Dave P I signed up here simply to post a review. DO NOT believe any review that says things like "blew me away", "gripping" or "riveting", because these reviewers have either worked on the film or are related to the producers. From the opening scene, you know this is going to be bad, and after enduring 30 minutes, I bailed. Bad acting all around, pointless script, story that goes nowhere, teenage-level SFX. You name it, if you think "bad", it's all here. I watch a lot of lousy movies (mostly horror) but this sinks to the lowest level from the start. It amazes me that movies like this get funded in the first place. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 04/16/25 Full Review Mary B watched yesterday on Google TV...mix of the Shining and Children of the Corn. There needs to be a Candlewood 2 to tie up loose ends..he is the caretaker but the family said they were there to live full time...does that mean they own or rent? If they own, why have a property care taker....if he is a caretaker why isn't he mowing and chopping wood?Ppl obviously are missing, no one comes by to check...police, FBI etc...obviously there is something going on. The outside communities do not miss the ppl that are missing??? serial killings...Too many holes in storyline...good attempt. Knew from the start they were being drugged via the water. The neighbor wanted milk, no coffee or tea??? Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 03/31/25 Full Review Patrick B Horrendously bad. Terribly acted, written and shot. No redeeming qualities. The interesting thing about the reviews is the chasm between the ratings. There are people raving about the movie, and then people shocked by how bad the movie is. Guess who the people are who are raving about it? I’ll give you three guesses. Let’s put it this way. This movie is about a family that buys a house, packs up and moves to the house — without ever having seen the house. No, seriously, that’s the premise. You know how everyone does that — just buys a house they’ve never visited or seen? That’s the kind of writing we’re talking about here, like a movie written by a 12 year old. The five star reviews completely crack me up. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 03/22/25 Full Review Mark S I have to say, Candlewood completely blew me away. As a horror fan, I’ve seen my fair share of supernatural films, but this one felt so different. It wasn't just the eerie setting of New Milford that drew me in – it was how the town’s legends were woven into the characters' personal stories. Lisann Valentin's performance was outstanding; she brought such depth to her character that I genuinely cared about her, even amidst the chaos. The way the film built suspense had me hooked from the first scene. This isn’t just another horror film, it’s a carefully crafted experience that lingers long after the credits roll." Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 03/19/25 Full Review Claire Elizabeth H I literally never write reviews and can usually find something good to write about a movie but this was god awful and I’m pissed I paid 5 dollars to rent it Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 03/16/25 Full Review Ed U A Must Watch, Thriller....
