Dana K I’m a horror fan all the way but with this movie I just didn’t get it. Seemed to be just one injury torture after another with no real “ heart” to the movie..if there was a point to one of Lolas victims being the guy in the road that made Brent run into the tree, or any point to Jamie and Mias date then I missed it…I don’t even get why all the guys were zombies… Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 11/05/24 Full Review Topher R I thought this was done excellent! Great timing, creepy story, good acting, and kept me interested right to the end. I do recommend to any fan of thriller/horror/suspense genres. Rated 4.5/5 Stars •  Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 10/29/24 Full Review Yash B "The Loved Ones" sets the stage early on and is a deranged ride from that moment forward. The movie is disgusting and brutal and I found myself consistently uncomfortable and tense. There is a subplot that I felt confused by for most of it but then realized what the purpose was in the final act. The movie is a lot for me as this type of horror is not my first choice, but I think it is effective in what it is trying to do. Overall, it is genuinely pretty scary to imagine being in this sort of situation, and an impressive movie that does all of the necessary tasks in just over 80 minutes. Rated 3.5/5 Stars •  Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Audience Member I mean it looks great (on blu ray) well shot and the score is decent. I also can't fault the acting but ultimately it's a nothing burger of violence and mild titillation; if you're a teenage boy I can recommend this film, however I'm not sure there is much there for adults. The B story involving a kid who seems to have stepped out of the 70s (I think he's wearing flares) and the goth hot chick serves absoltuley no purpose other than to pad the film out to get it to an acceptable running time for a feature film. John Brumpton who plays "Daddy" played a similarly violent nut job "Poppy" in a film made around the same time 2007's "Storm Warning" that film is equally as violent as this one however it actually has a plot. I would recommend watching that instead as while also not a masterpiece it is good fun and not as light on plot as "The Loved ones" Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/14/24 Full Review Jack G This film eviscerates movies like Scream a new one. Very underappreciated film and has to be up there among the best horror films of the aughts. Rated 5/5 Stars •  Rated 5 out of 5 stars 09/21/24 Full Review Darragh W Xavier Samuel and Robin McLeavy's performance mixed with the gritt and realism makes this movie an absolute masterpiece! One of the best horror movies ever, if not the best of all time, better than 'THE BABADOOK' (also an Australian horror, but way more famous)!
