if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

I watched Banshee Chapter because the topic had my interest. Actually, MK ultra is a real experiment that was done between years of 1953 and 1973. The story-line of the movie was very clear and easy to follow, but there were really bad mistakes of the movie. They were unreasonable, and not even related to the stupidity of any character. These mistakes made the movie unrealistic. There were also some stuff left unexplained at the end of the movie, this also made it unrealistic. Even though, I was really captured by the movie and its jump scares. Some scenes were so tense that I knew a few jump scares before coming. Though, they still made me jump. If it was also realistic in reasonable consideration, I would find the movie much better. What I can say is that watch it if you are interested in the subject matter of the movie and if you like creepy stuff. And watch it as a creepy thriller movie. Otherwise, watching the movie would be a waste of time for you.

I really enjoyed this movie.I thought Banshee Chapter was a very original movie and it was Very creepy and strange. This is a Horror movie done the right way.what makes this film work is its mystery.it has a very fascinating mystery that makes you want to keep watching so you can find out whats going on. I personally love movies like this, ones where the viewer has to figure things out. I Thought it was a very suspenseful movie and there were also some bizarre images in the movie. I'm sure if little kids saw this movie it would Freak them out.I mean some scenes freaked me out and I'm an adult.The Movie is about a Journalist Girl Called Ann played by (Katia Winter) that goes looking for a friend of hers who went missing after hearing weird radio like sounds And Music in his house. The boy and his friend went missing one after the other.The police suspected the boys friend for the disappearance but then he goes missing too so he stops being a suspect. The lead girl Ann thinks something else is going on and she doesn't think that the boys disappearing is any normal incident she thinks it has something to do with the weird radio noises they listened to before they disappeared.she also finds out about the government doing secret research experiments and she thinks the chemical the boys ingested may have something to do with the strange radio Broadcast. The girl finds audio footage of the two boys last moments together and she listens to it and tries to figure out whats going on.footage is also shown throughout the movie of people being experimented on in a laboratory by scientists.The girl meets up with a retired writer and he helps her to figure out what's going on and its not long before the two of them start hearing the creepy radio broadcast too and the girl thinks the experiments have something to do with it.Overall This is a good Movie and I liked it but there were some things that I found odd in the movie.I thought it was Odd that The lead girl seemed very comfortable walking around at night by herself most of the movie, its only until about half way through that she meets with the writer and he helps her and they walk around together looking for evidence, which I must also add is a bit odd because the girl Doesn't even know this man and yet she is still comfortable enough to walk around with him in the middle of the night?.she even goes to his house at one point and the guy starts giving her drinks and they drink together.I personally would not go to a mans house if I barely knew him and then start having drinks with him, he could put anything in your drink. As it Turned out Nothing happened but my point is something could have happened, you can never be too careful now a days.To end the review I will say this.This is not a Great film But it is a very interesting film mainly because of its mystery.The movie is also genuinely creepy and has that fear of the unknown feel about it which just goes to show you sometimes something you cant see is scarier than what you can see.This film was chilling and Creepy because the viewer never fully understands why the strange things are happening which is what makes this film work. overall I recommend it if you want to watch a movie that makes you think.I Thought it was an entertaining film.

The BANSHEE CHAPTER is a Half fiction/Half documentary horror film that involves a project developed by the U.S government called MKUltra. The project having already existed of course was nothing to be compared to what we see in the film, which implies injecting a drug to a number of random patients in order to make them hallucinate. But going further into analyzing it would require much more reading for the moment.Suggesting that the drug would make people more aware of their surroundings, it starts with a Young writer having been able through his contacts to put his hands on a dose of the said drug. Soon after he injects it, he disappears without leaving a trace. An old friend of his, reporter Anne Roland (The Lovely and Talented Katia Winter) sets out to uncover the truth about her friend's disappearance and about the drug by the same way. If you've seen a little of T.V series Dexter and Sleepy Hollow or if you already follow them you probably know Katia Winter more than i do at the time but i liked her in this one. THE BANSHEE CHAPTER being a Half fiction/Half truth investigation, i doubt that fans of this type of horror movies will get out of this one having found a new favorite but this is more than Worth the Watch imo. The movie relies a lot on mystery and suspense, showing us threats but only in a calculated dose that you won't see or understand who or what is stalking its protagonists really clearly. But it does it well. Will result of this a couple good scenes of anticipation, a kind of thing that not many mystery horror or even slashers have done as effectively as the Extreme John Carpenter's HALLOWEEN in 1978. If you watched Halloween, you know what anticipation i talk about. There were other movies but quite Frankly, i think that Banshee Chapter plots its scares really well. And ain't that all that matters in a film like this one?

This movie was by far one of the worst movies I've seen in my entire life. I'm a movie fanatic and have seen many many hundreds in my 35 years of life but this is definitely one of the top 10 worst movies I've ever seen. I have absolutely no clue what the heck I just watched and what it was about other than the MK-ULTRA experiments that were tested on civilians by the CIA. The plot summary of this movie is about journalist Anne Roland who tries to find out what happened to her friend and why he disappeared. This is never resolved as far as I can tell and if it was the writer and director did a poor job of doing so cause when it was over my thought was what happened to her missing friend? I'd give this movie no stars if I could but one is the lowest rating so therefore it gets one star. Thankfully it was short but even so I feel like I wasted an hour and twenty five minutes of my life watching this and after seeing it I left with a lot more questions than answers. My advice to you is skip this one unless you want to wonder what exactly it was you just watched.
