Come Back to Me (2014)

Unique, semi-corny and ridiculous, but, overall it's worth a watch.

I went into this movie with no expectations, and someone else picked it out so I thought why not give it a shot. Boy, do I almost regret it (almost because we gave up eventually). I have seen a LOT of bad horror movies, and this is definitely one of the WORST. There are no redeeming qualities to be found with a plot that requires too much suspension of disbelief, unlikable characters, weak acting, poor production quality, and overall bad execution. I understand it is based on a novel, but it is outrageous that the viewer is expected to sit through a barrage of disconnected scenarios before being given a neat little explanation for everything at the very end. Personally for me, it ended up being a twist more terrible than, but along the same vein of, what I had predicted based on the title and the opening scene. A waste of time.

What? I mean really, what? What did I just watch? Even if I were to concede that the idea of the movie was good--that of resurrecting the dead by breathing into them--even IF I conceded this was a good premise, the execution was horrible.1.) The acting was wretched, especially on the part of the female version of Haley Joel Osment who played the lead.2.) The movie itself became quite daft because the actions of the lead character were daft. Breaking into your neighbor's house because he seemed weird. Staying at home to "find out what's going on" when you know that some crazy crap is going on. Coming into your house with a weapon drawn knowing your husband is there because his car was in the driveway. There were too many unforgivable faux pas in this movie to let slide.3.) The finale was predictable, cliché and unimaginative. Sarah not reaching her husband when she critically has to tell him not to go home. The husband actually going home. The husband being bound and gagged to look like Dale so Sarah can shoot him and other cinema sins such as the husband simply throwing the bad guy down as though that took care of the problem.This movie was terribly done. This very concept in the hands of good writers and a good director could've been so much more. But, as it is, it will be a forgotten flick hopefully never to be brought back.

This was a really good film with excellent acting and good score. The locations were just OK but the story and directing made up for that. Just goes to show good films can be made without big names. I always enjoy a movie where you don't know what's going to happen, this certainly did that for me on many occasions.It has you involved from the start to the end with strong conviction. The leads are great.This should have got more press.Totally recommend to watch! Good story! Good acting! Great score! Great Directing!! Don't be put off by rating! Good scares!!Don't miss this one!!!!! A fun watch! On Netflix too!!
