The Girl in the Photographs (2015)

That was an excellent one.

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

The movie is surprisingly subdued in its pacing, its characterizations, and its go-for-broke sensibilities.

Yeah so, like almost every horror movie, it has its cheesy moments. But with this film at least they picked actors who can actually act, so those cheesy moments are intentional. Maybe I'm bias because I'm a fan of Kal Penn, but he can act, as well as everyone else in this, and I think he's funny as a douche bag hipster. It's a new story I haven't seen a million times. There's more than just hunter and prey and it has a good solid story line build up before you get to find out who lives and dies. Best of all there's none of that loud noise, cheap scare bulls---. I watched 30 new (to me) horror and slasher films for October this year and I have to say this was my favorite.

I'm so disappointed,the killer's charter is very weak and boring.Classic psycho obsessed guy.Little action,and a pale plot with no intention of going somewhere.Everything is already seen and done. Where is the police,media?In over of ten days there is no sign of the investigation.It seems like no one is missing not even one of ten people. Does they parents report them for missing?In a small town of 10.000 people where everybody knows everybody.For me it was just a big waste of time.Left me with nothing but a shorter day.Only thing good about this movie was the music,except that nothing.I don't recommender watching this movie even if it was the only thing on earth to watch.

The final "picture" was soooo brilliant that it did add to this very strange movie and yes Kal Penn irritated me at first until MAJOR SPOILER STOP READING IF YOU Haven't SEEN OR WANT TO SEE he got killed and then I blurted out "hey he was my favorite character " so to some extent I must have liked whatever Slam on a Hollywood type photographer he was doing ; now to dissect it would kill the movie; there are too many loose ends we don't know why the killer is a killer or even get any Inkling Of his background etc. BUT the movie as a whole wasn't bad; it definitely has some redemption and the last picture was one of them. I'd recommend waiting for it to come out in video however.

This film drowns in monotony as it ultimately leaves the viewer in a literal state of "can they please just kill these people so this film can end" for an extended amount of time, mostly the last twenty minutes of the film. Losing patience to such a degree means that all feeling for the cast has been lost or in this case never felt to begin with, this is obviously a big problem for a horror film when even the fate of the innocent young lead(Claudia Lee) loses importance. Nick Simon fails to create any atmosphere throughout as well as suspense and tension. There may have been a few small jolts of electricity, but they dissolve almost instantaneously.Despite being well produced, shot and acted with lots of pretty faces and even some nice T&A, this film just doesn't succeed in being what could have been a more engaging horror flick had some serious editing and script adjustment been applied.But in the end I'm still a horror junkie and I have to judge the overall package against it's fellow B horror competitors and there is enough here to possibly warrant some degree of entertainment for those with the same genre affliction, there were some OK kills and to be completely honest the picture the killers leave for the girl in the final seconds was brilliantly done, though a photo cannot undo the overall average plot and mundane feel to this film.
