It Watches

source: It Watches

Let's see. I'm all alone in a strange house that I find to be creepy and unsettling. I inadvertently video-record a few odd occurrences. I invite my girlfriend over for dinner, and during our date night, some stranger claiming to be a neighbor knocks at the door. This stranger offers some *-and-bull story about a group of escaped convicts roaming the neighborhood. I go to check the house, leaving this stranger with my girlfriend. When I come back, she's gone. According to this stranger, my girlfriend just up and left, after complaining to him that I had a very small punishment. I throw the stranger out. What do I do next? I get high as a kite! Because yeah, that's pretty much what anyone would do under those circumstances, right? "It Watches". Do yourself a favor. Don't watch. This rancid turd of a film doesn't even merit one star.

Totally stupid and waste of time. I bet you have not seen any film more stupid than this one

This could have been a really good film if they had employed qualified actors. Low budget or not there no excuse for this level of crapness. But the story was sound and that saddens me more that it could have been great.

This movie was a train wreck. I'll tell you why- You get involved with Andre the main character, who we are led to believe had an automobile accident, yet later in the movie it was just referred to as an accident. And I will let you figure that one out for yourself. You really like Andre, you think he's this good guy stuck in this strange house, busted hand, no car, phone dying, & all of a sudden bizarre things start happening around this house! His friend brought him here, told him to have a weekend to decompress & hopefully the details from the accident which he has amnesia from will come back to him. The house is filled with alcohol, and there's even a box with a lot of weed in it and very little food. It's like someone wants him to get out of his gourd. But the whole house is this bizarre BDSM nightmare! Every room is either black or purple- and I'm the Queen of Metal and it even made me uncomfortable! But the fact is, much as you really like Andre you can see what's coming from miles away! And you really wish it WOULDN'T happen you really hope that they wrote the script differently because it's the "Same Old Situation" as Motley Crue would say. So there really was no excitement or twist at the denumont. The acting was AMAZING even though the script just plain sucked! The outside of the house was GORGEOUS! I would love to live there- wherever they filmed this at, it looks like some sort of an Asian paradise! But I really just can't find anything nice to say beyond that!

Even though it was low budget, I really enjoyed it! Shows how terrifying and frightening the dark side of mankind can be

Robert (Rick Irwin) produces reality TV shows where they set a person in a rigged house with cameras with the intent of scaring them. Andre (Ivan Djurovic) is taken by Robert to a home to house sit. Andre has a concussion and sprained wrist from an auto accident. He has memory and paranoia issues. The house has cameras and Andre tours the house with his own camera as the bulk of the film is unnecessarily hand held camera. A murdered girl is reported on the news as well as death row inmates being transferred. The house makes noises and has manikins under sheets. There is also a locked room. With the scene set, Andre's girlfriend Rachel (Sanny van Heteren) arrives, and he doesn't recall what they did last time they were together. Clearly there is someone else in the house... We see things happen throughout the house. Andre gets high as the director Dave Parker gets to use the fish-eye lens he got for Christmas, no sense letting it go to waste. Things happen that don't make sense until the end, which you may or may not have figured out. I thought Andre's long trip of house discovery to be more annoying than entertaining. The plot was a little better than most hand held type films, but the execution fell short. Guide: F-word. Groping. No sex or nudity. Woman in bra and panties. Note: It is not safe to back out on a busy street with a blind curve. Pull up along side of the road. Back into the driveway.

This film is about a man who, after just recently having an accident that has left him with a foggy memory, choses to help out a friend by house sitting. The house is a bit creepy and after smoking some strong weed and downing some alcohol the house transitions from creepy to scary. What is going on in this house? Being a horror fan can make a viewer become jaded. We are constantly looking for fresh material but all too often you end up seeing the same story lines with just the locations, actors and maybe some of the circumstances being changed. It really can turn you into a harsh critic and I think this is some of what is happening with this film. It is low budget and it's been done before. I didn't think it was all that bad. Like I said, it is low budget but I didn't think that the quality, while lacking, was awful. The actors had both good and bad moments and I thought the story was interesting. I want to give credit where credit is due and I think this one deserves a little more respect that it is getting.

This movie had it all. And with all I mean ice and a good plot twist. But the rest was... questionable. The main character first was what seemed to be a nice gay man, wearing his fancy lil glasses and his cast and just being considerate and cute. He was even filming a vlog for his Nana. But as he turned out to be a heterosexual straight after all, I got a little suspicious. I thought to myself "that's not a good sign...". But then he took some of the coolest drugs I had ever seen... He smokes plastic bags? Hardcore af. 10/10. He might be a straight dude, but a straight dude I can respect. Anyway, besides the point. Andre the straight male went into the basement a few times too often and his vlogging abilities are shitty af. He isn't the brightest candle on the cake, but at least he... no, nothing else. He's just not the brightest. Typical Youtube vlogger, I suppose. All in all I'd give the movie 3/10 stars because of the ice (2 stars)(there was lots of it) and the plot twist (1 star). Also... my friend didn't like the appearance of Andre, next time maybe get an 8 or 9, please.

What KJ James doesn't know.. is that it was made for potheads.. it's funny to me the way reefer madness is funny to me.. especially when he finally gets talked down off the cliff by his friend and starts to chill out in front of the TV with his tornado rip. he starts to trip out on the sound of the tap dripping. the next part was probably the most genuine comedic pothead relief ive seen in a while..
