Truly Dreadful Film

Such a frustrating disappointment

Sadly Over-hyped

Lack of good storyline.

This movie is one of the dumbest, dullest movie I've ever seen... It's slow paced... Dragging itself for more than an hour. It tells the story of seven people that where involved in a bomb explosion, after one of the seven, the priest, takes revenge on the soldiers that, by misfortune, kills his daughter... They stuck in a purgatory, that resembles London, but where they are the last survivors... with the exception of someone or something that is preying on them...This movie lacks almost everything... too bad, because the actors themselves are not that bad. To avoid at any cost... if you want to see something like this, but more appealing, try Soul Survivors or Dead End

I've read some of the reviews and would like to say "watch the film BEFORE you write your crap". OK, yet another zombie (or zomb-ish)Brit Flick, with the traditional "you might as well give up and shoot yourself" ending! I liked the way detail was revealed, which explained how the characters came to be there. Assembling the story in chronological order kept me amused through the film. Understanding the whole thing will take another viewing. The characters were complex, plausible and well thought out and the acting was excellent. How did the director manage to empty London, or create the illusion of an empty London? Anyway, yet another example of a British director making a brilliant film on a shoestring budget.

I despair for the British horror film genre. I really do.In the space of just a few weeks I've watched this and Dead Cert, two prime examples of films that had promising premises but totally ballsed it up with inept direction and editing, lousy dialogue and rounded off with some truly pathetic acting.I grew up in the 60's and 70's watching delights such as The Abominable Dr Phibes, Dr Terror's House of Horrors, Asylum, From Beyond The Grave, Tales From The Crypt, Frightmare, House of Whipcord, Scream and Scream Again, Theatre of Blood and many more.These films had real actors, decent scripts, filmmakers who knew and understood the genre, not fly-by-nights trying to make a quick buck by dolling out any old rubbish.Apart from Severance I haven't seen a decent British horror film in ages, and if today's filmmakers keep serving up crap like The Last Seven then my despair looks set to continue.The Last Seven is amateur night crap, avoid!

Reading the synopsis I had quite high hopes for this movie which was rapidly vanishing after the first 15 minutes which consisted of a bloke walking around the deserted streets of London's financial district. The long drawn out fifteen minutes of nothingness may impress someone who has never walked those same central London streets at Dawn on a Sunday morning but it doesn't really work for someone who has. I got the distinct impression the makers were trying to force a point here which went way past its premise of a deserted major City. The obviousness of it had me concerned for the rest of the movie.Eventually our lone walker meets up with a trio, and they meet up with another trio and from there on in there's a lot of long drawn out scenes with intermittent quick flash editing that was intended to scare or intrigue. Im not really sure which but it didn't work.While I have no doubt most of the seven cast have decent acting abilities, their performances were wooden. Mind you its not as if they had anything meaty to really bounce off so those performances were really down to the directors vision. You cant just put some people in front of a camera, give them some lines and hope for magic, particularly with a movie like this which should provoke the audiences senses. Then again a number of lines in the script are quite appalling, as if they were written by a secondary school drama club. But surely the director must have known those lines were just plain bad and could have done something about them.For me the movie just plodded along until it came to a point where I was jeering for it to end. I had twigged on quite early their particular circumstance but how it lead to that I didn't know until the very end, so I do give the makers some points for that. In general though it was a rather garbled affair. Yes, it has a sense of continuity but it wasn't glued together very well. Its a movie that may very well have looked just smashing on paper, but hasn't translated so well to the screen.As indie movies go it is by no means the worst, far from it. Its shot quite well, does have some atmosphere, and can keep you interested. If you haven't seen something in this genre before it may well keep you very interested. But I've seen a lot of these psychological horrors flicks and this one falls short of the mark. Compared to another one I reviewed 'The Broken' now there's a movie that really gets to you on a psychological level. One of the death scenes in that movie still makes me feel uncomfortable a year after watching it. There no gore, its just incredibly moving? or disturbing? I cant really describe what it is. If The Broken cant scare you nothing will.I cant recommend the movie and I cant not recommend it. As I said, if you haven't seen this type of flick before you may very well enjoy it.
