The Zeme

source: The Zeme

Start and finish ,,this something,, on trailer. I give a chance to the end... Unfortunately I just lost a 1 and half an hour of my life.... Good luck with watching, nightmares guaranteed....

Usually don't post reviews....but this was pretty horrible. The lead actress would just mumble through the whole movie. She was attractive though. The guy in the van...just weird. Not a good effort.

I hadn't heard about this 2021 horror movie titled "The Zeme" from writer and director Goldie Dhillon before now in 2022 as I stumbled upon it and opted to sit down and watch it. And I figured with something that was on Amazon Prime Video then it couldn't possibly be all bad. But the low rating that the movie had managed to score here on IMDb was not a good sign. And this movie is bad. It is horribly, horribly bad. The storyline is just laughable. I mean it was so simplistic and downright stupid that it was difficult to take the movie serious in any way. The events in the movie were rather mundane and poor, and the character gallery and dialogue was just downright atrocious. The acting performances in "The Zeme" were dubious and shoddy. And it was actually toe-curling to watch and listen to the actors and actresses trying to stumble and fumble their way through very poorly written dialogue. And with most of the delivery of the dialogue not even in the level of a middle school play, it was just terrible to bear witness to. Visually then "The Zeme" was nothing to write home about. If you enjoy horror movies, then save yourself the anguish and torment and skip on this movie, because it just simply isn't worth the effort, time or money. My rating of "The Zeme" lands on a one out of ten stars.

I want to ask a question to direction team , The Zeme is a movie? I don't think its not even considered a shot film or drama Hole movie missing a connectivity and enter from one store to enter another store that their no connectivity I think they have a lot of money and they spending money in the name of ZEME Thanks all please try to spoil our good time.

Nice filming location in BC, acting seems bad because they dubbed the dialog or badly mixed it due to cost cutting. The story is largely a cross between Stephen King's The Shining and Bentley Little's The Vanishing. The musical track is interesting and good at times and bad at others. A little more effort it would have been better, too much budget cutting.

The story concept is good, but the delivery and execution is horrible. The only redeeming thing about the movie is Nick Preston's acting, especially since he didn't really have much to work with. I am sure we will see great things from him in future works. That being said Erie's character and personality has no flow and is all over the place. That could have been amped up much more. Perhaps an indicator to alcoholism, which could have come up later after an argument with Kit and a drunken binge at the bar, where he would meet up with the dishevelled Rusty. That would have made more sense with the messy button shirt. There were a lot of problems from continuity, the beer drinking in the bar, the rocking chair outside - which was not even weathered. The guitar scene doesn't make any sense in the beginning. If it was so precious, why would it be left in the back seat with a child?? There wasn't even any reference to the guitar in the memory montage. It could have been hyped up a lot more. Like Kit learning to play their favourite song, some depth and emotional connection. The relationship with the Alphonse and Kit doesn't make sense. Nor does the suggested idea of suicide at the lake, which if anything would have maybe caused a sprain at best. The attempted comedy relief with Alphonse and Rusty was lazy. So much more could have been done with such a budget. The score was decent, although sound editing was quite rough and out of sync at times. The end falling scene was not good at all. Again, the actual story concept is a good idea and could be remade and be quite awesome. Being that this is Goldie Dhillon's first directors debut, I would have given it 4 stars. There is potential there, but needs major extreme improvement.

The acting is horrific and the plot is silly and its dubbed lol i have no idea why a film with english speaking actors would dub a film with English I DONT GET IT lol its not effective, it makes the acting seem even more worse than what it is, theres no emotion and again, WHY IS IT DUBBED? You dont dub a film where everyone speaks english anyway with english dub....

Good movie!
