Smartorhypo Highly Overrated But Still Good

Matylda Swan It is a whirlwind of delight --- attractive actors, stunning couture, spectacular sets and outrageous parties.

Zandra 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.

Youshouldntsaythat The movie starts with Hunter's (Brain Gallagher) daughter being killed by a drunk driver as she plays hopscotch on a two lane road in front of her house even though they had a drive way; Hunter witnesses his daughter's death, and now he seeks revenge. Well its not hard to figure out who the killer is, and why he is killing they give that away in the first 30mins. Since "Nobody Gets Out Alive" was not suspenseful, the movie should have had a brilliant plot, fantastic killing scenes, and decent acting...right; Wrong!The plot had a few holes in it; for example, how the Hunter's daughter was killed, very stupid. Also I did not make a connection to the main character, Jen. I actually was more attached to Jared, who sadly played a small roll. Out of all the death scenes, I only liked one, and the rest were very plain. The killer would of been better off using a gun; yes it was that bad. Not only were the death scenes plain, but they looked fake. The special effects were horrible.The acting was okay at times, but it was terrible when it counted the most, for instance, during the death scenes and when they were being chased.I rated this movie a 4 because it had potential, it was easy to follow, and some what entertaining. If the acting was more believable, and the death scenes a bit more unique it could have raise the score 3 to 4 points.~Was watched alone in the dark~

ersinkdotcom If there's one thing I can't stand it's when I watch a movie, hate it, and then view the "making of" featurette and gain respect and a different perspective on it. That's how I felt after watching the special features for "Nobody Gets Out Alive." Can a bad film be saved by the pure motivations and sincerity of the filmmakers? I say no, but you can definitely feel for them and try to give them credit where credit is due.It's the same set-up we always get with any of the countless "Friday the 13th" or "Sleepaway Camp" movies we've all seen over the years. A group of young adults head out into the woods for a weekend of camping, partying, revelry, and debauchery. You know, "What happens in the woods stays in the woods." Unfortunately, that's all too true thanks to a killer who takes his tragic loss out on any and everyone who dares enter his territory."Nobody Gets Out Alive" is an hour and seventeen minutes long. That's exactly one hour too long in my opinion. There's absolutely nothing original about this movie. Sure, the killing scenes are a bit more graphic than what we get with the standard "Scream" or "I Know What You Did Last Summer" fare. I'll admit that I did find a couple of them painful to watch. However, it doesn't make up for the tedious retread we suffer through here.Producer Deven Lobascio and writer / director / producer Jason Christopher set out to make an homage to the movies they grew up watching, and if you look at it strictly from that point of view, they were successful. It mimics everything from those movies. We've got the crazy killer; the sexually promiscuous couple who both die horrific deaths; the handicapped kid who you feel sorry for when he gets axed; and the virgin who survives at the end. The carnage never really ends, does it?One of the elements about slasher films that I love is the mystery of who the killer is. Movies like "Scream," "Urban Legend," "Prom Night," and even the newer "Sorority Row" come to mind. I probably would've given "Nobody Gets Out Alive" another star if the filmmakers kept this element a surprise here. Instead, they reveal who the killer is about 30 minutes into the film. To add insult to injury, it's exactly who you would think it is. I would warn this is a spoiler, but it isn't considering how the movie was made.In the usual fashion of these types of indie horror films, we get a five-minute cameo from a familiar face in the genre. This time we get Clint Howard playing a doctor at the beginning of the movie before disappearing completely.As it stands, "Nobody Gets Out Alive" is an hour and seventeen minutes of your life you'll never get back. You would've been better served re- watching any of the great slashers you were introduced to in your youth. All we get here is a carbon copy of everything done before that will leave you wanting the real deal.

jorgen-broms The last reviewer, who gave it a ten out of ten, for some reason was written by someone who has the same name as the person who actually did the special effects for this low-budget horror. Although they were actually decent, the film has nothing we haven't seen before. It suffered quite heavily from slow pacing and some of the dumbest decisions I've ever seen people do in a movie.Example: Wounded girl gets into car after running from crazy killer. Wounded girl tells driver (bloody and hysterical btw): Whatever you do don't stop, just drive. Driver says: There's someone on the road. I'm just gonna pull over...I mean, really?Us horror buffs may accept a lot of stupid decisions (going into dark basements etc) but some of the things people do in this movie is just taking it a bit far, yes?Only reason it gets a three is because there a couple of creative kills that I enjoyed. You may fast forward some in between the goodies though...
