No Tell Motel (2012)

Thanks for the memories!

Did you people see the same film I saw?

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

There's a line in one of my favourite films called Ratatouille (though I feel I'm soiling it by even bringing it up here) that tells us Anyone Can Cook... even a rodent. Well, anyone can make a horror film... even an idiot. But that doesn't mean they should. Especially one devoid of scares, where the dumb people barely react when their 'friends' bite the bullet, and when the 'twist' is like, the stupidest thing EVER in the history of mankind. And yes, we all know little girls who just stand there staring at you saying nothing, are naturally creepy, but overuse this formula and you're liable to be accused of lacking ideas. The dude behind the camera here hasn't got an original thought in his noggin.It's not big, it's not clever and it certainly isn't the least bit enjoyable. F's all round, and back to film school for you, Mr Wannabe. Sometimes, I think it would be easier to teach a cat to fetch than make a decent scary movie... 3/1

Definitely the worst horror movie of the year i have seen.. Not only the script but the acting and plot it was all too predictable.. I also feel bad for the actors. But what i mostly did not like was that movie theaters do play these movies. It feels like you are being ripped off. Lately i see a lot more of movies from where i wonder why do they play these movies. Is it because they can buy these movies for less money and makeup for some losses? Because i bought a ticket i cannot return. Anyway this movie does not belong in the theater.. However sometimes i am happy they still make these kind of movies because than i know that there is still hope for me and my movies. Any way thank you for listening - i will for sure recommend this movie as a "bad movie". I hope the director will do well next time.

Anyone who says this is a film worth a rating above 2 was either paid to write that or is a producer in disguise. This film is beyond Horrible. The directing is nonexistent. The acting is nonunion for a reason--no one can act. The writing...well, you get what you paid for and they paid nothing. The producers are as bad as the film for a reason. At the AFM Screening for this show, it is reported that everyone walked out of it--for good reason. It's a mess from top to bottom, if you actually stay around that long, which I was unable to do. Don't even think of seeing this film, If you need to spend your money that badly, give to a homeless person. At least you've done something good that you can feel better about.

I must admit that the poster/cover for "No Tell Motel" did catch my attention and it was what made me sit down to watch it. Although now I really wish I hadn't. This movie was a complete waste of time in my opinion.The story is not really particularly great, and it lacks appeal and lacks the ability to captivate the audience. The story seems to be forced together by odd bits and pieces, mixed together with a ghostly little girl. The storyline is somewhat skittish and jumpy, which doesn't really work out to anyone's favor.As for the characters, well I will say that they were one-dimensional and lacking personality and any kind of magnetism to make you really care about them. They are too generic and shallow, which makes you just shrug on the shoulders whenever something happens to them in the movie. I am sure that the various actors and actresses are good enough on their own accounts, but the characters they had to work with in this movie did them no justice.Scary moments? Well you have to look long and far for them in this movie, because there weren't any. And as a matter of fact, there were even close to nothing thrilling in the movie as well. "No Tell Motel" is a fairly tame experience for a horror movie, and there are far better ghost movies out there for your viewing pleasure."No Tell Motel" was somewhat of a struggle to get through, and more than once I found my attention drifting else where and my eyelids growing surprisingly heavy. This is not really worth the time or effort, unless you have absolutely nothing else to watch, or if you are a hardcore fan of someone on the cast list.
