another Christian propaganda movie

It's true that not all horror films serve as mouthpieces for Christianity-there are even a few examples that condemn church leaders-but nearly any horror film that touches on the supernatural will either condemn the faithless ( The Conjuring, The Rite ), frame non-Jesus religions as spooky (The Wicker Man, The Exorcist, Sinister ), or claim that Biblical prophecy is coming to pass (Legion, The Omen). Even slasher films with no ties to religion often dabble in moralistic tropes against drugs, premarital sex, or doing anything the least bit salacious.But this was a dull movie with no horror scenes. Simply horrible.

I fell for it again because it was sold to me under false pretence

Lat time I watched a christian film tricking you to watch it under the guise of horror/thriller, I sat through was just as empty and boring as this one. Fortunately I was doing some painting whilst this was on in the background.At no point at all was it interesting, captivating or clever. Somehow I waited if there would be a twist. Nope. Just christians trying to reel you in under false pretences.The camera work was quite good actually, the acting was dismal, even though the actors didn't have much to work with, so they did their best.Why not make an overtly christian movie, with colour, love, proper story lines, teaching whilst being entertaining?I watched some overtly christian films as a kid, like Jesus of Nazareth and found them highly interesting. Not enough to make me believe but I didn't get bored and it was entertaining historically. Plus I knew what it was about. No tricks needed.Happy to say that I am still a non believer and even more so after this really bad excuse of veiled preaching. I don't like being duped.Please just own up to it, put into the title or the description, that this is a christian film. I wonder why the makers of this movie haven't learned from their own film's meaning?

That's a bit dull

Having seen that the director doesn't do bad films, I kept sitting through it hoping to be enthralled & entertained, but it never came.I got to the halfway point before giving up.The story upto where I aborted was, couple host party, guest wears cake, invites them to the woods, they goto the woods, get lost, bloke in a mask steapsbthe wife, bloke gets lost again, finda a friend, finds some birds who can sing, has something to eat with them, "Oh Good God, this is boring, abort abort".So at that point I gave up & read a book about a bird who lived in her own in the Dales. It was riveting. Unlike this.If I can watch an entire film, but don't enjoy it, I give it a 5 because I watched it all.This film, though of a high production quality, I'd possibly have given lower than a 4, but because of the coin spent on it, it gets a solid Four.
