hectorandresaguidv This movie has got to be one of the scariest films I've watched. With the right timing jumpscares, and everything. Although, I don't understand why the police would be mad if she gave him sleeping pills.. And how did the child drown in a BATHTUB? He could've sat up straight.But overall, the movie is amazing. And very scary. I absolutely recommend it.
Leofwine_draca BEFORE I WAKE is yet another Hollywood CGI ghost story with a predictable plot, predictable look, and no decent scares. The story is once again about a grieving couple (is there any other type in this genre?) who take in a foster kid. It turns out that he's terrified of falling asleep, and for good reason as he ends up being menaced by a CGI ghost dude who proceeds to menace the rest of the family too. It's all faintly ridiculous stuff, not helped by the generic, predictable nature of the writing and the tired performances from Thomas Jane and Kate Bosworth, who both look like they want to be elsewhere. But then, can you blame them?
Raymond I read nothing about this movie, but it kept "haunting" me on my Netflix recommendations. It looked like a forgettable b-movie, but boy was I in for a treat when I finally decided to watch this.The story is about parents who have lost their son in an accident and who adopt an 8 year old boy whose dreams manifest as real things. You can't really figure out whether it's a movie worth watching by reading the synopsis really, you're just better off watching it. Not the most logical movie ever made and you can probably find a plot hole galore, it's even a bit slow to start with, but in the end this was one of the most beautiful and at the same time one of the scariest movies I've seen in a while.Only now coming to IMDB I found out that this movie was directed by the same guy who did Oculus and Ouija: Origin of Evil, some of the better horror movies I've seen lately. Count me as a Mike Flanagan fan. I probably need to watch Gerald's Game now too, which I had zero intention to watch, but I saw it's also directed by him.Before I Wake is a very well made movie. Well shot, acted and directed. Highly recommended. It has zero gore and blood, but is scary as hell at times and is also very touching. Some strange stylistic choices like making Thomas Jane look like Chad Kroeger of Nickelback, but once you get over that it's a great great movie.
Mohd Danish Last night i came through it on Netflix, first i watched its trailer and i find it very interesting and gripping. So i started watching movie and soon with some good moments it become repetitive and boring. Movie had a old concept of dream and sleep like in Freddy or nightmare on elm's street but with cute angle of little kid having superpower which make it good concept. But it didn't hold much as movie gets slow with time not gripping, thrilling enough and even horrors scene weren't scary. Good parts about movie is some scenes with little kid Cody(Jacob Tremblay) acting and ending was good. So overall its average, one time watch or you can watch it for Little Kid Jacob. Last scene also leaves room for sequel which i believe Netflix should try because movie have good concept and the Kid is really talented and we all have seen his Wonder.
