What was this about?...

When I sat down to watch the 2022 horror movie "Dead Bride", it was without ever having heard about the movie, so I didn't know what to expect here. But with it being a horror movie, of course my interest was sparked. And thus, I opted to give writer and director Francesco Picone's movie a fair chance.

And now that the movie has ended, I virtually have only a slight clue as to what the storyline was about. This movie was a confusing mess. I literally was left with a sense of 'what was this all about?' as the movie ended. So I can't say that writer and director Francesco Picone really managed to churn out something worthwhile here.

I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, and that is usually something I enjoy when I sit down to watch a movie. However, I must admit that it was not the case with "Dead Bride", because the acting performances here were fairly wooden and rigid.

The movie ran for 83 minutes, and without really understanding what was going on or why, then it was a very prolonged movie experience. Not a movie that was particularly enjoyable either, mind you.

Visually then you're not in for a particularly outstanding horror experience, as the movie made very little use of special effects. There was some adequate prosthetics and old-fashioned make-up effects, but that was about it.

If you enjoy horror movies, do yourself a favor and find something more entertaining to watch, because "Dead Bride" simply isn't worth the time, money or effort.

My rating of "Dead Bride" lands on a generous two out of ten stars.

Can I give this a ZERO?

Wow this movie is truly horrible on every level. The plot is a father commits suicide and the daughter, her "baby" and her boyfriend move into his house for some reason.

The baby looks like she's 18. I'm not kidding in the slightest.

The direction is interminably slow and will put you to sleep.

The script reads like someone wrote a bunch of gibberish, threw the pages in teh air collected them and then said OK here's the script.

The acting is a smiddgen above amateur.

Unfortunetly the movie is just bad. Not funny bad. Just really so bad you will be upset at yourself that you watched this fiasco.

A fun if wholly genric supernatural genre outing

After moving into a new house together, a woman begins to become concerned about the strange incidents around the house which soon gives way to the truth about a malicious entity from her past coming back to haunt the family forcing them to extreme measures to stop it once they target her son.

This was a generally enjoyable enough genre effort. One of the stronger features here is the overwhelmingly familiar if still worthwhile setup that lets the rather chilling action take place. With the various cliches present here from the family strife brought about by the move to a new house, the idea of the subtlety involved in the house being written away by this condition brings about the expected sense of sympathy towards her as this goes along. When the reveal about the history of the entity attacking and targeting her mother that includes several bits about her own troubled upbringing as well as the gruesome exorcism attempt on her possessed mother that has some graphic effects-work alongside the setup of the family apparently being targeted by the entity for awhile now. That becomes quite evident with the film transforming into a decent enough genre outing the second half involving the reason for the curse to follow them and affect the family. Learning of the past interactions that her mother had suffered which prepares her for the same treatment once the daughter goes missing, this one turns into a rather fun exploration of the spiritual dimension that has much darker and more vibrant energy throughout here with the encounters featured here. With the impressive-looking ghouls tormenting her and the desperate race to get her daughter back, this has a frantic sense of energy that goes along with the revelations made involving the connection between the ghosts haunting them and the house itself which has a lot to like about it. Combined with the expected but still quite dark finale that twists everything quite nicely, these factors are enough to give this a lot to like overall. There are several drawbacks to be had with this one. As mentioned, the main issue here is the films' overtly-obvious and generally unmistakable familiarity with what goes on here. There's very little here that comes off as original or unique with the determined wife attempting to convince her skeptical and aloof husband that something's wrong with the house, that there's a family history of dealing with the very same entity plaguing them, and that everything gets solved by a journey to a separate dimension, which is what we get here. Moreover, this one doesn't do much with these issues by speedrunning through some of these beats to bring about more cliches including an infidelity storyline that goes nowhere or to clumsily introduce not only the priest that has ties to the family but the need to go into the spiritual dimension which is introduced out of nowhere and accepted readily seemingly because that's what needs to happen. It all makes this feel like a low-rent carbon copy of other genre efforts and is what holds this back the most.

Rated Unrated/R: Graphic Language, Violence, and children-in-jeopardy.
