So much average

Best movie ever!

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

The scariest thing about this film, is that leave it open for a sequel.

Shame on you Netflix for recommending me this piece of junk! I can't think of any worst movie that I've ever seen before. I don't usually write reviews, but this was so bad, on so many levels, that I had to check other reviews and find out who could make worthless piece of junk like this. Luckily, there are many reviews that are in line with my opinion, so I won't spend our time on details. I had fun reading other reviews. I gave it two stars because of four really pretty actresses. They are very annoying, but really pretty nevertheless.

Out of the gate, The Hatred sets up solid ground work. Part Apt Pupil, part The Conjuring, a decent backstory opens up the first act. As opposed to relying on flashbacks, this film plays out the horrific history of the locale and story. Post-Nazi America in a small town and the secrets that ensue.The second Act only exists to guide us into the present day. Sassy, texting, little to say to each other modern day females visiting the haunted house in question. While trying to create strong, independent women, the script merely calls out the older male sensibility of what we think young adult women talk like. Merely hamstringing our female cast to become stereotypes trying to be more than what was written for them. Which is sad, because the actresses really try to create a sense of friendship, love and trust. However, the groundwork is downtrodden and stale.The last act finally brings the scares and suspense. While unapologetically and rituallistacly off camera, killing off the cast; the final moments with our lead and the child are decently executed. The moment perpetuated in the films trailer is very effective and inventive for an otherwise stale and often imitated genre.Overall, the film had a decent cast and a solid plot. The downside was the lacking second act and lowly accommodating budget. If that third act, trailer based twist on the supernatural played throughout this film, it would've been one for the books.

I like to think of myself as liking just about any movie out there; BUT THIS MOVIE IS ABSOLUTELY AND POSITIVELY HORRIBLE! I'm shocked we finished it. Terrible acting of the whole cast. Graphics were so clearly fake and computerized. The store left holes and unexplained topics. IT WAS JUST S**T!!! This movie isn't even worth seeing if it were free. Totally wasted $4 on trash!!!
