The Barn

Bon film !

Possible plot spoilers, probably not. A group of teens from Helen's Valley go off on Halloween night to Wheary Falls to collect candy and canned goods for love of my horror film life, Linnea Quigley. It has all the bells and whistles that an 80's homage slasher film should have: 1) Token black guy dies first 2) People who have sex die 3) token * scene with body double 4) Linnea Quigley 5) Metal music 6) Virgin for final girl 7) ridiculous amount of blood 8) Everyone has a jean's jacket 9) great opening scene with a little girl getting a pickax to the head The problem with the production was the acting wasn't there. Mitchell Musolino couldn't carry the lead and the rest of the cast was flat. The writer didn't know what to do with Michelle (Lexi Dripps) and created a sub par character. She should have been key at the end and had lines that would place her there. The creation of characters was poorly done. I couldn't connect. Guide: F-word, sex, nudity

One of the best new Halloween themed films. It's fun, original and a complete homage to the golden era of horror. Well done!

growing up in the 1980's and watching the horror genre bloom into slasher mania was awesome. Over the years we've been subjected to Hollywood's watered down PG-13 horror films. Thankfully this movie shows up with barely even a budget and actually tries to be a good movie. Screw "horror" needing to be super scary, great acting and impeccable make-up and special effects- this movie is why I LOVE horror films because it was fun. This flick had a good story and more importantly heart and that's what won me over. You could tell this was made by people who enjoyed these type of movies. We need more films made by the fans and less made by big studios. Mark this as a Win for independent horror baby!!!

Just see this movie for yourself and draw your own conclusion. The Barn is a movie that you will either like or not. There's no pretense with this movie. It has a strong marketing strategy that has worked in their favor, and it worked! Personally, I enjoyed the movie. The acting was what you expect from a low budget indie film, but the cinematics and the mastery of nostalgia are what solidify this movie as a strong flick.

This is just crap. Don't waste your time. It's not worth it.

Maybe a decent movie for low budget buffs, but I'm not one of them. My time is very limited so I rely on IMDB ratings when looking for something to watch. My goal is to find a movie rates "5" or higher. This movie met that criteria so I gave it a shot. I should mention that I saw it on Amazon Prime video. Anyway, I started watching the movie and it's a very low budget movie with horrendous acting (or maybe they're supposed to act horribly?). Regardless, the dialogue was horrible, the special effects were horrible, and (in my opinion) the movie was horrible. Had to finally give up and turn the movie off with 36 minutes left. I was mad at myself for picking this trash when I knew I only had 1 1/2 hours to spare. So if you're looking for a decent movie and have limited time. Pass on this movie. Unless you love low budget movies. If so, go for it.

This is one of the most God-awful movies that I've ever seen. Anyone who has rated this film above a 2 has to be directly connected to the movie. There aren't any spoilers about the movie because there is nothing worth mentioning. The acting is terrible. The special effects are worse. I know that this is supposed to be a low budget fright fest, but I would be surprised if the producers spent more than a hundred bucks on this trash. Poor decisions and rash behavior are hallmarks of virtually every horror movie ever made, but some of the actions and decisions taken and made by the main characters are beyond imbecilic. If this is supposed to be a tribute/throwback to the slasher flicks of the 1980s, it fails miserably. The plot is ridiculously unbelievable, even by crappy movie standards.

I picked up a copy of "The Barn" given the movie's cover, and it did seem like it could be an interesting enough horror movie. It definitely had that throwback feel to it, back to the 1980s of horror movies. And the movie definitely also had that ages feel to it. So that was at least counting in favor of the movie. But it was hardly enough to loom over everything that the movie was failing at. First and foremost, the storyline in the movie was, and let me just be blatantly honest here, pointless and boring. The movie offered nothing new to the genre, and it felt like it was running on so much auto-pilot that it was derailing itself. Predictable to the core. The characters in the movie were flaccid and one-dimensional, offering very little flavor to the movie. As for the acting, well it was adequate enough, taking into consideration the type of movie and its budget size. Just don't go into watching "The Barn" with the hopes of seeing brilliant performances that will blow you away. The creatures, monsters, call them what you will, in the movie were adequate enough. They weren't scary at all though. But the concept idea of them was interesting enough. In terms of horror and shock value, then "The Barn" had absolutely zero of that, unless you've never seen a horror movie before in your life. Then, and only then, will you perhaps find some enjoyment in this movie. I did manage to endure sitting to the very end of the movie, but it wasn't a particular satisfying ending to the movie. It was, in fact, also quite predictable.
