Watch The Casebook of Eddie Brewer For Free

It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

Blending excellent reporting and strong storytelling, this is a disturbing film truly stranger than fiction

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Close shines in drama with strong language, adult themes.

The Borderlands, The Mirror, now this. Though this precedes the other two by two years.Understated and creepy. Left just enough unexplained/to the imagination. Which is how I like my horror.Characters and dialog chiseled and sculpted with a light, deft hand. Lead character felt like a real bloke: affable, stable, reliable - someone you'd trust in a crisis; yet at the same time has a hidden fuse, a darkness, a mania. At times you're scared for him; at times you're scared of him.The movie reminded me of and made me miss growing up listening to ghost stories on radio on Saturday evenings, with my mother finishing up the dishes in the kitchen the next room over. It has that kind of 'real' feeling.If I had to bone-pick, the shifting in and out of found-footage pov was a little jarring. There's something about the purity of a commitment to found footage - well-executed and credible, of course. The last act was also a bit too jumpy and jumbled.I also like the cover poster with the cave better. (The one with the kid looks low-rent.) They should market the film with that one.

I really enjoyed this film. Going into it I was very sceptical as I have seen a lot of rubbish released lately and nothing that stands out. The casebook of Eddie Brewer goes back to films with a good story and slow burning terror rather than jump scares and gore. Although we are watching a documentary being shot, the viewer watches from the point of view of an outsider rather than a viewer of the documentary so we are privy to seeing things that aren't 'caught on tape'. The film slowly builds up so if you are looking for a horror that from the outset brings you blood and gore,things jumping out, CGI ghosts etc this film isn't going to be for you. However, if you enjoy films that have a bit of a ghost story then give this a go as you'll be pleasantly surprised. This is a low budget UK movie from Director & Writer Andrew Spencer. Cast members played their parts well especially our lead Ian Brooker who was wonderfully well cast and completely convincing as our middle aged, slightly tortured, ghost hunter with a past. A wonderful film - wish there were more like this, I may well have to watch again.

I love this classically wonderful film. I've owned it for around 2 weeks and, already, I've watched it ELEVEN times, with TWO watchings on Christmas day, alone, for being nice instead of naughty.You'll glow over it, yourself, once you've seen it."The Casebook Of Eddie Brewer" is now on my topmost shelf (the only one I ever dust) and is highly unlikely to ever be found on any other.Watch as the excellent Ian Brooker breathes his effortless magic into the world's currently only believable paranormal investigator - it would be an error or undue criticism to view "The Casebook Of Eddie Brewer" as even being fiction, at all!Witness how realistically the ongoing warm-and-cool interaction plays out between Eddie and the documentary film crew accompanying him on his typical (and, sometimes, less so) house calls.Listen to the philosophies of Eddie as he encounters disagreeable or disrespectful individuals. Watch as Eddie stumbles upon a more than everyday case concerning demonic influences insidiously manipulating a little girl and confronting her distraught mother. Smile as Eddie is delighted at quickly being able to reassure an elderly couple that the worrying, suspected paranormal activity in their house is a sign that their undesirable neighbours are going to pot! Eddie Brewer is a paranormal investigator of a trustworthy and lovably old-school persuasion. For the betterment of future British film making, we should dearly hope that there will be more Eddie Brewer films - even, maybe, a TV series, because the available paranormal investigation material (in this country, alone) would never run out, and they'll not find a better actor to play this part - if you see the film, you'll see why.

** SPOILERS ALERT** A low budget documentary-drama mystery, that isn't for the faint hearted, from first time director, Andrew Spencer. We follow the title character (played by Ian Brooker) as he undergoes a disturbing investigation into the paranormal after a number of encounters with a mysterious figure are reported.Brewer must try to bring an end to the strange goings on, but soon discovers another case he is involved with may have something to do with it.On a technical level, the sound design and musical score took the independent feature to another level. The atmosphere and ambiance created by Music Composer, Jamie Robertson was second to none as he demonstrated mastery of music.Overall, a nice little feature shot on the cheap which promises to do well in festivals and selected cinemas in the UK.
