Movie Reviews of The Abandoned
Movie Review: The Viewer's Abandoned
Summary: 1 Stars
Do you run screaming when you see actors wearing white contact lenses and stringy hair in a dark house? Do you faint away when a movie spends more than thirty minutes doing nothing but showing the main character talking, talking to someone and then another 20 minutes showing her driving forever through forests and farmlands. And then when she finds a driver, he abruptly abandons her in a huge forest at night and then she goes searching for him, calling out his name and she somehow miraculously discovers an abandoned house? This movie was so numbingly boring at the beginning that I'll have to amit to fast-forwarding to the middle but then there was nothing remotely frightening. When will modern makers of horror films understand that in the year 2008, fear fanatics want something more to scare them than actors wearing white make-up, contact lenses and stringy hair to portray the dead. Also, how idoes an American woman, deserted in a black forest, miraculously come across a farm/mansion where ghosts reside? This flick is yet another in the Horrorfest series that proves to be appalling. A bad script, inept direction and performances torpedoes any suspense that could have been achieved.
Summary of The Abandoned
An American woman searching for her birth parents learns she has inherited a house in the middle of a forest in a remote area of Russia. It is the house where she was born. Abandoned and uninhabited for 40 years it stands in total disrepair and neglect. What she finds is more than an old house. She meets a mysterious man claiming to be her twin brother and together they find the house holds dangerous secrets to a past they don't even remember. They are forced to relive a series of horrifying events and shocking murders that occurred just after they were born and in the place where they were supposed to die.Runtime: 94 minsFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre: HORROR Rating: R UPC: 031398214106 Manufacturer No: 21410Horror DVD Video
