Movie Reviews

Little White Lies - 6/10 by Anton Bitelwhile Anstey is happy to pillage motifs wholesale from the Evil Dead trilogy and Straight to Hell, he lacks the pacing, and more importantly the humour, to make such materials seem anything less than hand-me-downs that have seen much better days.
User Review - 8/10 by Michael HKind of like an Australian Evil Dead,the scariest film I've seen in ages.
User Review - 8/10 by Jacob PThis film was great! The grandmother scared the crap out of me. It had a pretty good plot with very interesting scenes\imagery. But it did get a little off topic from the beginning's main storyline.
User Review - 6/10 by Cindy HEh this was ok..wouldn't really recommend it tho
User Review - 6/10 by Naomi RAn adequate waste of time. This film won't change your life but the story and acting is decent enough. It's not particularly scary and some parts drag on a bit but I found it enjoyable enough.
User Review - 6/10 by Stu M65% Didn't dig the flying skeleton at all. The banshee was creepy some of the time, but her howl is what sold it.
User Review - 4/10 by Ed Fucking Htrue this is a cheap version of a evil dead type film but it still has its moments amongst the cheap tacky fog . some nice demons and a few creepy bits but mostly lacks grip and pace and tounge in cheek humour to pull it off. still much better then " the last exorcism "
User Review - 4/10 by Katherine CDidnt expect much from what i seen of trailer but gave it a go and i didnt get much. Bit cheesy some really bad acting but i did like some of the special effects.
User Review - 4/10 by Joe AA few spooky moments early on but, Austrailian horror is far too derivative of Raimi's Evil Dead films and far too obvious with it's cinematic touches too be taken as the serious horror it wants to be. The CGI spooks are more laughable then scary and makes one ask the question why today's breed of filmamakers feel the need to do everything CGI when live effects would give a better result. Director Anstey must have also missed the class about Raimi pacing as Dawn moves very slowly for a flick under 90 minutes. Even the climax is ho hum and silly.
User Review - 4/10 by Aleksandar JA mediocre Aussie low-budget horror flick that takes a crack at the legend of the banshee but quickly flies off into territory that's both unrelated to the legend and hackneyed. A woman goes to visit her dying grandmother who warns her not to interfere when "the lady of sorrows" shows up to take her away. The woman interferes, of course, and unleashes the wrath of the banshee of the O'Neils. Much screaming, flying CG skeletons that splatter into muck on the windshield of a moving car, and cockroach infestation ensues. There are a couple of good scares to be had, but much of what's here is unintentionally humorous and internally inconsistent. The banshee's scream is capable of waking the dead, but the dead take the form of flying skeletons portrayed by low-end CG that leaves them looking fake and a bit silly. That they are almost always material but sometimes ghostly as convenient may leave a few viewers scratching their heads. So may the fact that sometimes shotguns are effective against them and sometimes they aren't. The banshee herself bleeds when wounded despite being described as a spirit. She's portrayed by a snub-nosed actress painted white with fake blood around her eyes and is never overly scary; she mainly screams and glares at people. Wrathful undead grandma is a bit nightmarish but delivers some silly lines in her big scene. And then there's the undead, disemboweled boyfriend who oozes cockroaches, the connection of which to the rest of the story is never remotely explained. His makeup is worse than most Halloween costumes and why he comes back from the dead when none of the other victims do so is never made clear. It's as if writer/director Brett Anstey threw together everything he remembered from a bunch of random horror movies in his screenplay. None of these shortcomings manage to overshadow the tired acting of lead actress Renee Willner, though. The funniest scene in the flick comes when she's being strangled by her undead boyfriend; her face contorts into a series of funny faces that resemble something out of a Warner Brothers cartoon. That scene alone is worth the price of admission. It's probably a testament to the lack of a budget that there wasn't a better take shot for this scene. The banshee is a rarely-explored possibility for horror films. I'm always hopeful when a new banshee-based flick comes along that it will be a good one. "Damned by Dawn" isn't that film, though. It combines elements from a long list of horror films ranging from "Army of Darkness" to "The Ring" to "Night of the Living Dead," but it never ventures onto original ground and it never develops the banshee herself. Silly, forgettable, disappointing stuff that will soon fade into deserved obscurity.
