This really is one of the most stupid films I have seen in a while. If you're not snooze busting after an hour you will at the least be questioning all the mistakes and attention to detail that takes place this rather dull and not very interesting movie.
1) Explosion at the petrol station, the windows are blown out in the van. Next scene, the windows are fine 2) A man is on the run, its now gone national. Yet man manages to drive through a police convoy, and not only that, he has blood all over his face and top! 3) Very same man has been shot, but oh no, that very same man is fine now 4) Man in car break through barrier, bearing in mind, this is an FBI operation, barrier has 2 only two cars. These cops are so dumb that don't they think to shoot the tires, oh no, in a typical scooby fashion, they get back in the cars and chase the car. 5) So these very same dumb cops are following car with damaged steering it must be said, all the while an unknown world appears, growing bigger in front of our very eyes, but these dumb cops are so committed to solving the crime they fail to notice this happening, instead, when the car finally crashes they point guns at the car, not even looking at the miracle scenes that have just happened. 6) Almost missed this one, 1st 30 mins are focused on a cult, then you don't hear or see them again.
This really is a dumb movie! I went in not knowing anything about it. I shouldn't have bothered. Its total garbage. 4 is a bit too generous of a score. But I did like some of the cinematography.
Hold on, hold on, first off I've waited a long long time for this movie but it's left way more questions than answers! Jigsaw could've been so much better than it was though not the worst of the latter Saw movies it's far from being the best,so let's start with the unanswered questions, (SPOILER ALERT)
So it turns out 10 years ago a mistake at the hospital meant John Kramer never had a brain tumor so he endured painful chemotherapy for nothing! So fast forward 10 years another game is started by Jigsaw (John Kramer) but it's not Jigsaw setting the game its another protagonist who Jigsaw saved from his game 10 years previous & he's the one that mixed up John Kramers results in the hospital! So this new protagonist as started a game by himself copying the game he himself was in 10 years previous.It turns out John Kramer is dead but it never explains how! Did he have a tumour or not? & If this new protagonist as been with Jigsaw from the beginning why doesn't the movie explain what happened to Dr Gordon as in previous Saw movies he was the one with Jigsaw all along,then we come to where the movie is mostly shot it's a barn belonging to John Kramers wife Jill Tuck so how does the new protagonist get to use this barn & set all the traps without Jill Tuck knowing? And Dr Gordon said he was carrying on John Kramers legacy in Saw 3D at the end of that movie Dr Gordon as his helpers so was this new protagonist one of them?...i could go on & on with all the unanswered questions so I'll just leave it upto you to watch the movie see if you can answer them!
College student Ranae (Madeline Conway), a bit of a bundle of damaged goods thanks to her losing her grip a tad due to her mother’s recent demise…she also just happens to be the lucky babysitter that gets to watch the infant child of a family with a tragic past. As fate would have it, she soon begins to have fevered nightmares, seeing strange beings in the surrounding woods, receiving terrifying photos on her phone, and witnessing horrific visions of the child in her care meeting it’s grizzly demise…and even the presence of her friends who arrive on the scene to check up on her helps abate this psychotronic tomfoolery…in fact they soon fall victim to it as well! Can Ranae manage to face her own demons and whatever the hell is haunting that god damned house and survive the night?
The Nursery is a bit of a surprise honestly; I was expecting some sort of half-assed budget Conjuring clone…but instead I got a great haunted house semi-throwback fright flick that starts as a nicely handled slow burn, then becomes a spookshow par excellence…and the pacing never falters during either of these disparate storytelling styles. Besides a nice bit of world building you get characters that even when they are one dimensional are played with great skill by actors that are both personable and engaging (Claudio Parrone Jr. as the boorish Jeremy, Carly Rae James Sauer as the over-sexed Grace, and Emmaline Friederichs as the surrogate mother figure Claista respectively) so you actually give a damn about them when the supernatural shit hits the fan. Nowhere does this shine the brightest than with the aforementioned Conway as our troubled heroine Ranae…she is an instantly likable presence, and her delivery is natural and devoid of over-the-top histrionics (sure she gets upset, but it never gets cartoonish). Finally, the house where the film was shot is fantastic; an abode comprised of unconventional angles and hard to pin down sense of being dated that adds to the outre aesthetics perfectly!
The Nursery is a ghost story done right; a heady cocktail of spirits, metaphysical pondering, and straight up murder biz that absolutely should not be missed by horror hounds that dig on a great haunted house yarn!
Zach sets out into the wildness of the Georgia Shoals to prove his survival skills for 60 days. Before too long, finding clean water and sufficient scavenged food are the least of his worries when disturbing noises and events disturb his lonely challenge.Now this guy Zach either as to be the coolest man on earth when frightened & being terrorised by ghosts screaming all night & grabbing his neck or sticking its head into his shelter & screaming into the camera or Zack (Brent Mcgee) as to be the worst actor at conveying terror in movie history! Now for every night this ghost woman/demon or whatever the hell its supposed to be is terrorising Zack but all he keeps talking about is "i need to eat today" "i need to find some beetles to eat"! We get it Zack you were making a survival video but you're being terrorised by a creepy spook my friend nobody is gonna care about the kind of animals you can eat while in survival mode & you've been followed every night for over 2 weeks so why do you keep saying "I'm definitely being followed" ...all i kept hoping for was the spook to put poor deluded Zack out of his misery!
