In my opinion this is the worst movie of 2014 so far,i have never been so bored in all my life. This was a poorly made movie and the fact that it is classified as a horror movie is a joke seriously nothing scary or remotely suspenseful happens in the first 45 minutes of this movie. All you see is them sitting around a camp fire slinging insults at each other or paired up in tents screwing around or sleeping, On the rare occasion that they actually go out and dig you see all of a few minutes of that then it goes back to the snotty blonde sun bathing or back to the camp fire again. I recommend this movie to no one not even someone who likes mildly scary movies this far from suspenseful or scary. Do yourself a favor and keep walking if you see this in the video store.
ReplyDeleteI didn't really get this movie at all. It's supposed to be a horror movie but the fact that this mess was even made is what truly makes it scary.
ReplyDeleteSeveral university students/friends agree to go on a four day cultural dig at some abandoned corn field for native American artefacts. Most of them seem to have tagged along just for the extra credit they believe they'll get.
Anyway, one of them chances upon some old diary and this releases a bunch of spirits that look like pilgrims. One of the group is possessed and they use her as their means to dispatch the other members of the group. There is also some kind of talisman that they find but there is no real explanation on how this is supposed to work, or whether it's a good or bad thing to even have it.
So for me, there wasn't a whole lot in this that made any sense. Most killings in movies of this nature are either to collect souls or some other kind of end result, but this was just some kind of bizarre blood- lust which is not thoroughly explained. I watched this before knowing anything about it and that was a big mistake. It looked like this was another reanimated scarecrow movie and some of those can be fun to watch, however this was anything but fun.
Most of the movie revolved around college humour and exaggerated stereotypes. By then end of it all, the only thing that came to mind was "what the hell did I just watch?"
The ending made no sense at all. One of the students ends up leaving due to the weird happenings, so she gets driven to the nearest town to catch a bus back home. Inexplicably while she's unpacking, the talisman has somehow ended up in her backpack, the pilgrim spirit appears in her apartment somewhere and the movie just ends??!
There is no story or direction to this and I could've lived quite happily not knowing that this garbage ever existed. Watch it at your own peril.
Please please please for you own good, stay as far away from this movie as you possibly can, in fact walk away now do not think about this movie again, if you have any love for horror genre you will be horrifically disappointed with this movie. This is a poor excuse for a "horror" movie watching paint dry has to be more entertaining than this. The budget was obviously tiny the actor/actresses were bad but not because of poor skills it was just a terrible script!I really do truly enjoy horror movies but the idea that this "horror" movie falls into the horror category is a joke this is going on my list of never to be watched again ever i was watching something else on my tablet by the time the movie was about 40 minutes in it is that bad!
ReplyDeleteOK,low budget film, in the middle of nowhere, surrounded by corn, with an antique, possibly haunted yarn, with a scary old story surrounding it, with 3 blonde chicks...I mean cliché is the perfect word to describe this.
ReplyDeleteAll in all, no excuse for the extremely,EXTREMELY, used plot, with ABSOLUTELY nothing new whatsoever, just a re-rewritten thing you've seen 10 times already. So if they couldn't bring anything different, with the help of budget, or maybe a cool horror actor, or something, anything, why make this? Yes, it is bad, the acting is amateur mostly, the plot, as said, is...just impossible to comprehend how can anyone say that THEY written it? Really? So it's like original too I guess...
Anyway, "Fields of the dead" doesn't go in the "to pass some time" category, nor in the "so bad it's good", it has a decent first half for a low budget horror, but then, when it tries to become horror, it becomes pitiful. I really hate trashing movies, especially horrors, because, well, people try to show what they can do, with a micro budget, so maybe one day someone will give them a chance, but this right here, is what we call, wasted-money!
Avoid it! Pretend it does not exist! Best advice I can give you.
