Movie Review: The Unseen
Summary: 3 Stars
(spoilers) "The Unseen" is about three female news reporters traveling to Northern California to document a festival. After finding no place left to stay, they accept the offer of a weird old guy at his house. There doesn't seem to be much, except for some foreshadowing here and there. Eventually, two of the women go out to do a report on the festival, while the other stays at the house, feeling a little sick. Not too long after, she is killed in a very cheesy murder scene. It looked like she was attacked by a vicious vacuum, because you just saw her getting tugged around, then pulled into the vent.
The movie doesn't go far from there. Another woman returns to the house. There's a small amount of suspense before she too is killed by having her scarf pulling into the vent while she picked up some fruit she knocked over. Whoever--or whatever--was pulling her scarf into the vent slammed her face against it a few times. I guess that killed her.
The third one eventually comes home. It took a while, because her lover came to see her. They talked about him and his bad knee and the girl told him she had an abortion. It was pretty boring. Back at the house, the two hosts were acting all weird, back and forth. I felt bad for the wife.
Finally, our heroine comes home, finding the male host down in the basement fixing a pipe of some sorts. She gets locked down there, and thus the "horror" begins. Though, it soon turns funny, as she and Junior--the unseen one, I guess--play a few games. This even drags on, but eventually, it gets sort of good in the end, between the father and that same girl. I don't know how the boyfriend, gets there, but there's a great twist involving his injured knee. I thought that was good. And the final ending was really creepy. I don't fully recommend this one, though. It's a bit of a disappointment, unless you are looking for a slow, too melodramatic movie.
