which was introduced in the opening. This California tree is cursed because a Native American bride was raped and killed here by Confederate soldiers. We then get a formula revenge film.Characters are not believable. Actors have trouble with their lines. Not as good as that zombie rape-revenge film (Amanda Adrienne- "Avenged" or "Savaged") Guide: F-word. Rape Nudity (Henrietta Riddervold)
michaelerickson-57069 There is a very Yin and Yang flow about this movie. It balances in it's GOOD parts (acting and writing in a few good scenes, the whole killing to retrieving the "something borrow, something blue",some really good shots and camera work) and it's BAD parts (Technically: the movie "shows" it's low low low budget. with it's Bad sounds mix, the almost amateurish editing, the video and audio effects are effective in parts but very low grade, TV like.) But overall I must say The Bride definitely tickled the senses of this Horror/Slasher fan.
edr-109-174539 I bet that a Bunch of kids can get together and come out with a better Movie Acting and direction. Except for her, The Actors are probably recruited for the Side walk in front of the Studio, and if they didn't, they should have been paid with Pizza. or paid by the Hour and the Story Plot Though it sounded Interesting as a Bride comes back for revenge " Sort of like KILL BILL" but when you start watching the only thing you will think about is: what the hell is that!!!! All in all this will Rank among your worst Hour and twenty Minutes ever spent in front of the Screen, and you will probably finish it because it is short anyway.
callist This movie is a little weird.First weird decision is that the movie starts off with having the viewer read the "legend" that makes up the main premise of the movie - this immediately got a groan from me. If you expect people to read, the movie that comes afterwords has to be amazing to the nth degree. A below-average revenge-porn horror is not that.The second weird decision is making the above-mentioned 'legend' part of the premise - the main character was already a super-soldier lady who almost got away based on her own skills and showed herself more than competent. I can't help but feel that I would have cheered her on a little harder if it had just been her, one-woman'ing it up on her quest for vengeance (not that the possession changes that a huge deal - it's kind of hard to see to which degree she's possessed). Of course, that would have made it even more of a 'Grave' clone. It also didn't help that the 'legend' part was done so badly - Ayiana's costume was horrible and she spoke English when performing her little ritual (extremely jarring).Third weird decision is the pacing - there is pretty much no tension built at any point in the movie. It goes nothing-action-a bit of tension-action-nothing-action. The only real tension seemed to be when main lady was running from the villains after they killed Fiancé Guy but even that was quite short - what should have been the main focus, killing the villains, was completely unsatisfying and boring in the end with no tension or variance.On the formal side of things, acting was pretty bad. I didn't believe her, her fiancé or the villains for a second. Dialogue was pretty bad - the obnoxious villain sidekick was painful to listen to and all the others were almost as bad. Sound effects were pretty bad - gun shot sounds stand out as particularly mediocre and meh. Visual effects are very meh as well; it's often very obvious that the weapons don't make contact or cut aways are used to avoid using effects.Most egregious of all, though - and absolutely the funniest - is when Fiancé Guy talks to his bro over FaceTime. It's a still-image with normal (way too high quality, no options displayed) video imposed on it. That was the moment I knew what kind of movie this would be and I laughed and laughed.About the only things that seemed likable were that the relationship between the lovers was portrayed nicely (if acted somewhat sub-par) - light and humorous - and the strong female lead. She was clearly the one in the relationship associated with more "masculine" traits and the fiancé in turn showed some more "feminine" traits which made them seem like more substantial characters instead of the usual cardboard cut outs.In short, if you want rape-revenge horror, go for 'I Spit on Your Grave' - if you want possessed revenge horror, go for 'Savaged'. Neither were high art but both much better than this.
