Terrified

Terrified (2017) is an Argentinean horror movie I recently watched on Shudder after seeing a couple posts about it on here. The storyline focuses on some detectives who investigate some strange occurances at some houses virtually across the street from each other - first a murder than a corpse of a little boy that's sitting at the table of a family who buried him four days ago. Just as police feel comfortable they've got all the details on the occurances things really get exciting. This movie is directed by Damian Rugna (You Dont Know who You're Talking To) and was made with a fairly limited budget ($367,000). The acting, special effects, cinematography, intensity and gore in this is outstanding. Absolutely phenomenal. There were about 5 scenes that I don't think any director and special effects teams could have done better than how it was portrayed in this film - the opening bathroom scene, the video of the creature crawling out from under the bed (so creepy), the boy's corpse at the table, the police finding the creature under the bed and the hole in the wall scene. All remarkable. I absolutely adored this movie and wish I had jumped on it sooner. This is a horror masterpiece I'd strongly recommend and score it a solid 9/10. I hope they make a sequel by the same team.

Amazing. very good acting and scary most of the time.... super recommended!!!

Not sure what all the hype is about. While there are certainly some substantial visual scares, the plot is largely non-existent. The pace is agonizingly slow. I fell asleep 3 times while streaming, and had to keep going back. Also - most of the characters don't seem to react in any way remotely "natural" when confronted with supernatural goings on: Dead kid at the breakfast table? No worries, we'll just go outside and calmly chat about it - leaving the unconscious mother lying on the couch in the next room. Weirdly distorted and bloody things chasing you around? Just drive a block or two away, and have a smoke. Spooky beings under your bed and/or walking around your bedroom? Just climb back and pull the covers over your head! Nevermind the *gun* you have in the next room - don't get that out until it's too late! I could go on. One of the biggest complaints regarding any horror film dealing with supernatural events is that characters aren't reacting logically. Sometimes that can be excused by the events of the movie, but not so in this film. Anyway - this is hardly the cinematic event some reviews are making it out to be. I'd pass on it, tbh. You're not going to miss anything.

Did I watch different film???Everybody raving about this film...Nothing special,thrown together ideas from better movies without much sense,acting is terrifying(in a bad way)))Nothing special at all.I understand that most people fed up with Hollywood ,but it doesn't mean every forein film is a gem...

First of all, the art on the poster is excellent, which attracted me to this film. Unfortunately no visual in the film matched this. I found the first death scene very creepy, although I think, that the husband's reaction could have been more intense. If Iwitnessed something like that, I'd be overwhelmed with horror. It was the scariest scene in the film, I thought. After that the film started going all over the place, showing paranormal events in three different residences. The events really didn't have much, if any continuity, nor explanation, which diminished my interest. In the end, a group of scientists and police investigated these paranormal occurrences, but came to no understanding of them. So the film has some interesting, paranormal scenes, with very little cohesion to them.

I watched this movie as a recomandation from a movie group on facebook. I read a review on horrormovietalk, and they gave it a 9 / 10 - I say OK, lets do it... this will be fkin amaaaazing .. Na-ah, it was stupid, boring, story was almost invisible, monsters were ugly, there were no jumpscares for me, no suspense created, no tension, something to keep me extremely curious about the movie. Really didn't enjoyed this movie, others loved it but no me, for me was a waste of time. Too bad that the beginning of the movie looked soooo good, but that was all that was good in this movie.

I watched this recently and was very surprised at how good this was. Wonderfully shot, good acting and some nice tense scenes. Okay, it's not the most original horror movie out there and it does use some cheap scares but it all adds up. Give it ago.

First off, I like the film. It is creepy, part 'The Conjuring', part 'The Beyond'. What I didn't care for (more of an 'irritant' than anything else), is that it lacks character development...it doesn't 'focus' on any one person and build a story around them, but 'jumps' around, and just leaves us wondering what happened to character 'A'. That, and some idiotic inconsistencies, such as when a character keeps telling others that they need to leave... it's like, 'leave already, no one is stopping you'...but inevitably sticks around...with predictable results. And then, someone miraculously 'recovers' after a major health episode, one that has him begging to go to the hospital...and what does he do ? He goes off by himself... and has a smoke ! But, if you don't analyze it too much, and just go in to have fun and get some scares, it's a good film.

Would've been scarier without music. and if the scare scenes were more ambiguous. also lacks an actual plot

Ahh, a breath of fresh air! Can you feel it too? You the one about to read some movie info in order to make the best decision: see it or not? Of course you have to see it! Even its name is on point, as it seriously delivers a massive quantity of fear and panic. I can't go into too many details with this one as I fear i might ruin it for you, so just understand that it is a big step up from your average horror/supernatural, with lovely elements from both worlds, combined into a small gem. Aterrados is proof that Latin countries are starting to develop better horror than our casual Hollywood productions, because if you put this next to Silent House (Uruguay) and a big list of Mexico and Spanish movies, well, the future looks bright and world wide. Cheers!
