Now what can one say about Nix - really, I'm trying to think of anything else to say except it's a weird mess. Well it's also pretty boring and yes, it's pretty bad. There is no backround given for this German folklore that this movie is supposed to be about - apart from some woman with German accent and at one point someone said that Nix doesn't mean anything in German. Why would someone in USA just spontaneously say something like that? Who would even think Nix would be German word, I wound't for sure. And that's the problem with this movie. It makes no sense. And it's a weird mess of boring cameratrickery repeat ad nauseam.

Multi layered and some great chilling moments. Goes beyond a horror movie with the family dynamics and world that follows after that fateful day. Dee Wallace is such a good actress and the rest did a mighty job with I'm sure limited time. Director is very experienced and put together a good film. Felt like real life to me, rather than just some people hiding in a cabin from a monster. Scene where Dad comes back in dream like sequence, impactful. Kids did a great job and seemed like real people. The step wife and mother to the one daughter who is strung out ion drugs, heartbreaking a real life stuff.

Tessa (Angelina Karo) loves chocolate chip pancakes and has nightmares about a humanoid lake monster later known as "Nix" the German word for nothing. The family goes camping. Tessa, attempting to fish a ball out of the lake is taken by the Nix and Dad (Michael DeVorzon) is killed by it. The film jumps to 25 years later. Mom (Dee Wallace) is touched in the head as she believes Tessa is still alive. This bothers oldest son Lucas (Skyler Caleb) is dealing with his own demons. Son Jack (James Zimbardi) holds the family together. Lucas has a user ex, Steffie (Angela Cole) who lives separately. Their daughter Zoey (Niesha Renee Guilbot) is staying with them as Steffie deals with issues. Jack has a teacher friend Liz (Angie Teodora Dick) who mentions symbiotic relationships in the classroom. And as all things mentioned in a classroom it always deals with plot or theme by the unwritten script writer's code. About this time the Nix shows back up. The production takes place in Sacramento Co. California. The German woman (Tracy Pfau ) gives us an explanation that is very quick. It is poorly constructed with no background or follow through. The weird "twist" explains some things, but not why this was not figured out sooner, like when it happened. There is also a drug theme that runs through the film for no real reason. The plot was not put together that well. Kudos to Angela Cole who played a convincing drug user. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

I hardly ever leave reviews but I'm so surprised at the low rating this has so I wanted to give my perspective as someone who is easily pleased when it comes to horror films and doesn't need everything to be terrifying or overly complicated. Nix had a cool looking monster, a likeable family, some sad and real moments - You can't ask for much more these days. Not to mention it had a few "ahhhh cool" moments for me. Sure, it was a little vague in places but for what it was, it was fun and interesting as long as you didn't think about it too much. A fun way to spend a Friday night with a friend and some snacks.

I watched as much as I possibly could. I really had high hopes for this film as the trailer and stills looked intriguing. However this film is just blah. There was nothing redeemable. I am tired of the old 'if they had a bigger budget' that is not an excuse. This film lacked foundation and any depth. At times I felt I was having my teeth ripped out by pliers it was that painful to watch. Right from the opening scene I knew I was in for it. The acting was over the top bad, it seemed so forced and I felt no attachment to any of the principal cast. Okay you made a film etc. But just because you can doesn't mean you should.

No connections at all. Don't get to know the characters. Nix doesn't mean anything at all. Movie didn't make much sense. No chronological order. Some weird trippy parts. Acting horrible. Plot lines hard to follow. Nothing explained about the monster. GREAT MOVIE GUYS! I had a great time watching it. You should watch it just for the custom soundtrack at the end. They blew the whole budget on it. Nicks was lowkey kinda weird looking. I wish there was a backstory. Great concept but where was the skills to prove it. Let me remake it for you guys. I'll keep the soundtrack ;) (for the record, I will be hearing that song in my nightmares every night for 3 years)

I'm guessing that the writer and director had visions of a haunting family drama, but missed the mark woefully. There's something to be said for giving your audience some credit for their ability to read the room. There's no such credit here, with every character's role over-played just to make sure the viewer gets the picture of family dysfunction. At least some small degree of subtlety would have helped, and given the audience the opportunity to wait in anticipation for more character revelations. But no, the characters are thrust in your face, along with the 'spooky' character whose lurking presence does little to instil a sense of dread. There's no room here for the viewer to relate to the characters- they are so painfully over-acted and clichéd that it's downright annoying. The premise itself isn't terrible, but it is so poorly executed that it becomes unbearable.
