In the Trap

source: In the Trap

Poor made, badly acted and the direction is all over the place, Character development is non existent.

Firstly protagonist is simply lame... He is just whining all the time.... you can t really have bounds with the character you can t attach ypurself and thus you have no emphaty for him.... Also the sound effects and musics are misplaced and distracting aldo they might use some reverb on them... Storyline is worst the classical horror movie cliches.... Visual effect are forced into movie they stand absurdly and takes away all you builded up during the movie... Do not even bother this movie... Failed attemp but this is good in a way that we can xleary distinguish the good and bad movies. Thank you.

So on a Rainy night in Devon England, of which there are plenty of those, we find a kid running from something in his own house apparently. Running to his bed he sees something under his sheets and he calls for MOMMY. MOMMY comes running and looks under his sheets and sees nothing. But as soon as mommy leaves, there is something under his sheets!!! HE YELLS FOR MOMMY ! MOMMY COMES again, but the creature or whatever it is grabs his sister and drags his sister to her room where i guess she dies. Because when the boy goes in there his mother is crying over his sister's body. Okay that was pretty dumb but okay, we'll go with it. Mother and Boy still go on together, grieving over the sister's loss. Okay what we get here is a fairly standard possession / exorcism story. Ahh okay so this guy Philip it was his sister that got killed in the beginning. And he meets this girl Sonja and he goes back over his whole life story with her??? Weird. -1 Star for going over your whole life story with some other girl with a new girl you're trying to hit on.... Oh that was the exorcism that failed. Okay I'm almost paying attention now. OOO Sonja invites Philip to sleep at her place. He refused??? What a moron. Oh but wait there's something weird about Sonja here. Suddenly she's got a case of demon voice. Then he's like in some dreamlike landscape. Oh Okay so Philip killed Sonja with the knife he used to cut the CHEESECAKE. Oh boy then the cheesey demon voice telling Philip to kill the Priest who has come to save him. -1 Star for cheesey demon voice.... But never underestimate the raw power of a cheesecake knife. Oh and Philip gives the Priest the jailhouse shank treatment with that knife . And the blood FLOWS!!! IT FLOWS!!! tHEN WE GET FLashbacks of the varioous people that Philip has killed. It all comes back to him now. So wait, then he's like exorcising.... his old girlfriend again? And the priest is alive? So did he travel through time or something? Is Sonja alive??? Did Sonja even ever exist?? There sure is a lot of cheery upbeat music the last like 30 minutes which is just tremendously annoying really. And at the end he bumps into a new woman in the hallway of his apt building and she introduces herself as Sonja. So was he having visions of things that didn't happen yet? Okay this movie...was pretty bad. 3/10

I'm not entirely sure of what I just watched. The movie is all over the place. There is no storyline. The ending left me with so many questions. It's a frustrating movie to watch.

As a child Philip sees monsters everywhere. One grabs and kills his sister. He lives in seclusion with his mother in a big house until she dies. He is visited by a priest and by chance meets Catherine (Sonya Cullingford) who very soon becomes the victim of a failed exorcism. And then we discover what we already suspected. The film is boring, Philip is a wimp, and it is not worth watching. Guide: F-word. sex, nudity (Sonya Cullingford).

Wow my review is basically the same as the one above even to the bit I am waiting for wiki to come about so I can actually understand wtf went on

I get tired of the same old horror cliches. If you are tired of those, then this is a movie for you. Does a great job keeping things incredibly tense. At first I wasn't a fan of the Protagonist but I came around to him. The movie does a good job of not shoving exposition down your throat and instead leaves you subtle information for you to digest.

Featuring the wettest, most simpering leading character I have ever seen. Perpetually crying and whining, Philip does not inspire much in the way of empathy. When not blubbing, he spends a lot of the film delicately nibbling at various meals that are made for him. Sadly, as the film goes on, he only becomes more irritating, deeply so, and that hurts the film throughout. His girlfriend, far more resolute and personable, is also the preferred meal for the resident demon. Admittedly, Philip goes through the wringer - such is the nature of horror films - but at the end, I couldn't warm to him, and didn't really understand what I'd just watched. Nice to see veteran actor David Bailie as Father Andrew though,in one of his final roles. My score is 4 out of 10.

The jump scares are few but when they arrive they do their job! The film is very claustrophobic and took my breath away! Good actors and beautiful thrilling music!
