It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.

What this film is NOT: Funny, Entertaining, Well actedWhat this film is: Terrible, Predictable, Stupid.As another reviewer rightly said the lead 'actor' of this movie was incredibly annoying, it's possible it could have been better with another actor, in between being too enthusiastic and excited to being overly panicking and pathetically crying the scenes felt annoying, boring and painfully dragged out. But unfortunately I endured to see the movie out (instead of turning it off). I will some it up below for those interested and save and hour and a half or so of your lives.============== SPOILERS ==============So we have this complete loser, annoying douche, who is sponging off his girlfriends parents, hires this ridiculous team called 'fear, inc', despite his friends and girlfriend warning against it (because fear inc are crazy or something stupid), being the complete douche that he is, he hires them anyway. His friends who are staying the weekend freak out, they get separated (this even feels stupid to explain). Anyway there are stupidly predictable twists, and like 'The Game' the movie which they mention in the film, its all a gag that his friends and girlfriend are in on, but it's too late because douchebag accidentally kills one of the Fear inc team, they go to bury the body and Fear inc find him and kill his girlfriend...But again THAT was all part of the gag! Yay! How predictable. Then the ultimate predictability which I hoped they wouldn't go for because it made a less than average film go full retard, when the Fear inc people kill him and all his friends all of a sudden, for no reason, and we as viewers are supposed to believe that there could be a company that would just go around killing people so extravagantly and elaborately without getting caught or even suspected, despite people dying after hiring them and people knowing about them. This twist was stupid and unnecessary.I wish I had just re-watched 'The Game' (this film does the twists the right way) or maybe even just watched some paint dry.

Not all independent films are good or worthy of cult status. This movie falls solidly into that category. It tries so hard, too hard, to be worthy of cult status, it's so evident it's trying; though, it just turns out to be very trying.What you have is a sound premise a horror fan who has become desensitised to horror. He's such a fan he takes his girlfriend to haunted houses on Date Night and predicts when and where the scares are going to come while laughing continuously. The character is very annoying and rather humourless, if he was to resemble snot-girl from The Blair Witch Project then Lucas Neff does a fantastic job of creating a lead character you're just praying and hoping to be killed. If not, then his acting skills are lacking or the Director, Vincent Mascaile, had a warped vision for this movie.So the writer Luke Barnett adds the element of Fear Inc. a company who, when hired, come to scare the proverbial crap out of you. This now lands in the "The Game"'s field of expertise, which actually gets a mention in the movie. If you're going to carry out a movie in the same magnitude of that film it should be just as good and as convoluted, however, it isn'tThere are a lot of missed opportunities in this movie, which could have elevated it to at least watchable, if not enjoyable, and possibly to cult status, though a lot of work needed to be done to get to that destination.Once you realise what Fear Inc. do, which is given away at the start and in a monologue before the scares even begin then the surprise and possibility of the situations being real plummet into the farcical. You can see the twists coming as the director and writer call their punches before they throw them. The film would have been stronger had the viewer not known Fear Inc.'s agenda. This would have led them to continually wonder if our hero's the victims were in any danger. It's pretty much impossible to create tension when you know nothing is at stake as it's all playacting.Apart from Lucas Neff's character, all the other cast have believable and relatable characters, with the exception of Caitlin Stacey, who portrays Joe's girlfriend, Lindsey. Even though Stacey is one of the strongest actors in the line-up, I couldn't help but wonder why this strong woman was still attached to the waste-of-space Joe. There was no chemistry between them and this causes an imbalance in the plausibility of the movie; even more so when you learn it's her and his friends who have hired Fear Inc.This movie is labeled as a Horror - it's not - a Comedy - it's not - a Thriller - it's not that thrilling, but this is as close to a decent description as any.Should you watch this movie? No go and watch The Game, The Scream box set, The Saw box set, Deliverance, and Southern Comfort, which seems to be the movies this is roughly based on. All of which are better than this film... even the SAW series from III upwards.

I'll be honest, I suspected about the plot twist in the movie since I read the synopsis, sounded a lot like a horror version of David Fincher's The Game (1997), and I was right but this one has a smaller budget.In Fear, Inc. we follow a group of young adults, the main character is one of the most annoying guys I've seen on a horror film, it's so easy to hate him. He contacts a company that creates scary moments and then who saw The Game know what's going on. I have mixed feelings about it! The acting is poor, the cast look a bit amateur, however I've seen worse on another movies. The horror sequences are okay and the plot is amazing for the viewers who haven't watched the David Fincher's movie, but predictable for who has seen it. I loved the metalanguage and the numerous references to another films, sounded a bit like Scream (1996).Fear, Inc. is watchable, can be fresh and a funny surprise for some people and just okay for another, unfortunately the writers ruined the ending.Rate: 5/10

The main actor is like high all the time, he thinks is funny but he actually is not. It Is all obvious. I hate when something like this happens because it is a waste of time. Im tired of movies that are not good, I'm tired of movies that the end is not understood. In this case, i watched it for 1 hour and i stopped it. I swear i couldn't finish it. They have a awesome house to get high and get laid (terrific), but they should have done a drama movie instead of a comedy-horror movie. I don't know how a movie like this has 6 points of review. I don't remember me laughing with anything that has passed in Fear, INC. I think the idea is good but the actors are not for this movie.
