Plot so thin, it passes unnoticed.

Fantastic!

Don't listen to the negative reviews

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

I got this movie in a 4 pack for 5 bucks, so I wasn't expecting much. Heck, I was surprised it was even a full length film. The premise is pretty simple, a typical "this monster has killed my family member now I'm going to go on a big quest to find out more about it and(stop reading if you don't want to know the ending" in the end I will kill it" pretty standard stuff. so, when I popped it into my lap top, I had no expectations what so ever. I was completely shocked when it actually showed potential. the deaths were kind of cool, the acting was better than some big budget crap, and hey (spoiler) you get to see some glee (I think) star die painfully. Oh, and there are boobs. I put and emphasis on that because, it seems like in every bloody Mary scene, someones naked. An interesting twist on a classic myth, but hey, apparently that works for some people, as in they actually see something in the mirror trying the movies method, so to each his own I suppose. in the end, I have three complaints about the movie (spoiler alert!) 1. YOU NEVER SEE BLOODY MARY! well, her face at least. If my memory is correct (which it may not), her face is always hidden. Whats up with that? 2. The ending sucks. basically all it is (spoiler alert): Main character smashes the mirror. Thats it. Well, most of it at least, some other crap happens also, but thats the gist. and 3 (really major spoiler): What the h*** is with the creepy dude who serves Mary? I just didn't get it. But, all in all, its a good movie, pretty scary, has some really good moments (the opening is freaking awesome), and all in all, is worth buying.

By the summary quote I mean that this film is not a stellar piece of cinema, but merely serviceable. Much like Candyman, if a person stands in front of a mirror and utters the name of Bloody Mary - actually saying "I believe in Bloody Mary" - a number of times, then the titled hag makes her appearance. Rather then a man with a hook for a hand, Bloody Mary is ten times scarier than Tony Todd - without the deep, hollow voice, mind you.Director Richard Valentine obviously has a sense for frights, as he uses lighting and creepy makeup effects to administer fear. Bloody Mary was scary throughout, much creepier than Candyman, and Valentine is the person to laud for this.The story centers on an asylum where a beautiful nameless woman (Bloody Mary) was beaten and escaped from several decades ago. In the present time, a group of nurses play the game of Bloody Mary with one becoming obsessed with the charade while the others girls grow weary. When Jessica Lous is attacked by Bloody Mary and subsequently labeled as missing, her sister Kim Tyler begins her own investigation.VIOLENCE: $$$ (There is plenty of violence in this film, but not of the gratuitous variety. Bloody Mary has a thing for gouging out a person's eyes, and Valentine shows us this on several occasions - although not on par with the terrible and tasteless stuff of Eli Roth).NUDITY: $$$$ (Although the gore isn't of the gratuitous variety, the nudity sure is. When a girl calls on Bloody Mary in the mirror, she must be stark naked in the process. This plot detail allows the viewer looks at Jessica Lous and Danni Hamilton. Actress/producer Kim Tyler steps out of a shower for no other reason but for a shot of breasts. There is even a backside shot of a male artist who gets killed by Bloody Mary, while he paints in the buff).STORY: $$ (The weakest part of this film is the story. The way the asylum is operated was handled quite weakly by Valentine. The dialogue wasn't very good either and the character building wasn't very strong. Valentine failed to create a character that we could pull for, as Kim Tyler was hard to like).ACTING: $$ (Not very strong either. Valentine's direction is the saving grace to this film, but Danni Hamilton shows promise as an up and coming actress. She clearly outshines the rest of the cast with her demented-deceiving character. The two actor/producers, Kim Tyler and Matt Borlenghi, aren't that great of thespians. Jessica Lous did an adequate job as the naive little sister of Kim Tyler's character, but she was the first to die at the hands of Bloody Mary).

i guess this movie is OK.it isn't scary,but it does have a creepiness vibe going at times.it's low budget,and it has a gritty look to it.there's not a lot of realism in this movie.by that,i don't mean the supernatural ghostly aspect,because of course that is far fetched(at least i hope so).rather,the lack of realism is in how the characters behave.it just doesn't ring true.at least,i don't think so.i didn't find a problem with the acting.i mean,it wasn't stellar,but i've seen a lot worse.if you're a gore hound,this movie should satisfy you.there's lots of blood,though the movie isn't as graphic as it could have been.there's a fair amount of nudity,some of it pointless.well,all of it, really.and if you're looking for originality,you might want to look elsewhere.this movie has been done before,and the setting is nothing new.overall,i guess i'm indifferent to the movie.as a result,i give Bloody Mary a 5/10

I tried to go in watching the movie with as much unbiased attitude as I can (considering this sounded like a rehash of Candyman meets the Ring this was not easy). Imagine my surprise when I found myself engrossed in an extremely well done horror film! I was never bored for one second, and there were quite a few times I was genuinely scared. This says a lot. In fact I think I enjoyed this film more than some of the big budget horror films of recent years.The team did a really impressive job of working with an unknown case with a very limited budget. The acting caliber was very high and the special effects were used sparingly but effectively.No, this is not 'reinventing the genre'. It is just a nice little film that is eerie, has an interesting plot, decent acting and some real good scares.check it out!
