Before i even mention the hideous accent, can we talk about the lead being an entitled brat who throws a hissy fit when she doesn't have her own way. So this guy pitches up in her bakery with the worst french accent you've never heard (more fakery than bakery) And because he doesn't tell her his life story, and he is also a baker, she throws a meltdown and acts like a Karen right at his place of work in front of customers. THEN a while later he is innocently handing out freebies outside his store, and she marches over and starts yelling at him on the street. This woman is insane, and he spends HIS time accommodating her rudeness and finding her adorable. I switched off after 40 minutes of this generic rubbish being displayed.

It always amazes me that these movies are given the green light. Some movies are slow, some movies are dull, some movies are just plain trash. If you want to watch someone walking around an old house holding a torch and looking at photos of dead people for the entirety of the movie, then watch this. Because THAT is literally all that happens in the entire movie. In fact it seems like a student film that was rushed on the £100 budget it was given. Just go watch the Evil Dead to see how it is meant to be done. Whoever is green lighting these atrocious movies nowadays, must be getting paid LOTS of money, because that's the only reason i can think off to why we are subjected to endless crappy movies these days.

I know this series is called "The Girl from Plainville". But it might as well have been called "The Girl from different time zones" i couldn't make heads or tails of where the endless time frames were coming from, and for which there were many. And that was the problem for me, too many fairy tale flashback scenes to deal with, star crossed lovers, Romeo and Juliet meets Heavenly creatures, it was all just a bit tedious.

Michelle is shown through most of the series as a lost and confused teenager with a stalky disposition, that in the end, it was obvious that the show was coming from a feminist perspective. No back stories on the real details of the case, no family build up, just la la land and fairy tale Cinderella vibes. The only saving grace was Chloë Sevigny who played Conrad's mother, even though her time on screen was limited, she was the only realistic believable character. Conrad is portrayed as dull and boring, not depressed and suicidal. So much wrong with this show, and as many said, could have been done in 4 episodes max.

I gave this movie 50 minutes, and was still waiting for the tension to start. If you like your horror movies that lead you down the garden path, build up the scene, get you all excited about the kill, only then to offer up NOTHING, then this will suit you. . The scenes dragged and dragged, and when a murder scene did finally happen, it was just a lame scare face (panned out form the camera) instead of the good stuff.. From the endless talking and dragging scenes you have to edure lifeless acting, this was an utter borefest. At least with Halloween , which this movie was trying to rip off, knew the meaning of horror. Best to just watch an episode of Murder she wrote, than this.

Movie was utter tosh. The guy had the killer on his video camera for the entirety of the movie, even standing at his own front door, and he didn't think to go to the police with it. Why didn't he use the cell phone in the cabin to call the POLICE. . Why did he stay at the cabin for so long (with or without his pesky keys) How did the killer wake up so energetically to run around with a wolf mask right after being slumped out and drugged 1 minute earlier.

Why didn't the dumb guy move from his address after being stalked, why didn't he turn around on the bench. So many unanswered stupid questions, that only warrant stupid answers. Utter rubbish.

The Jump scares were bog standard, you could see them coming a mile off. There was just so many loose ends. The amount of nonsensical bad decisions was infuriating, the ones that make you scream at the screen. How this movie is getting positive reviews, shows that something seriously is happening to peoples perceptions to movies these days.

If you like your dramas to be full of can't be assed actors, wandering around with attitudes and mumbling at each other constantly, this is the one for you.

Jordan Rizzle acted like he didn't care about anything, and that the cameras were there as a nuisance.

There were lots of inadequacies from scene to scene, One minute 2 people chatting and laughing together, next minute yelling abuse at each other in public.

In one scene from episode one, Tash walks into her home, and sees the ex wife sitting in the kitchen, and screams, WTF are you doing in here. This is straight after having some sort of open relationship situation going on with hubby. Totally stupid, and totally unbelievable. People just don't behave like this, unless they are psychopaths. And what's with the Chinese baby. Neither of them are Asian.

You know when you set up thousands dominos (no me neither), you let the first one go, and then there are a few crashes and near misses, but you give them another chance, and they get going again, until the last one falls flat and never gets up again, and you think "What was the point in all that". Well that's what it was like watching the Watcher.

So many questions, but no answers, so many bad decisions and no logical sense. In one scene where the father sends his family off to the Motel to live, he stays at home alone and just wonders around outside his property at night, without a single thought that this creepy person that is threatening him and his family could be outside in the bushes with a GUN.

And then what happens, he goes to bed alone with ALL the curtains open and windows letting the watcher know his every move, and a GUN goes off and kills his neighbours.

There was no way anybody would put themselves through this torture after hearing those horror stories, and getting those letters, just no way, they would pack up immediately.

Then by episode 4, Jennifer Coolidge character was starting to malfunction, because all her lines were the same thing, "Sell the house, sell the house", the daughter became a narcissistic psychopath overnight and called her parents racists online, Ok where did THAT come from. And poor old wife was just looking like a horny desperate housewife with no purpose.

So much time put into the scenery and interior of the house, but nothing on substance or relatability. Once the whole race storyline came in, i knew where it was going, so promptly switched off, then came here, and saw the vitriol over the ending, so glad i skipped the last 3 episodes.

This movie chogged along, but went nowhere, The characters were a bunch of annoying jerks who spend every minute arguing about pointless nonsense.

Everyone was obsessed with marriage and flaunting their rings at each other. In one scene, the immature blond girl goes to talk with the spoilt bratty women to have a heart to heart, but they both just start comparing their jewellery and their money status, and after two minutes they have discussed noting but who has the most stuff. The husbands are all simps, and the wives were all entitled whinebags. There was NOTHING about Christmas at all. Just a dreary badly lit, badly written, badly acted mess.

This is one of those movies that is marketed as a haunted house thriller, when it is anything but. It was so tedious, i gave it an hour, and within that time NOTHING happened, i mean NOTHING. They sat in a cafe, they did up a house, that's it.

Even the cast couldn't save it, Mostly one trick pony actors with no range, like Kirsten Stewart playing another moody sulky teenager, Juliette Lewis being her usual edgy self she is in real life, and Dennis Quaid just doing his macho alpha thing, and Sharon Stone who is actually a great actress being left on the sideline like an old rag.

This movie was just boring, and as soon as Stephen Dorff pitched up and started acting creepy, you knew where the film was going to take you, and yep (predictable lane).

Don't bother waiting to the end, you'll know that already.

How did so many actors get fooled into signing up for this bore fest.

I fell asleep through the first episode, 30 minutes spent on rescuing a family from a wreckage, are you kidding. 2nd episode was even more tedious, more relentless talking and some moody stares, too much empty scenes of chatting, this time about monsters in the woods. It would have been better if we had some visuals of monsters in woods, but all we got was some extras wandering around in the rain. I had so much hope for this show. It's not worth a 3rd episode for me.

The characters in this movie have got to be the dumbest bunch i have seen in almost any other movie.

Why do people not get out of houses and run outside, choosing instead to take detours around empty rooms looking like demented FANS desperately wanting to be killed.

Why does nobody own cell phones to call the police (What kind of town is this) Why do most of the women survive, while the men all die. What happened to the brats in the park. And why do people just sit around screaming instead of getting out of a car and running. Not a great movie, but not the worst.

I really wanted to love this movie. But Winona Ryder's character spent the majority of the movie walking around muttering to herself and being all silly.

The movie is more or less centered around her silent mutterings and being obsessed with nuns and strange men. At one stage she rocks up at some strange house and barges in and demands to herself, that she must be going crazy. It was all a little silly and she just didn't relate to me. I switched off at that moment. With a feeling of regret, as i had never seen this supposed classic. And felt let down by it.

Why didn't they just barricade themselves in the room with weapons. Locked the door and put furniture against the door, The police outside would have had a link either by phone or whatever. And by the morning people would have stormed the place to free them, after they didn't hear from them. Instead they wander around like idiots, climbing roofs and running amok waiting to be killed. They made it so easy for the killer. Not the smartest bunch.

I watched this around 3am when i was feeling down in the dumps. Not even the springtime can keep me away from Christmas movies it seems. And for me, this gave me the instant hit that i needed at that time.

The lead actress was a joy to watch, not over saccharine like some Christmas heroines can be, she gave this movie some glamour and some class. The setting was inviting and charming, and most of the budget seems to have been spent on decorating the street (not a bad thing) why anyone would feel the need to knock it down, was a mystery to me.

The story was a tad predictable,. But not corny.

Over-all it was very easy to watch and get into that Christmasy feeling.

Generic haunted house movie, but this one was pretty terrible. After the first 3 scares, it would have been obvious to most people, that maybe the best thing to do, would be to get out of the house. Because after a few bad smells and demon shadows wandering around, and cats being strangled, son being possessed, shadows trying to kill you, Grandma fighting a snake in the Kitchen, you would think that getting out of the house would be a main priority. But nope, these idiots are still not satisfied with the scares they are getting, so in comes wolf attacks in the middle of the night, blankets moving around by themselves, doors opening by themselves, car engines starting, son seeping blood from all his face holes. What do these people do. NOTHING, they go out for dinner with the boss and leave the kids home alone, CCOOOMMEE ONNN. Who writes this crap.

What happened to this movie, it was going along quite nicely, and then all of a sudden it ENDED without no explanation to anything that had come before, was Suki really a ghost, Was the Dr a manipulative killer, who did Caroline see at the top of the stairs when she said (YOU) and what was the whole thing meant to be about.

Also clearly this was a Buckingham palace size stately home, but yet it only showed a few rooms, some stairs a lounge a bedroom and a kitchen, where was the rest of the house. The ending was totally rushed because the film had to be cut down, and this was pretty obvious to the hack job they did at the end, what an insult.

Right form the start of the first episode i was baffled by a huge GOOF, i imagine this can only be a deliberate mistake, seeing as it was such a massive GOOF.

On the first scene a camera drops down from the sky overlooking a quiet street with what looks like a modern London Skyline in the background, The scene was lit up like a Christmas tree, with tons of skyscrapers galore, the camera furthers down onto the row of houses with skyline still in the background, and informs us it's October 1992.

Neither of these buildings or skyline existed in 1992, it would have been derelict wasteland and you wouldn't have seen anything.

All i can think off is the director was trying to show London as it is now, rather than be accurate and true to the time period, which for me was a very bad choice, and totally made me switch off and come here to rant. Was this done to infuriate the audience.

I wasn't surprised where this episode decided to go with it's twist, in fact i knew it was coming the moment they introduced the characters Walker and Otto a few episodes back.

I knew i was in for yet another daily dose of Woke claptrap . Otto being the main white dominant male was never going to go well for him , he was made to be a racist tyrant, so he had to go.

Walker was always going to be revealed as the victim, yet he loves de-scalping people to death who get in his way. And not forgetting the Empowered female box tick went to Madison for owning both of them.

It's not that i am against rights and wrongs, it's just that the level of cheap sentimental woke messages can sometimes seem a bit contrived and patronising, and that's why for me it completely destroyed my enjoyment of most of season 3 in general. It's all just a little forced and phony. And doesn't really do much to send out the right message, for which it is intended to do.

The crimes are real, but the TV show is fake, episodes 1 and 2 show exact same CCTV of same people leaving pub. how can that be possible, 10 years apart different parts of the country and different people in the CCTV, these programs are fake AF.

If you want to watch a true crime series where all the victims are young pretty women, and all the suspects are men who are all shown as creeps, this is just your show. Just watched 3 episodes and i am actually flabbergasted at the atrocity of how it is played out, all the victims are relentlessly admired throughout the whole show by endless Simps, all the suspected killers are OBVIOUSLY men who are just shown as creeps. I am a man and i stopped watching after feeling that every women needed to be scared of every man on the planet, total biased show in every way, seems more interested in sexual narratives than portraying a real life story.

I think this episode was the last straw for me, there have been to many boring episodes to deal with, The woman who i imagine is meant to be a Redhead, looks Spanish with Black hair, the storytelling is dreadful and dull, and as others have mentioned, this is just another filler among many in this series, the ending was silly and insulting., That's the end for me, Bye Bye Darkside.

So i guess American TV still can't use ugly actors to play ugly characters, in walks hollywood stunner Jennifer garner playing an embittered mean looking control freak with an angry disposition, as soon as i saw her playing this role i just lost interest completely. She is exactly like all the other ex Sitcom, ex CSI ex Romcom leads. She is not believable, and has the emotional stamina as a drunk fly, most of the characters are text book, although as soon as i saw Juliette lewis (i felt all was not lost, as i know she knows how to do get down in the dirt ugly, even though mmm she's not) Someone with a background in using comedy to hide behind the fact they are hideous, would have been a much better lead for this role, but then Snowflake America would pretend to like it, and then outwardly whinge about the lighting being too dark or something.

I will hold my hands up and say it was my fault that i thought this 80's Movie centered around Halloween with a scary Title and VHS Cover that looked like walking corpses was going to be anything other than a horror movie,, why wouldn't it be. Well fool me for not coming here to IMDB and reading that it is rated (unrated) so that means this movie is none of the above, it has no Horror at all, just boring spooks and lots of costumes, at one stage i thought i was watching an early episode of How i met your mother. There is no getting away from the Halloween overload, if you love Halloween, then this is spaced out on it. Other than that, it was no gore no tension and no Horror. I will make sure i read other reviews next time.

OK, it's a Christmas movie surprisingly about Romance, love, snow and a wedding, i get it, it's the formula, that's not what i didn't like about it. But 10 minutes into this movie the Main actress playing Kate was already making me nauseous, i thought her character was far from sweet and likable, more condescending and saccharine. Her treatment of the guy at the beginning trying to be nice to her was so shocking, he wore glasses and was over 40, so i guess that instantly makes him a creep, and should be treated as such. WHY? she dissed him because she thought he was coming onto her, he was just trying to be nice. i dislike movies where the bad guys are always old or fat or ugly, and are treated as such by the leads. Her silly facial expression trying to show emotion and depth was the final straw, and i switched off after 15 minutes, she was annoying me that much.

First of all, can i show my disgust at the sickening reviewer on here that called the actress a dog and too ugly for his/her eyes- and giving the movie 1 star for that reason. obviously a jealous vile person. Personally i thought the actors were too attractive, and that's my gripe really, do unattractive people not exist in Hallmark land, do only hot people deserve to find love in TV land. Every Hallmark Christmas movie is about a relationship, and part of that relationship means that the cast are not allowed to look and behave like average people, Nobody in this movie was realistic or believable. The Movie is set at Christmas but not about Christmas, and the Cats just looked like they were there to be held by the cast, and THAT'S it. I did manage to watch this one all the way through, but the lead Zach was totally emotionless and had no personality at all, the female lead was nice enough, but didn't suit him. The ending was so saccharine and sickly to the point that i almost switched off 5 minutes before the end, just to stop my squinting eyes from hurting anymore, just watch it and see for yourself, no it was not a journey i kept saying to the characters, it was a dead end road. The movie had an element of cosyness to it, and the other characters seemed fine, (in a i would rather watch them kinda way) but 5 out of 10 stars is being generous for me.
