Watch Nightworld: Lost Souls For Free

Dreadfully Boring

A Masterpiece!

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

Lost Souls stars industry veteran John Savage and tells the story of a family who move into a new home and experience unusual events. Among them is a young autistic girl who seems to be at the centre of it all.Truth is I'm pretty sure I've seen this very same plot before, it certainly isn't even remotely original but thanks to strong performances and a competent director it has an identity of its own.Though it doesn't all flow together flawlessly it's a harmless little tale but I'd never say it falls under the horror umbrella. I'd call it a supernatural thriller.Sadly among it's flaws are a few red herrings and unexplained moments/characters that really should have been padded out. Without being the film feels a tad incomplete.Regardless Lost Souls is a just about passable effort even if you'll see the twist coming by no later than half way through the film.The Good:Well madeJohn SavageThe Bad:Twist is a tad predictibleToo many unanswered questionsThings I Learnt From This Movie:I suddenly want a train set!

I started to watch this movie back in 1999, while trying to record another show that I thought was on, but it ended up being this movie and I only had recorded the first hour of it & have been looking everywhere to find out where I can buy it to see the ending!!!! Help, can anybody tell me where I can purchase this? I know, after 8 years, u'd think I'd forget? Nope, gotta see this ending... I thought it was awesome of what I had seen...I had remembered that the name was Lost Souls, but whenever I did a search, I could never find info on it & I remembered the kids finding a box that did something, so when i read a few others comments, I saw that in there and knew I had the right movie. I was just missing the Nightworld part of the title. But know I have the title, I have to find a place to purchase it.Carolyn

Right from the start, this is a gripping horror. You know there's someone out there, watching...Some of the scenes reminded me of Poltergeist - inexplicable happenings, strange voices, dramatic music and the like. Very creepy throughout and full of suspense.My only criticism is that the ending is slightly O.T.T., but it's a good watch all the same.

I enjoyed the film, for its own sake. However, I could not help but notice a substantial number of similarities between it and the Orson Scott Card book titled "Lost Boys."Starting with the introductory scene of the killer (film: we see the killer; book: we are privy to his thoughts), and progressing through a drive through the countryside to a new house. The father works in a technical field where he can be home most of the time (film: bicycle tech manual writing; book: software tech manual writing). His child can contact the dead through an electronic device (film: some strange "Edison" invention, book: the TV). One of the children has a debilitating medical condition (film: autism; book: MS). Both involve a suspicious groundskeeper and interactions with police. In both, the family is nearby a specialized medical institution which is geared towards helping their ill child.I could go on, but you should read the book for yourself, before I give too much away! If you liked this movie, then you'll love the OSC book.Please feel free to e-mail me if you have any comments.--Steve
