Too much of everything
what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.
This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows
Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
RELEASED IN 2016 and directed by Andy Palmer, "Badlands of Kain" chronicles events when two young women (Rachelle Dimaria & Katrina Norman) embark on a road trip from Southern California to Flagstaff, but breakdown near Kain, Arizona, where the people are weird.This is a low budget indie mystery/horror, but it's professionally made. The plot is a little reminiscent of "Messiah of Evil" (1973) with elements of "Psycho" (1960/1998). It plays like a movie-length Twilight Zone episode, albeit set in the modern day. The story needed tightened up, however; 20 minutes could've easily been shaved off the runtime. But I didn't really mind; the two females kept my attention, especially Katrina Norman. Speaking of which, the creators kept things tasteful with only one tame underwear sequence and no nudity. THE MOVIE RUNS 1 hour 48 minutes and was shot in Lake Isabella, Kernville & Bakersfield, California. WRITER: Rachelle Dimaria, who plays the protagonist, Shannon. GRADE: B-/C+
***Spoilers Ahead, Maybe?*** I've read so many reviews comparing Badlands Of Kain to an episode of Twilight Zone & I'm going to be another 1...... Watching Badlands Of Kain was like watching a 1 hour 50 minute episode of The Twilight Zone.It's a good movie that's worth watching.I don't know if it's worth buying or renting (I wouldn't rent or buy it myself) but I'd recommend watching it at least once.It had my attention right from the start till the very end & that was the best part, the ending.I did not see it coming.I was expecting that the town of Kain was a town full of some type of monsters or something but it wasn't, it was something else.I won't spoil it for anybody so you'll just have to see it for yourself.If you're a fan of The Twilight Zone then maybe you'd enjoy it more than somebody who's not.I'm not a Twilight Zone fan at all so I guess you don't have to be to like Badlands Of Kain
Nothing happens. You as the audience will find yourself pointing at the television and asking the characters why they are so stupid. By the time something finally does happen, you've lost interest. You're probably checking your Facebook account to see if someone liked the picture of your dog that you took earlier that day or you are catching up on sports scores. The characters are uninteresting. The creepy guy isn't creepy, which I find odd because there are so many creepy people out there. They should have spit out their window on a Sunday and found someone better. The acting is bad. I'm not sure why anyone liked this movie. I think sometimes people are "supposed to" like boring movies to justify why they wasted their time watching it. My advice though is to skip it.
I just randomly watched this movie with no expectations. I didn't read any reviews or watch any previews. The best way to sum it up is it's an episode of the twilight zone made into a movie. It is quite good and will likely keep you guessing. If you have nothing to watch, I definitely recommend it.This is a somewhat thought provoking movie. Not something that you will finish watching and instantly forget about. It has quite a bit to say about a variety of topics.The only real negative is the annoying over the top acting of one of the girls; especially in the beginning.
