Dean (6927 KP) rated Slasher - Season 3 in TV

Dec 11, 2020

Feels low budget (2 more)

Poor acting

Predictable

Disappointing

I waited a long time to see this, as it only recently became available on UK Netflix. The first 2 series were great and felt like very good Slasher films and were done well as a series.
This is no where near as good though sadly. Low budget, mainly filmed in a small apartment block. The story isn't as good and becomes fairly predictable by about the 5 episode. It felt like a bit of a slog to finish even at 8 episodes. Stick to the first 2 series.

What started as a great film that had a solid story, also had moment's of "please don't pull this crud again" which ended with both sighs of relief and of annoyance but was going well until the end, now I wont say what happened but I am saddened by netflix giving another unsatisfying end to an otherwise good movie, you may feel differently but this is my opinion.

So aside from the ending, this was an enjoyable, on the edge of your seat movie....with an almost completely obvious ending.

Ok Sci-Fi

Watched this Netflix original last night. The storyline is pretty good, set in the near future where some people have various powers but are restricted by law to use them. A group decide to use their powers to make some easy money.
Very similar to @X2: X-Men United (2003) and elements of @Chappie (2015) @Chronicle (2012) it's ok and some good action scenes but would have been better with a bigger budget for more action scenes. It slows down a fair bit in the final 3rd.

holy wowza!!

I LOVED this film. The pacing, the cinematography, the characters, the plot, literally everything about it. I loved the details and the fact that it felt real. I think sometimes films like these, especially ones Netflix does, can have the intentions of being real but they just aren't. I think there's a little bit of Ellie, of Paul, of Aster, in all of us. I am in love with this film. Alice Wu knocked it out of the park and I can guarantee I will be watching this film over and over again. I am in love.
