Caution Spoilers

A witty ensemble comedy-thriller. The excellent cast plays it completely straight, while director Koller ladles on the horror tropes. Writer Kofoed has a keen ear for 30-something reunions and their underlying bile.

Rated: 3/5

The Abstract

It's a film that is shot simplistic with still a pretty unnerving plot.

Rated: 4/5

30 Miles from Nowhere tends to suffer from issues common in tiny-budgeted horror films.

Leads to a surprising climax, that's smartly done and quite unexpected.

When you see enough movies you get into the rhythm of certain genres and it's often easy to guess what's going to happen next. I can honestly say that director Caitlin Koller's 30 Miles From Nowhere was a total surprise

Rated: 3.5/5

Uneventful build-up that takes far too long in a premise that is not good with no pay-off.

This is probably the worst movie I’ve ever seen. Wish I could give it zero stars. Horrible writing. Holes everywhere.

One of the worst movies I have seen. Stupid plot. Terrible acting. Terrible. Nothing scary about this. This is one of those times I wonder about the other ratings here. It was almost like it was trying to be a spoof, but it was not. Did I mention the terrible acting?

Reasonably well put together with some good but also some decidedly poor performances and uneven direction. The premise and its inevitable twist could be interesting and sort of fun if you don't figure it out almost immediately, which will be difficult given its ultimate predictability. Even with its flaws, I enjoyed it all the way until the end, at which point it completely fell apart beyond any possibility of suspension of disbelief, and left me feeling like my investment of time had been completely wasted. The end could have been used to tie up the plot and make some interesting statements. Instead, and although I think the filmmakers believe they're either making some sort of social commentary or leaving us wondering whether it's actually "the end," it makes no sense whatsoever and will likely only frustrate genre fans.

Rated 2 out of 5 stars

Good psycho thriller, slow moving for a long time and somewhat predictable. Still, except for a couple of absurdities it works.
