Jeez I would give the film a break eh?.. This is a True Story..A true story of a Young Couple with a little girl, who`s Aunt lived on the Property in her Trailer Van..
Lisa had the sparks of her mothers gift, and also Heidi their little Girl showed signs of the gift too. Her Aunt Joyce was gifted too .. We have three females in the family who moved into their home ..only to find that it had a history.. firstly history with a good side, but unfortunately also a darker side. God think if this TRUE story all your family lived this .. No it wasnt a special effects and fake blood.. slashing and moments of hiding behind a cushion cos u know some monster with a "mask" like Friday 13th..,,
The film was beautifully created with a sense and feel of knowing all .. of this actually Happened.. that 3 females ..all with a gift.. piece by piece, unearthed a part of history which helped so many slaves find the freedom and liberty of a new start in life.. that itself is a story, Just as the story where a Man who Once Was Captain of a Ship that brought people across the ocean to become slaves and treated as animals..He had a kind of vision, and so quick he felt and realised what a monster he was ..these were human beings from a far away land from America..filled with a sense of heavy guilt he turned his life around and from that moment on he did all he could to at least try give something good back,and lived the rest of his days helping the slaves to set them free. He wrote a Poem and it started with the words Amazing Grace... Thats where the Christian hymn adapted that poem to become one of the most famous hymns of all time..
So that piece of history this filmed showed ..maybe someone will find inspiration to want to direct a movie all about these underground trains.. Just as the Poem Amazing Grace was made into a movie..
It was a horror, but a mystery and inspired by true events.. So it didn't need anything spectacular or over dramatic.. It was believable, and emotional, spiritual and historic feel too..The Director for me truly achieved to have found the true essence of this true event and created a pretty damn good ..awesome Movie.
Maybe people should create genres of all Horror Films zombie,slasher,paranormal,fantasy,mystery,supernatural etc..
So maybe alot of people are going to be expecting a good scary horror with knives monsters blood and scares..
this isnt that type of horror movie.. I really enjoyed it ..it was well acted witha very young actress that played an excellent Heidi, and the storyline had a good sense of you realising it was running a longer course with every new discovery..
I gave it an 8/10
