Tedious horror

I couldn't say this is the worst horror film I've watched, because frankly I've watched some doozys in my time, but this was so boring. The acting, particularly from the main character, was so boring. Watching him try to find his words while talking to his daughter was like watching a kettle boil. The story itself had potential, but it needed a charismatic actor to carry it, and I'm sorry to say this guy just wasn't it. Not one I would grab off the shelf to watch again in a hurry.

Cluttered narrative makes for inadequate viewing experience...

I stumbled upon the 2020 horror movie "They Live Inside Us" here in 2022 by random chance. And I will say that the movie's cover definitely was interesting, and it was sufficient to make me pick up the movie and give it a view.As I had never heard about writer and director Michael Ballif's movie, "They Live Inside Us", I didn't know what I was in for here, nor what to expect. So I sat down to watch the movie with an open mind and giving writer and director Michael Ballif every opportunity to impress and entertain me.However, writer and director Michael Ballif failed to do just that. Sure, I managed to sit through the entire movie in all its 104 minutes, but I was not overly entertained, much less impressed with the movie. The narrative felt clumsy and sort of not properly thought through, and that made for a somewhat cluttered viewing experience.And the rigid, emotionless and wooden acting performances in "They Live Inside Us" didn't exactly help to win me over either. I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, but they surely didn't stand out with putting on exceptional good acting performances.For a horror movie then "They Live Inside Us" was a walk in the park. Nothing scary here throughout the course of the somewhat disjointed narrative. And for a life-long horror aficionado like myself, this movie was a swing and a miss in terms of being scary or noteworthy in the horror genre.While I managed to sit through the entire ordeal, then I can honestly say that I am never returning to watch "They Live Inside Us" a second time. Nor is it a movie that I would recommend you waste your time, money or effort on.My rating of "They Live Inside Us" lands on a three out of ten stars.
