Dimples (2008)

I love Madeline Zima. I think she is not only very beautiful, but a good actress. So maybe I am a bit bias...but not really...if I think a movie is horrible I would say so. AND Dimples is not horrible by far as some people seem to think on here. I agree with the lopsided critique comment as in I can see why. Dimples is steeped in creepy foreplay before it gets too a ton of action. I liked that...some people don't. I felt the movie was well made, paced with precision and was shot great and the acting was STELLAR in comparison to most horror mumbo jumbo. Sometimes I watch horror films and think, "shoot I should be an actor" and I could be possibly the worst actor in the world. I can't even lie to my cat. But in fact, Dimples had some good acting period...no matter the genre...I felt. Not just from Madeline, who I agree was one note, but I do agree that was the part. That was the character. Some of the performances were muted, but again they seemed real to me...not just caricatures of people, but people. Once the action kicked in there was some great scares and some stuff that still kept your mind cookin. What I appreciated was that there was not just wall to wall jump scares like most horror has nowadays and the gore was not so horrific as to be almost horror pornographic. Anyway, just my opinion of many. I have and would recommend this film. I also loved the twist in the end. Have fun!

Awful. Truly Bad! It would be a crime to recommend this one. Got fooled by the name and some stupid reviews. Absolutely no twist, exceptionally poor acting. LAME LAME LAME!Nothing seems to be fine - music is bad, voices sound distant. Story just makes you impatient. I was really hoping to see something big towards the climax, but there wasn't any at all. Apparently I was happy to see the credits roll as I could not have tolerated the boredom any further.Keep away from this movie!

I agree with some of the comments about this movie. The film is full of clichés and bad acting. At moments the plot and the acting of the actors are so illogical and just ridiculous. Some moments I believe were meant to be very psychological, strong and powerful. Instead they are naive, boring and amateur. The movie bears resemblance to a great horror flicks from the 70's like " The Texas chainsaw massacre" , "Tourist trap" , "Hills have eyes" , etc... Well very obviously this is another unsuccessful attempt to make a scary movie, and today's ran-out-of-ideas horror directors are hoping that the 70's horror movies golden mine can be always used. Sorry guys but it's not working!

This film went places i did not expect it to go. It seemed typical on the surface, but really wasn't. As well, the over all ambiance and tone of the film was very creepy, well made. The acting was great for a horror film ( i know that sounds strange, but I have come to expect horrible acting in horror films) The cinematography was nice, a little to hand held for me at times, but that seems to be to "go to" aesthetic for horror films, well films in general these days. It worked in parts, but when things settled it did get a bit annoying. Nevertheless, the film flowed well kept me intrigued and ended a bit abruptly, but the TWIST i never saw coming. Left a definite impression.
