Nessieldwi Very interesting film. Was caught on the premise when seeing the trailer but unsure as to what the outcome would be for the showing. As it turns out, it was a very good film.

Hayden Kane There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes

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.

Jakoba True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Platypuschow The Shadows is one of those Youtube movies I picked to kill 90 minutes and another embarrassment that I wish that I hadn't.Telling the story of a group of friends who after a boat crash find themselves taking refuge in a seemingly haunted light house.The plot makes very little sense, the execution is dreadful, the movie is often so dark you miss whats going on altogether and there are plenty of scenes that are unintentionally hilarious.Pitiful attempt at a horror which is also labelled as a mystery and a er....romance!? The Good: The setting, when you can actually see it The Bad: Awful sound editing Dull characters Why does such a great setting look so drab? Poor soundtrack Laughable soap level acting Ridiculous cgi Things I learnt from this movie: Planks nailed to a door can be easily lifted off If you're already dead and a ghost you can't die....except that guy.......and that girl Everyone in fear instinctively will recite the bible verse regarding fearing no evil Cheating protagonists seem to be a common norm now in the movie industry

hwg1957-102-265704 Watching a bunch of dull characters mainly in one room screaming and behaving stupidly for 1 hour 29 minutes can be a trying experience and this was certainly that. It also made no sense whatsoever. It seemed more like a soap opera with horror bits thrown in to pad out the time. After trekking my laborious way through it hoping for some clarity to emerge one never knew what The Shadows were, whether the characters were dead and what the ending meant. Apparently The Shadows take you and you never come back but that is all the character development they get. The film is not helped by the acting. It does have an effective use of the song 'I Dreamt That I Dwelt In Marble Halls' over the opening credits and the sound was quite atmospheric, credit to Darcel Walker but apart from that the movie should go back to the shadows (and never come back).

guitargirl-44720 I wish I'd read Paul M H's review before spending time on this film. His review describes this movie perfectly. The story is weak. The scenery is weak. The actors tried, bless their hearts, but there really wasn't much for them to work with. It was hard to care about any of them. There really isn't much else to say about this film, except that you may do better find an alternate.I would stop typing, but IMDb won't post my review because I didn't provide enough sentences/characters. So I will type on to save someone else 89 minutes of life that is better spent elsewhere. I would prefer to keep this short and sweet, but, alas, the website will not permit such brevity.So, if you like weak stories, dark and simple scenery, scripts that don't set the scene, unbelievable characters that come from nowhere, have at it!

Paul Magne Haakonsen "The Shadows" is listed as a movie under horror, mystery and thriller. But wow, this was a snoozefest of untold magnitude. I started drifted away from the movie early on, and the movie never managed to fully captivate me or lure me back in.Five friends are stuck at an old lighthouse, trapped by circumstance and trapped by a storm. They soon start having to face their own dark secrets and fears.Right... Well, the storyline seemed to have potential and might have worked on paper. But director Sabrina Mansfield failed to bring about a properly entertaining movie.The characters in the movie were one-dimensional and you never even once connected to anyone of them. And the cast, while trying their very best, just didn't have anything tangible to work with."The Shadows" is an excruciating movie to get through given its slow pace, inadequate storyline and lack of enthralling characters. "The Shadows" should stay in the shadows, shrouded and hidden away.If you enjoy a proper mystery then "The Shadows" should not be your first of movie choices.
