Dave C Sep 19 Absolutely AWFUL. Movie likes itself enough for everyone. How is this highly critically rated? Boring dumb loop. Faux depth about toxic relationships and cheating with a friend's boyfriend. Drags on forever. AWFUL!!!! AVOID!!!! See more Francesco M Jul 9 Half star just because I couldn't give 0. The movie is cheap and it shows. The ghost' s make up looks like is done by a 4 years old. The story boring and predictable, the timeline in which the movie happens,is so very confusing most of the times. Some sub plots gets open and never concluded. TERRIBLE. See more MB C @MB.Cinema Jun 29 The Dead Thing is a slow-burning psychological horror that explores the terrifying emptiness of modern connection. Through muted tones, quiet performances, and eerie stillness, the film dives deep into themes of digital intimacy, emotional vacancy, and obsession.....Blu Hunt delivers a hauntingly restrained performance, while Ben Smith-Petersen shifts from charm to menace with unsettling ease. Though its pacing may test patience and some subplots feel underdeveloped, the film succeeds in crafting an atmosphere of quiet dread. Not every scare needs a scream—sometimes, silence is the loudest sound...... See more Jeffrey P Jun 19 Starts lame, gets lamer, the ending is the lamest. It’s relationship horror which, when it deals with the supernatural, has two speeds - slow and dead. This, admittedly, is dead. There’s no conflict and only a sense of rising action, both of which mean there’s no resolution. The camera play and acting are okay use of colors, shapes, letters, and numbers but it's still not quite on the level of One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish. See more Lance B Apr 15 The biggest issue is its sluggish pacing. The story meanders through Alex's repetitive daily life and her string of one-night stands, taking far too long to establish its central conflict. By the time the supernatural elements come into play, the momentum has already been drained, making the climax feel anticlimactic and unsatisfying. the visuals are interesting at times, but often feel like distractions rather than enhancements to the story. See more Hugo S Apr 2 A young woman is trapped inside a cycle of love affairs facilitated by an online dating app. The routine takes a dark turn when one of her affairs is a ghost with whom she becomes obcessed. "Dead Thing" tackles toxic relationships and codependency, exploring modern love and the technology used to find it. The movie delivers a sharp critique of the dating culture in the 21st century. A culture dominated by instant communication and instant gratification. Despite the relevance of its message, the plot feels lost in its repetitive love encounters that only serve the purpose of validating the social commentary. The interesting premise vanishes as quickly as a specter. See more Read all reviews
