The Barn

It drags on and on. An enterprising young woman is trying to dig deep into a string of murders in a small town. But it's very slow paced. Supposedly a virus went a round the world after 9/11 making young people nuts, and this one guy keeps them in his barn and they just stand there all the time. Another guy related to him or something and doesn't talk throws rocks at the barn. At one point he finds a body in his shed so he calls the local cop. The cop is like, another one? And the guy who found the body tells the cop to clean up. No questions, no searching the area for clues? I got tired and went to bed before the end.

I cannot praise this film enough. This movie was amazing. It's got definite 80s horror vibes , it's clear that a lot of heart and soul and love for a dying genre went into making this. Wonderful feelings of nostalgia. It's shot wonderfully, it's creative, the characters are likable, the costumes and makeup are fantastic, the acting is great in my opinion, I mean it's a throwback to 80s horror. Everything in this movie is perfect. It's cheesy over the top outlandish goofy gruesome and a general horror masterpiece. Definitely DEFINITELY worth a watch and then several more .

I accidentally watched this thinking it was The Barn from 2016. Amazon Prime has them mixed up on their Prime Video website. This movie was extremely bad, so please dont make the same mistake I did thinking its the other movie. This one is horrible.

I thought this movie was actually really good. The single setting of the rural farm created an atmosphere of familiarity , mixed with isolation and dread.. Some of its secrets are given up early, but this is intentional, as it creates questions , in the viewers mind, about who is, or who isn't, aware of what's going on. I thought Ken Samuels, as Gil, was fantastic as a troubled man dealing with his devotion to his community, while wrestling inner demons from his past. His relationships, with the people around him, were fairly compelling, and existed upon a fragile foundation of pain and a deep sense of loss. I recommend this movie. It isn't your typical horror movie, but I thought it was much better than some, more well known movies I have recently seen.
