FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

Mandeep Tyson The acting in this movie is really good.

Isbel A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

TdSmth5 A surfer finds some cool spot in Mexico and calls his cousin Colin to come over. Colin brings two friends along one of whom is a guy called Lucky some sleazy loner loser who always carries a camera with him. His goal for this trip: to film a surf porno. Also along for the ride are Colin's prospective girlfriend Ashley and her superhot friend Rose.During the trip we learn a couple of things about the kids who make some stops in Mexico and nearly get themselves in trouble. Once they arrive, the cousin and his group are gone. Their vehicles, a car and two motorcycles left there in disarray. Rose pretty quickly starts making her moves on Colin much to the annoyance of Ashley. While the guys go surfing, Lucky goes on an expedition filming what he finds along the way. Eventually he encounters a cliff at the bottom of which are dozens of skeletons and corpses. As he flees and turns his camera he catches a glimpse of some person or creature on the horizon. He also finds the camp where Colin's cousin was. Inside a tent he sees a bloody corpse. Strange things start happening as it gets darker and Lucky disappears. The group splits up, Ashley and the other guy go to the closest town to get help and Rose and Colin stay behind to look for/wait for his cousin. At the town the two kids are told the story behind the surf spot and why the locals avoid it and why no tourists come out of there alive. There's a good background story involving the activities of a cult. Eventually the kids meet up again, although not all make it. The remaining ones will confront the attackers known locally as the Jackals.This movie is quite good considering the budget. The sound and music are first rate. The look of the movie not so much- it has a discolored look to it with red/brown being overemphasized. A bizarre choice since it's all about beach and surfing. The acting is good. All characters are believable. Surfers may be fun guys but they are not interesting. The best character is Rose though and actress Joleigh Fioreavanti /Pulsonetti absolutely steals the show. She's hot and sexy and every scene sizzles when she's in it. It's hard to care for any of the remaining characters other than Lucky. The story is good, in particular the background to our creatures/zombies. There isn't much gore or action but the little there is is filmed well. Overall a fun horror movie that's slightly above average thanks to a good production effort and a sensational performance by Joleigh.

fedor8 From the first frame the low-budget roots of this movie glare you right in the face, with the sort of photography you might find in "Blair Witch Garbage". However, the very surprising thing was the fact that the acting and dialogue were quite a bit above average for a very cheap teen horror film. Particularly Joleigh Fioreavanti stands out, but then again, I'd say that, wouldn't I, being partial to beautiful women. The build-up to the horror scenes is perhaps more fun than the action itself, although the background-story scenes relating to the cult are well done. There are some obligatory silly scenes, though not too many, like when the love-birds make out – less than an hour after seeing some of their friends torn to pieces. Just a little word of advice to the director: do not sing songs on your own movie soundtracks – ever again. What a crappy voice

chadmichaelcollins I agree with everything you said. It is all about flashing boobs, also masturbation. On top of that it is like seeing one big soap opera . I would of rather watched a soap opera than this movie. I would not recommend this movie to anyone. My girlfriend fell asleep in the middle of the movie because it was so boring. This is my opinion. If you buy or rent this movie it is a waste of time and money. Dawn of the dead and any other vampire movie beats this movie big time. Like I said this is an opinion I came up with. You make like this movie if you like fake blood, and body parts that look like scraps from a meat dept in your local store. Let me not go any further before I give the whole plot away.

dave-kebo I Netflixed this film because it just came out and I was in the mood for some horror. As is with low-budg, straight to DVD horror, my expectations were LOW. I am glad to say that I was pleasantly surprised. The acting and directing is well above the caliber of movies in this genre and the writing was surprisingly witty. Felt very much like a throwback to the 70s classics, like the original "The Hills Have Eyes." There are some truly harrowing moments not to mention a cool concept and some beautiful landscapes. O, and excellent music selection and score. My only real criticism is the dialogue mix is low and not the best, but overall, if you're a fan of old school Genre pieces, this film is well worth a rental. Take the ride!
