If you want an Australian accent, cast an Australian. Not an English girl who's accent changes back to British every 2 seconds and sometimes sounds like she's from NZ? It took away from the movie SO BADLY - I loved the premise and found it interesting but man, her accent really ruined it. That's coming from an Aussie who knows we don't sound like that 😂

The story itself is played out quite well albeit completely full of holes. A few points for the 2 gory scenes. Bad dialogue, bad script, bad acting, bad premise, bad pacing, bad delivery, boring development and incredibly bad production. Also VICTIMS are waiting to be killed. There's no: Thriller/action/ ... they all just seems to be stoned, waiting for the killer's blow. Ones you have seen the first kill, the rest gets bored. And always crap about sins ?? Get's bored also after a while. The idea was good, but those actors and stuff ?? Really ?? Due the gore added, it's worth picking up but the supernatural stuff wasn't my thing at all. I'm gonna watch now: WELP/CUB from my country: Belgium. Seems to be a bit more descent.

This movie is highly underrated. If you compare it to mainstream horror films, it already stands out. Yes, there are not that many artsy shots, but it is also not as slow-paced as other horror films. We are all tired of characters inching forward in the dark to the tune of some nervous violins. This doesn't have much of that. What it does have is a really nice setting, likable characters, gory deaths that are predictable but still enjoyable, and a crisp backstory. I wish there was more about this backstory, like maybe a sequel that focuses on the villain's past. He may not be much of a villain now, but his backstory is better than Jason Voorhees's or Freddy Krueger's. It also manages to tell a 'Repent or Die' story without coming off as preachy, which is quite an accomplishment if you look at righteous little pieces of work like The Suffering and The Binding. Kudos for that. I have to take points off for our heroine's sub-par acting at times. She's the star of the film but doesn't seem to have an awful lot of variety in her facial expressions. The marine, for instance, gives a much better performance. Overall 7/10.

Reminding me heavily of Reeker (2005) this neat little horror is well made but sadly makes very little sense. Telling the story of a number of people who get aboard a tour of Holland but become stranded and under attack from an unseen enemy who seems to know their darkest secrets. The idea is quite clever, the execution is solid but where it fails is the execution and wide quantity of plot holes and unexplained events. I wanted to like this and was certainly impressed with the quality but just couldn't get past certain head scratching moments. Perfectly watchable stuff but it is the very definition of take your brain out entertainment. The Good: Decent kills Well made The Bad: Plenty of plot holes Things I Learnt From This Movie: When hiring a nanny employees will not do an extensive background check That kid will need SO much therapy

"This isn't hell, this is Holland," reasons Patrick Baladi's Douglas West at one point, whilst holed up in a windmill with a group of others, just as stranded as he is. Baladi, perhaps best known for his role in 'The Office', heads a truly excellent cast in what turns out to be a hugely enjoyable horror. First of all, we meet Jennifer (Charlotte Beaumont), who is operating as a child minder under an assumed name. Soon we discover she has run away from her native Australia due to a tragic accident. We're not told specifics, but she continually suffers flashbacks and what she thinks are hallucinations. It turns out she set fire to the family caravan, deliberately burning alive her abusive father – and by accident, her young brother. Boarding a bus for The Happy Holland Tour, alongside a small group of others (despite having no ticket – "Ah well, what's another sinner? Just joking," jests the weary driver/guide Abe (Bart Klever), all of whom have guilty secrets of their own), their crimes are revealed at leisure throughout the film, and they are briskly – and gorily – dealt with by a ravaged, scythe-wielding killer. Only West's young son Curt (Adam Thomas Wright) appears to be an innocent, although at times, the film allows us to have our doubts about him. There is a truly diverse cast here, of many ages. No clichés, no stereotypes, just very real characters played by excellent actors (especially Wright, who exhibits none of the precociousness displayed by other juveniles). Curt suffers the most, perhaps; hearing his strained father has done something horrible to his mother, he then has to watch the images, on his mobile phone, of his father being beheaded. His fate is the only one not accounted for at the film's close. Even our protagonist has to pay for her crime. As the windmill is set afire, it seems history is repeating itself, with another youngster trapped inside. This time, however, she saves him, but this does not atone for her crime in the eyes of 'the master'. Director/Writer Nick Jongerius has guided us on a terrific journey. Ending with Abe's bus rattling along misty Dutch countryside with another collection of doomed carrion, this never falls into any real cliché. There is emotion, but never over-sentimentality; there is a good balance between story-telling and shock value; even the special effects are economical with CGI, preferring physical effects. Highly recommended.

If you are into slasher movies, you will enjoy this. It's not something that invents the (windmill) wheel anew, but it does have all the good gore effects and the jokes you'd expect this to have. It is predictable and some of the characters act in a weird way to say the least. They also serve a cliché purpose, if you boil them down to a shell. But that's just the way it is. The landscape and the country of origin give this an extra flavor. Best viewed with friends, this can be a lot of fun (if you enjoy people getting dismembered - as part of movies that is of course). Because the violence is over the top and the bad guy in this case too, there are no grounds in reality and you can just enjoy this for what it is

"The Windmill Massacre" is being re-titled, "The Windmill"...don't want to give too much away. The film opens showing us brief backgrounds of the various passengers on a tour bus line. One person is a Marine (Patrick Baladi) who went PTSD and killed a prostitute the night before. The rest of the passengers are a nervous lot who seem to have issues. The story centers on Jennifer (Charlotte Beaumont) an Aussie girl running away from her past. The tour bus breaks down in the part of Holland that doesn't have cell phone reception. It isn't long before our DVD cover slasher appears as the past catches up uniquely to each passenger. The film has some humor in it such as the photographer who asks "Where do I find these windmills?" The characters, while most were not developed, were interesting. Charlotte Beaumont played her role extremely well and could star in something a bit more relevant. In fact the entire cast did a good job, kudos to writer director Nick Jongerius...and I didn't see that last bit coming, expecting the film to end formula. Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity.

THE WINDMILL MASSACRE is nothing more than a low budget Dutch slasher movie set in and around a windmill being visited by a group of the usual diverse tourists. On arrival they find themselves stranded, but matters are to worsen when a mysterious masked maniac begins to butcher them one by one. I had high hopes for this film due to the style alone but sadly it turns out to be a typical waste of time, a thinly-plotted outing that's endlessly padded with long and boring flashbacks. It's the kind of film that tries to make mystery and mileage out of the back stories of the main characters but I found all of these bits just slowed the action down to a snail's pace. The acting isn't too bad, with a lot of British faces familiar from WATERLOO ROAD and THE OFFICE showing up, and Noah Taylor is always fun. The kills are pretty graphic but the director doesn't really seem to be interested in his killer all that much, and the climax is weak. Even though the film is fairly well shot, the material is so predictable that it becomes just another forgettable outing.

The new Nederhorror brought to us from the director, Nick Jongerius, who brought us Frankenstein's Army (2013). A horror that wasn't my cup of tea at all but this one was stated as a throw back to the slashers. To be honest, it does has elements of that particular genre but again, it's typical Nick to add some weird elements to the story. In fact, there's a lot of supernatural stuff going on so I really can't say that it is a slasher. There's a killer out but the elements to call it a slashers aren't in it, no point of view from the killer for example. But I do liked it more then the Frankenstein flick. The reason is that there are some gory shots here and there and the fact that the ending had a big surprise that I can't go deeper in or I would have to spoil. Due the gore added, it's worth picking up but the supernatural stuff wasn't my thing at all. I could compare it with Jason Voorhees in the latest Friday The 13th flicks were he's still coming back again and again, he really can't be killed and that being mixed with the killer from the Hatchet franchise. Not for everybody but entertaining enough to watch it with some friends. Gore 1,5/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 2,5/5 Comedy 0/5
