The Executioners

This movie was horrible and definitely needs a Rape trigger warning. Crappily written, crappy plot, really nothing good about it.

This movie it's similar to Scary movie, you laugh at everything, but the only change is that this movie tries to be serious but it is not, at all!, you laugh by only seeing the "bad guys" with the blue and red paint. And you can easily predict the end, with the classic "dumb mastermind" character Good movie if you want to laugh for a while But a really bad movie if you want to take it seriously.

Awesome acting && Scared the Shiizzzznit out me. Definitely recommended on my "MUST SEE'' list!

The Executioners wasn't a good film. The story was weak. It's a low budget horror home invasion thriller film. It's definitely a one time watch if you haven't got nothing else to watch. I wouldn't recommend it. The cinematography was very grind house style. The acting was good enough especially for a low budget film. The blood and gore effects was ok nothing great. The ending was stupid tbh. I would spoiler the ending. 2/10.

Not the worst movie and not the best. Some of them couldn't act or scream. It was a little bit of a mess. I don't really see the point of this movie killing them all for what? Fame?

The good: a very good performance from Natalie Burn. But that's pretty much all you get here. And that's kind of stretching it... This film doesn't even deserve a full sentence-structure effort from me so instead here are bullet points for the many lowlights in this MUST MISS flick: Exploitation and sexploitation films can be fun and of good quality [Troma, Ed Wood, etc...] but this one is just idiotic and mean-spirited. It even fails on the sexploitation bit as there is zero nudity during the second act, giving us absolutely unnecessary nudity in the form of a bathtub scene featuring Miss Burn. FAIL. Strangers is an example of a home invasion film done right. The invaders here are nearly as inept as the idiots from Home Alone. This actually happens in the film: the victims end up arming one of the invaders/rapists/killers with a gun after the tables have been turned. Yes, you read that right. Truly an epic WTF moment in cinema. Never have I heard worse ADR sound effects - the gunshots sounded like they were all recorded in a dive bar toilet...but without the classiness. The so-called twist ending is so patently absurd it defies all logic. A lot people tried to make a movie here. Pretty much everyone failed in their task, except for Natalie Burn. Kill the shills on imdb - this movie is the definition of an irredeemable waste of time. A very weak 4, one higher than my minimum imdb rating, solely for a competent performance from a single actress.

'The Executioners' drew me into seeing it, with a cool poster/cover, an intriguing if not particularly original premise and as someone with a general appreciation for the genre. That it was low-budget, which from frequent personal experience is rarely a good sign due to that there are so many poor ones out there, made me though apprehensive as well as the low rating and poor reviews. It is sadly however yet another film seen recently, hence some reiteration because the exact same strengths and flaws those films have are present here, that to me was incredibly disappointing considering its potential which it doesn't do anywhere near enough with. 'The Executioners' is yet another terrible films, with a plethora of problems (huge ones too). There is next to nothing to recommend. Lets start with the sole positive. The scenery is atmospheric and spooky at times. Unfortunately, the scenery is not done justice by the rather direct to video schlocky way it's shot and edited and the drab colour palette, so much so it was hard to appreciate it, it was very clear that the film was made in a rush with no care or enthusiasm. In particular, the camera work was a nauseous assault on the eyes with its excessive amateurish-ness. Going on further to the negatives, the story does feel paper thin, disjointed and over-stretched and some of it feels vague, under-explained in the last third where the film especially became duller, more predictable, more senseless and less scary. Too many characters are too sketchy and with nowhere near enough to make one want to endear to them. Their annoying and illogical decision making and behaviours frustrates. Making the film feel bland and forgettable with not enough heart put into it. The effects are ropy at best, the sound quality is extremely cheap and poorly recorded and it's best not mentioning the uniformly inept acting, especially from the home invaders, role that are also written unbelievably and disastrously. Dialogue can be stilted and rambling, with lots of clichés and no depth whatsoever, while the pace goes to a standstill very quickly and drags on forever with very little going on worth caring about and useless padding, never recovering. Found too many the supposedly shocking moments not surprising or scary and the supposedly creepy atmosphere dreary, due to the excessive obviousness, a lot of dumb and vague moments and explanations and the lack of tension and suspense. Would not have minded the lack of originality (the film is extremely derivative and in a dumbed and watered down way) if the story and atmosphere were at least alright in execution, in reality they were both very poorly done. A lot of 'The Executioners' has underdeveloped plot elements and often nonsensical and confusing character motivations, while too many of the things to make you jump or shocked are far from creative or scary and are pretty tame. The ending can be seen from miles away and is insultingly absurd. There is not enough threat, and what there is of it tends to be used poorly, it is completely unimaginative and more odd than creepy, completely failing to show any sense of horror or creativity. Everything here is neither creative, suspenseful or nail-biting. Some badly sagging momentum too and the gore and such are overused and gratuitous. The direction is leaden and like their heart was not in it or ill at ease, with the chemistry between the characters and actors coming over as constantly random and aggressive with the subtlety of an axe. Overall, awful with no redeeming value apart from an element that is difficult to appreciate with it being complemented so badly. 1/10 Bethany Cox

I was intrigued by the plot summary and was kind of excited to watch this. I'm a big fan of horror movies taking place in mainly one location, so this seemed right up my alley. It starts off...okay. The acting leaves A LOT to be desired but it sets the stage decently. That's when things go downhill. Fast. The "villains" are comically stupid. They are constantly getting tricked by stupid ploys, they can't seem to handle 3 tied up women, and they look ridiculous. My favorite part was when one of them had a gun to a girl's head and was thwarted by another girl hitting him in the ankle. There are also some major continuity issues and unintentionally comedic scenarios. Avoid this.

I love home invasion movies so when I saw this movie and read the plot I got really excited. Let's see what makes this movie a meh one: They actually spoiled the movie in the first few minutes, there was this scene that just spoiled everything. The three stooges who invaded the house, their acting was really bad and unconvincing at all. The editing was not that great and distracting sometimes, There were really some interesting stuff here and there that makes you say 'well, that's interesting' but it wasn't explored in a new way so by the end of the movie all you can say is ''meh, seen better'' and you move on to other stuff....
