Watch The Unfolding For Free

The Worst Film Ever

Thanks for the memories!

hyped garbage

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

I wanted to like this film but i can honestly say I've never watched such tripe has this in my life how anyone can even remotely call this scary is taking the mick it's rare I write reviews but I had to for this please for the love of god don't watch it a five year could of done a better job and I'm not kidding acting awful effects none existent barely hear or see what's happening terribly a joke

Whatever deep meaning there was supposed to be within this film it passed me by completely. Lots of sudden loud noise shocks, ludicrous decisions and poor acting as is often the case in this type of film. I am occasionally pleasantly surprised by poorly rated films but not in this case. More than one star is generous. The science quoted is garbage, the behaviour nonsensical and the psychic, as well as the "effects", straight out of one of those awful TV shows like "Ghost-hunters". I wouldn't even consider it worthy as an "Ironing" film. It's like a low budget "Paranormal activity" and even though more happens in this film I found it to be similarly pointless. If you are looking to waste the odd 90 minutes of your life then go ahead with this trash. If not look elsewhere.

I love the horror genre. I especially love that it has made something of a resurgence over the past decade. Horror is smart, artistic and very much maligned by film academia. For almost 20 years horror genre lovers were left out in the cold by the movie industry and the genre has finally been given the place it deserves (at the top of the list for ratings, box office, artistry and innovation). With such a resurgence comes the ability for first time movie makers and those working to small budgets the opportunity to delve into the genre's murky waters and get their feet wet. These small budget horrors should receive plaudits not just because the work is of interest but because the struggle from concept to screen is extraordinary and arduous. The Unfolding is one of those movies. You can tell from the very opening sequence to its very dying breath that this movie was a labour of love. It brought together a cast of unknowns (in every field) and created a piece of work that stands up against its multi-million dollar counterparts and in some instances outshines them. As with all good horror movies the score is everything and The Unfolding's score is magnificent and becomes a character in its own right. The imagery, performances and direction are also to be commended and as an initial foray into the genre Eugene McGing should be especially applauded. I don't scare very easily but there were moments during this movie that were genuinely chilling.

i loved this movie. Really atmospheric and the slow build up of tension to the point when everyone screamed and jumped in their seats was brilliant. Some clever intriguing twists going on in the back story add to the atmosphere. Along with great performances make for a must see in my books. Great direction and moody lighting, the tension builds from the off. By the end of the film I was buzzing, with having me and the rest of the audience having such a great reaction to the film. Superb! I want to go see it again!
