Double Blind

Uh, no idea where films like these get the budget and advertisement. Plot seems like written by 12 year old teenager. There are so many things that just won't happen in real world. Double blind trials don't work that way. People don't act that way. 24h lockdown... what? It would be too long to write how unbelievable this whole thing is. The film has no meaning, nor it tries to explain what is happening. There is some blood and jump scares, but nothing worth remembering. The only good thing here is plot idea. Promising beginning, so you keep watching to reach the big plot twist. Of course, it won't work for second time viewing this film.

I didnt think it was that good in the beginning but when alison died it started getting interesting bit boring but eventually it gets more interesting. Me and my sister watched it together she was scared af i didnt expect the doctor to die like that little traumatizing especially for amir it was very short pretty good i recommend watching another movie after this immediate probably comedy or the one i watched was The Drop 2014 by Tom Hardy pretty good. In the end it was boring in the beginning and then interesting im the end but a little predictable thats all i hope it has a 2nd season maybe more plot.

Claire (Millie Brady) participates in a drug trial run by Dr. Burke (Pollyanna McIntosh). It is in a basement level of Back Wood Pharmaceuticals and the group has to stay there for five full days. It is a simple small Irish horror. It has a small set and a small cast. That's all fine. The concept is simple. Again, that's fine. My biggest issue is that this made me sleepy. It is the theory of the yawn. When one person yawns, it infects the rest of the group and everybody starts yawning. The movie is basically talking about a yawn and daring the audience to follow suit. It makes me sleepy. Otherwise, this is fine.

Double Blind was created out of Nightmare on Elm Street and a bunch of other movies where humans become Guinea pigs and one from the group may be in on it. That can still be fine if done right. All of those were done better. This was very much like a B flick suspense movie minus the suspense. Even with those movies, the characters were developed at least a little bit. Not here. They were simply there with one minor exception - Claire, played by Millie Brady to some small extent. She had a mom in a long term care facility. Big whoop. The bad guys were only on a TV screen from a side view. The administrating doctor was hilariously killed off. See apologizes right before she takes her last breath. She was briefly presented as a protagonist based on one brief scene where she wanted to end the experiment went some results were off. Who could see that coming? I didn't care. In fact, I didn't care about any of the characters. There was no rooting for or against anyone. The young people here are shallow and clueless, but not irritating because the light never shined on the supporting cast long enough to hope one dies. They show up to some lab to take a pill, get poked and prodded for a bit, and collect a nice some of cash for their efforts. When things get slightly hairy the doctor announces the pay will greatly increase if they stay longer. No worries for most of the participants. They apparently have no place to go and no one from the outside world who will miss them and notify the police. What happens next is pretty predictable, but that can still be okay if given some spine tingling suspense. There was none of that here. I was left not having any questions. Not only did I not have any strong emotions, I had no emotion at all throughout because the plot was hollow. A movie like Escape Room was better because you can feel yourself play along. You wonder what hallway you'd would walk down or door you'd open. Double Blind failed to generate any such curiosity.

Such a pitie because the title and the start of the story, let you feel some kind of great revelation ... but, unfortunately the story ended just as at the start let you perceive, without any some revelation. Ok we have to admit that for technical points of views is a good movie, not b-movie, but some kind os suspence, ok but aside of this, you cannot enjoy a good end, so a good story. When the atmosphere start to be strong and in a suspence mood, you want to have som revelation behind the title "double blind" that means something like ... "maybe at the end someone of them taked the placebo? ... maybe all of them take oit the placebo?" ... but matter of fatc nothing different from what you feel from the start.

This was a fairly decent movie with a concept that has been done before. It's an interesting story and as a financially struggling student I can put myself in this situation where you would sacrifice your body and take unknown drugs for a good amount of money. The production value is decent, you can tell that it's not a big Hollywood production but it's also not a small indie movie either. The acting was fine but not outstanding and it was nice to see Pollyanna McIntosh as Dr. Burke even though I think her character was underutilized. As a seasoned horror fan I can say that this movie was overall pretty average and not really outstanding. There's not too much happening and it is ironic that I had to fight against falling asleep while watching a movie where the characters are not allowed to sleep either. Some people might enjoy this more than others but I think this is just an average flick and I will probably have forgotten about it in about a month. [5,3/10]
