A-Z Horror Movie of the Day..."Lovely Molly" (R - 2011 - US)Sub-Genre: Paranormal/PsychoMy Score: 7.0Cast=5 Acting=8 Plot=7 Ending=8 Story=6 Scare=7 Jump=6 F/X=7 Creep=8 Psycho=8A newlywed moves into her deceased father's house in the countryside, where painful memories soon begin to haunt her."Whatever it's done, I'm... I'm not in control anymore." Is it Paranormal or Psychological? I can't say for sure...could be a bit of both. It was a bit slow, but there were several things I liked. There is full frontal nudity and a kill scene that gave me chills. I thought Gretchen Lodge got really creepy toward the end...me likey!
I am surprised by the rating. I do admit regretting watching this movie. The reason is, I would prefer to avoid watching movies with such themes. But the movie itself is of high quality. No unnecessary jump scares. Nothing that would damage the ears. There is a creepy atmosphere and the sound effects are awesome. The song that is sung especially...you will know what I am talking when you watch it. Towards the end, the shot of "that thing" is haunting. That is one thing what I like. The fact that it is more than a story of abuse. It may also be a divisive movie judging by its rating. I don't know why though, it is not a head scratcher like yellowbrickroad or something like that. I can't say I will watch it again though, the themes and some of the scenes are very disturbing for me. 8/10
The fact that I intended to write a review of Lovely Molly then forgot and about it, and a year and a half later I am now is testimony to how memorable the movie is. On undoubtedly a low budget with not a huge cast the overall quality I was impressed with and a real star of the show was the sound design. Its a creepy slow, but not too slow burner that quite gets under your skin. As an avid horror movie goer I'm rarely scared however Molly and its wonderful sound really creeped me out. The movie centres around Molly and her apparent mental problems, and the movie does a great job of actually running the fine line of guessing are they mental issues or is there something else going on, strong performances from all the cast rounded off this great little flick. Highly recommended for those who enjoy creepy horror however be aware the subject of some issues in the movie are adult rated.
