It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

This indie horror actually showed potential but ruined any hope of it being a decent film due to awful pacing.This is one of those movies where nothing happens, nothing happens, nothing happens *Bam* everything happens in a short space of time annnnnd roll credits.Telling a story of a group of 20 somethings hanging out at a lake cabin who come under attack by an unknown force (Which is still pretty unknown after the credits have finished) A mix of decent acting and bad, decent sfx and awful this mixed bag simply didn't deliver despite showing promise.The Good: Couple of decent performances Idea wasn't terrible The Bad:Some bad acting Badly rushed Feels incomplete Things I Learnt From This Movie: A person throwing up is justification to shoot them Baby poop can make bears rabid, botulism bears!

I saw this movie, despite the reviews, because 1) Netflix in Norway has run out of horrors, and 2) Apple in Norway has run out of horrors as well. I was disappointed. It started out nicely with a couple of well-shaped ladies in bikinis. But from there it just went downhill. No more bikinis to speak of, and no horror or gore.Mind you, the cover shot that made me rent this, a lady that appears to have halfway eaten an octopus, is nowhere to be seen in this movie. You'll see something that appears to be lobster legs from the mouth of a fat guy, in the shadow, but that's about it.The acting is extraordinarily bad. Except, maybe, from the guy who looks like he is from India or something.I can assure you that I will never watch this movie again. And I watch most movies at least twice.

First- I'm sure Friends and Family put 10 stars, but they are just as crazy as the people that made this movie..... This movie stinks.Didn't walk out on it, but really would have liked too.I thought the acting was a joke. The directors need better sense of who they put in their film. Low budget and all, there is no excuse for "i'm reading from my lines and reading 1 word at a time". Wasn't there actors from a film school or a drama club you could have hired?Horrible and I wouldn't recommend this. I would give it 2 thumbs down and only that because I ran out of thumbs.Do yourself a favour and use your money for something else.The script is terrible and there is no direction. The only good thing about this movie was the ending when the screen went black. Can't say anything else about this horrible movie or else I would have to relive it.

I attended the private screening in Edmonton of this film and, to be honest, went in with low expectations since I had heard it was a very low budget film made with a local crew and local talent. Perhaps I just don't have much faith in Edmonton and surrounding area but for whatever reason, I didn't expect much. To my (and my wife's) surprise, The Corrupted was a well made, and well scripted film that held my interest throughout it's 75 minutes.Because of the low budget, the special effects weren't terribly realistic but it was easy to look past that and concentrate on what the filmmakers were trying to convey. The dialogue moved the story along well and the screenwriters were able to make a few philosophical discussions throughout the movie without boring the audience.While not all of the cast will move on to bigger things, most of the main actors performed their parts admirably and, assuming they can rise above the local scene, have bright futures ahead of them. The ending sets up an obvious sequel so I really hope this film makes enough money to warrant producing a second film.All too often, low budget, entirely independent films are simply not good for more reasons than just not having enough money to do more. The Corrupted is an enjoyable movie regardless of its budget and I imagine the filmmakers have a successful career ahead of them.
