CrawlerChunky In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Scarlet The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
amycrd After "Fear Of Clowns" this is the worst film I have ever had the misfortune to see.It narrowly beat "Fear Of Clowns" in that I forced myself to watch it through to the end. I wish I hadn't wasted valuable minutes of my life in doing so.Like many of you, I was tricked into watching it by the association with Wes Craven. Needless to say, I will not be tricked in the same fashion again.Very poor. So poor, that I remembered its name after all this time. This film is memorable only in its level of ineptitude.
kjm914a It's such a shame that the memory of the first, groundbreaking film, a gripping -- though super cheapie -- exploration of anomie and the subconscious, is in any way associated with this film, which I guess you have to say is not in any way a remake, although it appears that the filmmakers wanted to capitalize on the goodwill the original has accumulated over the years.So sad, it's too bad.I think the time is right to consider a remake of the original, but it's certainly not this misbegotten error. I would see an independent filmmaker -- maybe Inarritu or Guillermo del Toro -- taking the original story and really making a haunting re-visioning of the first film. But this ain't it.
Reiss Ferlance Carnival Of Souls 1998 was a film that I wanted to see for a very long time. I've seen the original Carnival Of Souls, which I'm a big fan of (that film's brilliant) so I wanted to see the 1998 one. The film (1998) is about a young woman named Alex Grant, as a young girl she witnessed her mother get murdered by a carnival clown named Louis Seagram, (he tried to rape Alex's mother and kill her) Alex's evidence in court puts Lewis in prison for 20 years. She then begins to have nightmares of Louis Segram and the carnival where she met him. This film is not as close as being better than to 1962 cult horror classic Carnival Of Souls. The 1998 film is classified as the one of the worst films ever made, but it's not completely bad. It's very confusing, there are loads of dream sequences in the movie,I was thinking to myself at some points 'Is this a dream.' Carnival Of Souls 1998 is far from being a five- star movie, It's a 2- star movie, by that I mean that it's quite watchable. The acting in this film is Okay. Larry Miller's performance as Louis Seagram is the best
colin flowerday carnival of souls what an insult to the original 1962 masterpiece this film is rotten to the core about as interesting as watching Anne Robinson on the weakest link, the film should have been canned before its release its sad they could not have remade a sequel to the 1962 original as you are gripped by that films scary scenes as no other movie does. I'm not going to waste my time here talking about crap like this I've put my copy of it on the drawer away not to be seen ever again. Don't WATCH IT as its trash so go out and buy carnival of souls sit back late one evening on your own no lights on and be ready to be scared out of your life i love the original movie it cant be beaten unlike this garbage movie, whats up with Herc Harvey he directed the 1962 original why has he made this movie that is rubbish cant he go back to the original idea and bring our friend from 1962 back to scare us to death once more? the more i look at carnival of souls 1998 the more shocked i am that Herc Harvey could churn out garbage like this why the hell didn't he make a sequel to the 1962 masterpiece? there are awful movies this one is the pits. CARNIVAL OF SOULS 1998 YOU ARE THE WEAKEST LINK MOVIE.................GOODBIE! -9999,9999,9999,9999,9999.
