Good start, but then it gets ruined

What begins as a feel-good-human-interest story turns into a mystery, then a tragedy, and ultimately an outrage.

This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Seriously, the only disappointment I can find in this shocker are the low IMDB ratings. It would seem the movie going public has come to accept recent Hollywood dreck in the guise of the horror genre as legit. I turn your attention to an actual horror movie not based on or centered around; 1) a graveyard 2) an insane asylum 3) a haunted house 4) demons & 5) kids lost in the woods who find a haunted house near a graveyard or nuthouse and then get possessed or harassed by demons. A vivid imagination along with some referential grindhouse/ exploitation style filmmaking sure goes a long way especially in the hands of a skilled director who included top notch acting, convincing character development and a compelling story line. This story has everything needed for a gothic psychotropic rave-up that's modernized just enough to help redefine the postmodern all-American horror film complete with a patina of grimy sleaze. The brilliance of this presentation is demonstrated additionally by the constraint shown in the scenes of violence and twisted sexuality. None of that over the top in your face spook house induced loud violence that goes on for hours thus losing potency. If you can't be entertained by high art infused with incest, heads blown off, kidnapping, rape, familial dementia and home medical strategies then I suppose a concept like " Texas Chainsaw " or "10,000 Maniacs " is simply lost. Otherwise, skip this real thriller & go back to the demon in the haunted house with a graveyard and kids near the loony bin in the dark rain and junk.

Amanda Millard (Abby Wathen) needs a job and not a GED. She manages to score one at the Oregon Hotel in remote Mitchell, Oregon (actual place, filmed it there). The town is a bit backward and Mildred (Marlyn Mason) the owner has a simple minded son Billy (Michael Meyer)...and we know where this goes.Normally films such as this take place in remote rural locations to make it believable. This was a low budget film. The sound track had a lame made for TV appeal for much of the feature. The acting was what would be expected for a script that lacked cohesion. The camera angles and framing needs improvement, stop cutting off the top of heads. The climax was unexpected, but wasn't very climatic. What was with the wig? The end scene with Adam wasn't developed.Marlyn Mason won best supporting actress at "Back in the Box, California 2016" for what it is worth. Now I had to take a second look when I saw the name Marlyn Mason which looks like cult rock star and Michael Meyer whose name is similar to the Halloween killer. During the opening credits they showed scenes from the film, which was a waste when they should of showed newspaper clippings about the dead husband and other nefarious things about Mitchell. And what was with the backward "E"' in nearly every name? The film was written, directed, and produced by Brad Douglas. The production had potential, but fell short.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

Medium shot, close up, medium shot, close up, medium shot, close up, long shot, medium shot, break the 180 degree rule, long shot....Total rubbish. Story is drivel. Acting is awful. Characters aren't in any way shape or form believable. Totally totally pointless and bland.Don't even bother..... really don't...

The unemployed Amanda Millard (Abby Wathen) is desperate to find a job since she is forced to live with her alcoholic estranged mother. Out of the blue, she is invited to a job interview at the Oregon Hotel in Mitchell in the countryside of Oregon 80 miles far from home. When she arrives, she is welcomed by the nice Mildred Colvin (Marlyn Mason) that offers a maid position to Amanda and her son Billy Colvin (Michael Meyer) fix her car. Amanda returns home to say goodbye to her mother and to her friend Brittany (Sonya Davis) and bring her belongings to Mitchell. Soon Amanda befriends the cook Brad (Max Gutfreund) from a nearby eatery and spends her day off with him. When she returns to the hotel, she faints and learns that she is pregnant. But how, if she has not had any sexual encounter with any man?"Besetment" is a horror thriller with a promising storyline but a weak screenplay and poor production with extreme low-budget. The flawed plot could have explored the situations better and developed the characters better. Brad, for example, is murdered but the viewer does not know anything about him and no resident seems to miss him. Mildred uses a gunshot in the middle of the night and nobody hears the shot. Amanda is abused in the hotel and sees her friend murdered in her room, but she keeps the baby and moves to live in the place in the end. The director and writer Brad Douglas is quick to make amends to the polemic situations using fade out, such as the incestuous relationship of Billy and Mildred, or she sewing Amanda's mouth. There is one very funny line (Amanda saying to Mildred "I'm either giving birth to the new messiah or that doctor's full of s hit!") and one attempt with the Sheriff that can not recall the correct codes. My vote is two.Title (Brazil): Not Available
