The Casebook of Eddie Brewer Audience Reviews

GamerTab That was an excellent one.
Matialth Good concept, poorly executed.
Sexyloutak Absolutely the worst movie.
Lidia Draper Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
khsu The Borderlands, The Mirror, now this. Though this precedes the other two by two years.Understated and creepy. Left just enough unexplained/to the imagination. Which is how I like my horror.Characters and dialog chiseled and sculpted with a light, deft hand. Lead character felt like a real bloke: affable, stable, reliable - someone you'd trust in a crisis; yet at the same time has a hidden fuse, a darkness, a mania. At times you're scared for him; at times you're scared of him.The movie reminded me of and made me miss growing up listening to ghost stories on radio on Saturday evenings, with my mother finishing up the dishes in the kitchen the next room over. It has that kind of 'real' feeling.If I had to bone-pick, the shifting in and out of found-footage pov was a little jarring. There's something about the purity of a commitment to found footage - well-executed and credible, of course. The last act was also a bit too jumpy and jumbled.I also like the cover poster with the cave better. (The one with the kid looks low-rent.) They should market the film with that one.
HorrorBuff235 I really enjoyed this film. Going into it I was very sceptical as I have seen a lot of rubbish released lately and nothing that stands out. The casebook of Eddie Brewer goes back to films with a good story and slow burning terror rather than jump scares and gore. Although we are watching a documentary being shot, the viewer watches from the point of view of an outsider rather than a viewer of the documentary so we are privy to seeing things that aren't 'caught on tape'. The film slowly builds up so if you are looking for a horror that from the outset brings you blood and gore,things jumping out, CGI ghosts etc this film isn't going to be for you. However, if you enjoy films that have a bit of a ghost story then give this a go as you'll be pleasantly surprised. This is a low budget UK movie from Director & Writer Andrew Spencer. Cast members played their parts well especially our lead Ian Brooker who was wonderfully well cast and completely convincing as our middle aged, slightly tortured, ghost hunter with a past. A wonderful film - wish there were more like this, I may well have to watch again.
Paul Hodge I felt that Ian imbued the role with just the right balance of earnest conviction and charlatanic cynicism making Eddie a thoroughly watchable and realistic protagonist. The slow but sure exposure of foibles and personal demons added great colour to the character.I'm just amazed that TV companies did not pick this up as I think the whole concept of Eddie and his research - especially his intellectualising of sometimes indubitable and intangible theory - makes for such a wonderful watch. With the flawed and fragile human condition at the centre of the piece, the ghost second, it provides the necessary connection that engages the audience.I thought Andrew Spencer's writing and direction marvellous and what immediately came to mind was the intoxicating, delicious thrills of the seminal Ghostwatch. I completely understand why Stephen Volk would be a fan!Above all, I thought the way Ian portrayed the character incredibly enlightening and entertaining and, most importantly, it left me wanting to know much more about the demons that drive Eddie.Tell me, will there be another episode in the world of Eddie Brewer?Regards, Paul
James Brown (jibonlineenterprise) ** SPOILERS ALERT** A low budget documentary-drama mystery, that isn't for the faint hearted, from first time director, Andrew Spencer. We follow the title character (played by Ian Brooker) as he undergoes a disturbing investigation into the paranormal after a number of encounters with a mysterious figure are reported.Brewer must try to bring an end to the strange goings on, but soon discovers another case he is involved with may have something to do with it.On a technical level, the sound design and musical score took the independent feature to another level. The atmosphere and ambiance created by Music Composer, Jamie Robertson was second to none as he demonstrated mastery of music.Overall, a nice little feature shot on the cheap which promises to do well in festivals and selected cinemas in the UK.
