Ratter

Topic: electronic gadgets might get hacked! And these gadgets (laptops, smartphones, etc) have cameras and some of us ALWAYS bring them along wherever we go. Topic is interesting and though the characters act to a B-level, the movie was like watching a Finnish TV-theater from the -70's of a couple in a Sauna. Almost entire movie was filmed inside the sauna and nothing interesting happened. The viewer is left waiting for something to happen.... And it never does.. Don't bother watching the movie, call an old relative instead and do a good deed, it's time way better spent!

All of the low reviews for this movie are most likely bandwagoners who want to seem cool and knock this film because it's a low budget. Indie film and doesn't have a lot of action. This is a PSYCHOLOGICAL movie and mind you, very creepy. It plays on a lot of our's worst fear, an intruder in our home, especially at night while we are sleeping. Or someone watching our every move. Ashley Benson also does a great job with her realistic portrayal of a girl who's just moved to another state to live on her own and doing some questionable and/or embarrassing things while alone, thinking no one is watching. And the ending, holy crap, I got chills all over my body, its so unexpected and scary and seems so real. This isn't nearly the best movie I've ever seen but I was glued to the screen, and I'm not afraid to say that, because they brought the creep factor and I was definitely paranoid after watching. If you scroll down you can see a lot of people rate this movie really well, before all these low ratings of "1" grouped together following each other like sheep. Come on, be realistic, this movie deserves much more than a 1. That is beyond exaggeration. I think if you like thrillers like this, you'll be in for a treat!

Low budget movie, but that's no excuse for the weak plot. I wasted 1h20' for nothing, I actually made an account on IMDb especially to rate this so called horror-thriller movie with 1. 4,7 is a joke. One word: boring! And the ending... God, what a waste of time and money. From the trailer i thought it's much better, but how wrong I was. I wouldn't recommend it to anyone. It was just pointless. It's not scary or interesting, let alone entertaining. I don't know who would rate this movie high, I know we all have our different taste, but come on, it's just a boring, boring movie. I watched tons of horror movies, and while I don't really need the gore, I like tense creppy movies, regardless of the low budget. But this one had none of the above. This was just plain BORING. I know I've said it 10 times already, but thats the first word that comes into my mind when thinking of RATTER. BORING!

There's a lot of negative reviews for this film and, while I can see some of the issues pointed out by other users, I actually liked this much more than expected. I found this film to be quite disturbing. It's a slow burn and yes, the fact that the entire film is shot on hand held devices can be a bit off-putting. I found it really effective though, and a simple way to highlight our reliance on technology. There are screens everywhere - I'm writing this on my phone and my laptop is open playing a series on my TV. As a woman who has lived alone and has had her fair share of creeps, this movie builds the sense of dread quite well. Others have commented on its boring nature, but for me it was effective simply because it was about the quotidian activities of our lives - there's no horror, no major twists and turns, it's just about the life of one fairly ordinary (albeit pretty damn gorgeous) young woman. That's why it works. She's realistic and relatable so seeing the escalation of the stalker's actions and its impact on her life and the people around her is super creepy.

This film was a pleasant surprise and did remind me slightly of The Den which i also reviewed and enjoyed on here. Ashley Benson is what originally attracted me to the film as i love her in Pretty Little Liars. She plays a similar role and is her usual cutesy self. However, this film quickly takes on a much more eerie feel to it than that of PLL and ends up being a sinister precautionary tale of how invasive our modern technology can be and we need to protect ourselves as much as possible. Definitely worth a watch and for such a low budget still manages to make your skin crawl with atmosphere.

Only reason I got the movie was cause Ashley is in it but it was the most horrible decision I have made in 2016. It's sad cause I was really hype to see Ashley in something other than Pretty Little Liars. Way to drop the ball people .It's super boring I actually fell asleep while watching it the only really non dull part of the movie was the ending where the stalker finally comes out of hiding out of nowhere and I really do mean no where the lights got caught off in her apt then she starts screaming then boom she's wrestling with him. End of movie what a shame !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! !

Ratter (2015) 5,1 Drama, Horror, Thriller Sounds like a good movie to watch.. -------------------------------- I have to make an account here on IMDb just to review this movie. I have watch tons of movies.. - I cant understand how this movie can get 5.1.. This movie is an super amateur cellphone record B-movie whitout any Drama, Horror & Thriller in it.. Absolute waste of time, Top 5 on the worst movies ever made. ridiculous bad. i would rather die then watch this movie again..... I believe that this movie came from some kind of school- project or likewise but this movie don't place here for public conception. + 1 scene when the man entered the apartment was OK but the rest is nonsense for me. Over and out

And I've watched some bad ones. The movie just drags and the sound is bad at times. I take it we're supposed to be hearing it like the 3rd person. It plays out like a high school movie project. Parts are looped like we're supposed to feel like the hacker is replaying the exchanges in their head or it's supposed to incite fear. I'm not even sure what was supposed to be watching the character at times. Considering the angles they show it at. And the ending, without spoiling it it was juts god awful. All in all, one of the worst movies.

Potentially a good film spoiled by having no end. I have seen thousands of films the last 35 years, but it seems that today film makers are less and less bothered about a good ending. The acting was OK in it, actually deserves a 7, the location looked OK, another 7, The story line and subject was fine, 7 again, but I guess the film maker had no money left over for a normal ending. And that makes it worth a 1. You wouldn't by a car without engine, or a house without a roof, would you? Even an empty bread bag would not pass a till. I couldn't have cared if she would survived, got killed, turned into a privacy activist or what ever, but pls pls pls, give films an ending. As from 2010, the difference in a good film or a bad film seems to focus on the end of the story. Imagine: The Green Mile without the end scene between two older people, The sixth sense without explaining at the end that the guy actually was dead all the film long, The Hunger Games missing part 4? That's what the "ratter" is about. Quick and cheap productions without an end... Thanks.

Instead of using sleeping pills why not just throw in this movie? Although the movie has a well known cast, the plot is nothing special. It has no resolution at the end and goes through the boring life of a college girl. If you are looking for entertainment I recommend your local news channel because there will be more drama and horror in that than this movie. It is noticeable that the goal of this movie is to advice viewers on the concerns of technology, but this public service announcement could have been done in a more entertaining way. Unless you have a slight foot * or a strange appreciation for web cams, I do not recommend this movie.
