Bleed (2016)
I want the hour and twenty-minutes I wasted on this back, please.
"Bleed" is the sort of film you might find in a cheap, paper case tucked way in the "Discount" section of a dollar store, and even then I would't say it'd be worth the price. Any basic description I've seen for this film makes it sound like a typical, low-budget "hunting ghosts in haunted building' film, which is most certainly isn't. This film attempts to take that idea and recreate it using a forced, confusing story line that leaves it's viewer bored and hungry for something better.
The film starts with a typical horror movie trope, as most do. The "Couple moving to new place to start a new life" is a story you may have heard before. From there on it then drags you into a story that is seemingly unique but that feels poorly written and rushed. What was, I assume, meant to be something new and unique in a genre filled with familiar ideas turned into a steaming, messy pile of poor acting, forced story, and endless disappointment.
All in all I'm surprised anybody actually looked at this, said it was good for release, and then actually released it to the unsuspecting public. It's cruel, really.
The Rezort (2015)
Nothing Spectacular.
I wouldn't go as far as to say it's a bad film but I certainly wouldn't run out and suggest it. As far as zombie films goes this one is dull and lifeless. Zombies, conspiracies, human versus human, it's all present and it's all very predictable. The characters are very two-dimensional and the story has been heard of again and again. The acting isn't terrible and the effects are nice. It wasn't an unenjoyable experience, but it's definitely forgettable. If you're looking for a rush I'd look elsewhere. If you're looking for a fright this isn't one for you. If you're looking for originality you're out of luck. If you're in it for cheesy, simplistic zombie drama it might just be for you.
