The Shadows (2011)

The Shadows is one of those Youtube movies I picked to kill 90 minutes and another embarrassment that I wish that I hadn't.Telling the story of a group of friends who after a boat crash find themselves taking refuge in a seemingly haunted light house.The plot makes very little sense, the execution is dreadful, the movie is often so dark you miss whats going on altogether and there are plenty of scenes that are unintentionally hilarious.Pitiful attempt at a horror which is also labelled as a mystery and a er....romance!? The Good: The setting, when you can actually see it The Bad: Awful sound editing Dull characters Why does such a great setting look so drab? Poor soundtrack Laughable soap level acting Ridiculous cgi Things I learnt from this movie: Planks nailed to a door can be easily lifted off If you're already dead and a ghost you can't die....except that guy.......and that girl Everyone in fear instinctively will recite the bible verse regarding fearing no evil Cheating protagonists seem to be a common norm now in the movie industry

I wish I'd read Paul M H's review before spending time on this film. His review describes this movie perfectly. The story is weak. The scenery is weak. The actors tried, bless their hearts, but there really wasn't much for them to work with. It was hard to care about any of them. There really isn't much else to say about this film, except that you may do better find an alternate.I would stop typing, but IMDb won't post my review because I didn't provide enough sentences/characters. So I will type on to save someone else 89 minutes of life that is better spent elsewhere. I would prefer to keep this short and sweet, but, alas, the website will not permit such brevity.So, if you like weak stories, dark and simple scenery, scripts that don't set the scene, unbelievable characters that come from nowhere, have at it!

"The Shadows" is listed as a movie under horror, mystery and thriller. But wow, this was a snoozefest of untold magnitude. I started drifted away from the movie early on, and the movie never managed to fully captivate me or lure me back in.Five friends are stuck at an old lighthouse, trapped by circumstance and trapped by a storm. They soon start having to face their own dark secrets and fears.Right... Well, the storyline seemed to have potential and might have worked on paper. But director Sabrina Mansfield failed to bring about a properly entertaining movie.The characters in the movie were one-dimensional and you never even once connected to anyone of them. And the cast, while trying their very best, just didn't have anything tangible to work with."The Shadows" is an excruciating movie to get through given its slow pace, inadequate storyline and lack of enthralling characters. "The Shadows" should stay in the shadows, shrouded and hidden away.If you enjoy a proper mystery then "The Shadows" should not be your first of movie choices.

Starring: Vaz Andreas, Nalita Murray.This film is pretty amazing seems set was half a light house and the shadows,literally.Acting was great and real,Some seem to really know the craft of performance.Minor flaw,and We know it has to be dark for shadows,BUT sometimes its too dark in a scene.The pirate character was awesome and the wench who didn't know she was dead.Vaz and Nalita steal the movie with strong scenes in focus of plot.Vaz has been in many Theasylum mockbusters. this was Nalita screen debut and she nailed it.
