The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

This movie looked so promising in the beginning and had potential, but it was never given chance to fully become what it could have.The movie is dark and gloomy, which is nice for this type of movie. And the creatures in the movie looked cool, although there was far too much inspiration "borrowed" from Clive Barker's "Hellraiser" franchise. And also the big creature in "Necromentia" seemed to be a replica of the "Nemesis" monster from the "Resident Evil 3" game (and/or "Resident Evil: Apocalypse" movie).As for the cast and acting, well nothing bad here. Good performances all together.The story was fairly good up until halfway through the movie, then it lost its breath and the movie suffered horribly from it. The movie grew stale and boring at that point. But I still sat through the entire movie.The ending? Well it did tie up the circle of the story throughout the movie. But nothing breathtaking or spectacular. And also there were no scares throughout the movie. I was constantly waiting for something grand to happen. Unfortunately, it never did."Necromentia" is not one of the better horror movies out there, and it certainly is not among the worst either. Just below mediocre. Suitable if you are bored an evening and got nothing better to watch...

I have to say I don't think I got it all. I enjoyed it though and after I digest it awhile I'll probably watch it a second time. There's a lot of jumping around as far as the timeline which I don't like but now that I've got the basics of the story I think in a second watching it will all fit together. Someone mentioned the timeline couldn't work but there was one point where the demon Morbius tells travis something like "you're living in two timelines" I need to figure that out! I get why Morbius wants revenge and I get why Travis wants to find his brother but I don't get how the two fit together or how Travis seems to know Morbius from when he was alive. And Suicidal Pigman, where did he come from? Why is he involved? Yes a second viewing is defiantly in order here! One thing that bugged me was the demonetization of ketamine. That's what she gave him with her payment, not poison as someone mentioned. Ketamine is a veterinary sedative, sometimes used recreationally by humans as it has dissociative effects. Usually snorted but sometimes injected by those looking for a full on trip of enlightenment. I have never heard of anyone using it to "get off heroin as mentioned in this movie. It isn't known for "bad trips" but I guess maybe it's used here to show a breakdown of barriers between the worlds? Somehow it came across to me as "Ketamine is bad" which overall I don't think it's thought of that way. He also came out of it way too fast, injecting into his jugular like he did would knock him out for many hours! Maybe it can also be explained away y the occult aspect of his trip? I thought the acting was good, the feel of the movie was just right and I think if I figure the story out, it's a decent one! It managed to keep me interested which is always good and it's got me thinking afterwards which is also good. FX were OK, not over the top which is almost refreshing these days. Nothing made me cringe except maybe where he cut her finger. The FX were realistic though so they get a 10 from me. As for being full of gore or the sickest movie ever, can't go that far, I've seen much worse but for me i'd rather see like this because there was a reason for everything, not just gore for gores sake. For now I give it a 7 out of 10 but I may come back and re- rate it after I watch it again.

The opening scene of this movie was intriguing, so I decided to watch it. As the movie progresses, there are some good points and some dull moments, but either way, the plot keeps your attention. The writers of this script must have smoked some good weed, played a good game of World of Warcraft, and then wrote this script as they were crashing from their high.The acting in this movie was good; very believable. Even the kid who played the gimp little brother did a good job. As did the never-talking pig that convinced the gimp to commit suicide. Everybody did a fine job. Also, I liked the voices of the demons. I didn't feel threatened by them, nor was I ever scared but it was a really cool sound effect; imagine Megatron from the 80's Transformers cartoon but speaking in goth rather than children's entertainment.The lighting and other atmosphere was well-done. Hell, as depicted in this movie, is much more pleasant than your traditional flames in a cave with red glows. It's still a scary place, but not the usual Hell we're used to seeing, which is nice.I didn't feel much emotion in this movie. The relationship between the brothers was probably the best developed, so I felt for them the most. The cheating girlfriend and her new boyfriend was okay. It made me dislike the new boyfriend. I most empathized with Morbius. Poor guy...his cheating girlfriend dumped him for a loser who would end up sleeping with her corpse. Nasty! If you happen to see this at the Red Box, pick it up and enjoy it as a lullaby for bed time. If you fall asleep, start it up the next day. It's worth a watch, at least as background ambiance while playing World of Warcraft.

I will first start off by saying after reading all the negative comments left by others, they evidently do not understand the true rituals of necromancy and dimensions that demons and our subconscious and souls use. If you are really into the "true" occult and the "truth" about hell, and demons, then this movie is for you ! The writer(s) and or Director(s) must have an understanding in the real horror that really exists in this world and dimensions in the beyond. Also, if you watch the movie a second time and pick up on every little detail, then it really comes full circle. I just assume that most people that down-rate this film have simple minds and don't understand a complex movie such as this and would rather watch a crappy movie where the writers and directors say "here is your 80+ minute movie that you cant use your own imagination or thoughts on cause it is already bluntly pointed out for you, so sit back, waste your time, and enjoy your crappy movie; you mindless sheep !" That sums up almost ALL horror movies now-a-days. On the other hand, this movie is excellent ! 10 stars !
