Kattiera Nana I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.
Alicia I love this movie so much
ChanBot i must have seen a different film!!
Kaelan Mccaffrey Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
Paul Magne Haakonsen For some reason then "Old 37" had managed to elude me until 2017, which is a bit odd as it has both Kane Hodder and Bill Mosely on the cast list, two huge iconic horror names, and two actors that I do like in movies.So when I got the chance to sit down and watch "Old 37", I needed no convincing and I didn't even have to read the synopsis for the movie. All that was needed was the horror label and the fact that both Hodder and Mosely were starring in this movie.The pacing of the movie was somewhat of a mixed result. I especially liked how the movie did lay the groundwork for the setting from the very beginning. But the movie did follow the generic formula of how to make a horror movie, which was so clearly apparent, for better or worse. And it does slow down quite a lot during the first half of the movie in order to establish characters and background. That made it somewhat tedious, but then it gradually started to pick up pace again as Jon Roy (played by Kane Hodder) and Darryl (played by Bill Mosely) made a return to perform their ghastly endeavor. The cast in "Old 37" was good, especially because most of the faces appearing on the screen were new to me. And personally I do enjoy watching new performers on the screen, as they are not already associated with other roles in other movies. And having two horror icons in one movie needs no explanation.As for the characters in the movie, well I will say that the character gallery was quite diverse. Some characters more likable than others, naturally. However, the overall impression is that the characters could just as easily had been in any other horror movie, so there was a feeling of generic character build to some of them.There wasn't an abundance of special effects, much less CGI effects. But I will say that the practical effects that were in the movie were quite nice, especially the special effects make-up on Brooke, when she was found, that looked quite good. It was interesting to have Jon Roy cover his lower part of the face with a mask throughout the movie, but when his face was revealed it was somewhat of an anti-climatic reveal, because his face wasn't that scary or deformed."Old 37" was actually quite nicely filmed and edited, which made for a very enjoyable viewing pleasure. And that also made for a very good flow to the movie.The music score for the movie was actually quite good, and the music was quite fitting for the particular atmosphere that permeated the movie.I must admit that I had expected more mayhem and mutilation that what director Alan Smithee managed to deliver here with the help of writers Joe Landes and Paul Travers. And the ups and downs in the pacing of the movie was also somewhat of a setback for the overall enjoyment of the movie. "Old 37" wasn't an impressive or outstanding horror movie in any way, and not even the two iconic horror figures Hodder and Mosely could salvage this one.
theobeckett I stumbled on this film on Chiller TV and I remembered that I had seen a trailer at a horror convention last year. I actually got to meet 3 of the producers and the writer and they were cool. They explained the process of making this film, how long it took, what it was like on set and the falling out they had with the director. It seems that a lot of people below are assuming they know the situation because the director took an Alan Smithy credit that the film sucked, but that really isn't the case here. This film delivers on so many levels. The concept is brilliant, and frankly i felt like it was an elevated horror. Out of all the films coming out now that are remakes or about a giant spider, this had a mix between good teen drama and suspense. If you are looking for a straight slasher, this isn't the film for you, but open your mind to something bigger than just that. I also loved the music too...thought it was really fitting and creepy where it needed to be. just my two cents.
Jamie Bonnema A refreshing horror movie to watch in a genre that seems over commercialized, or over done recently. It's thrilling, captivating, and even has its funny moments. What I like most about OLD 37 is that the plot doesn't drag, yet the gore never fails. The plot of this movie is interesting because it plays into the idea of the anti-hero. I'm also a fan of the plot because it's not cliché in any way. Sometimes I think horror movies can borrow too many ideas from other horror films and it sort of seems like you're watching the same film over and over again. Have no fear, the creativity doesn't lack in this film. Nevertheless, your typical slashing will of course be present.Overall, YOU HAVE TO SEE IT. OLD 37 is the perfect film for Halloween and if you're a horror fan, it surely won't let you down. The opening scene will leave your stomach churning and the ending scene will leave you surprised and asking for more!
philarmitage21 Where to begin without spoiling too much?There is a prologue, then the opening titles (which feature a great score and an interesting credit:Directed by Alan Smithee), and it's all downhill from there.It becomes quickly apparent that things won't be very promising with almost immediate bad dialogue given to badly-written characters who do stupid things in unrealistic, only-in-movies cliché'd manners. The actors didn't really stand a chance with this script.Nothing works. Not the antagonists' motivations (revealed in numerous flashbacks) or their M.O., the unfortunate ''character development'' which takes up so much screen time and only succeeds in being incredibly unbelievable, (once again) cliché, uninteresting and unoriginal. Not the storyline, which throws in ''revelations'' that are completely unnecessary and illogical and doesn't bother trying to do anything remotely original. I could go on. NOTHING works.This is one of the worst films I've seen recently. It may sound harsh but I was marvelling at how much I disliked everything with every passing minute.This is lazy filmmaking. No attempt to try to do something original, or to create good, interesting characters. If there was, then something happened and it prompted the director to take his name off the credits.I can't blame him.
