Brent McKnight The Last Thing I See There are consistent, legitimate laughs throughout, and, especially as the movie builds and progresses towards the climax, some solid ghost story action in the midst of all the humor. Rated: B Jul 19, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Leonard H Sucks big style. Only fit for children under 10 years old. Crap acting and about as funny as a broken leg. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 10/02/24 Full Review Jonathan M abdolute dogshit, terrible acting, retarded storyline, not even funny on an ironic level don't waste your time. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/07/23 Full Review Audience Member It was an unexpected gem of a movie. Not too scary, but very funny. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member I honestly can't believe I missed out on this one for so long. Simple premise with a lot of slapstick fun; one of those rare films where you see people reacting just the way you thought they would to encountering the 'haunted house'. The explanation seemed a little shoe-horned but otherwise, it was a hoot. Make sure you watch the credits all the way through! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/22/23 Full Review Audience Member low budget fantastic movie Rated 5 out of 5 stars 11/29/20 Full Review the s At first glance, movies like this are a dime a dozen on Amazon prime. Literally. At this point for every good movie Amazon hosts, there are literally 500 not worth your time. So anytime I blindly stream a movie, I always keep that in mind. And you can usually tell in the first 10 minutes whether those involved are good at what they do or just some people with rich parents and want to be "famous" so they make their own "movie." But this wasn't like that at all. It was really good and unique. Kinda had an 80s comedy feel to it. Production-wise it was bare bones as you get but that actually helped with the 80s feel. Those dime a dozen movies I mentioned earlier tend to have very dramatic cinematography because even though the writing and acting are horrible in those, there are apparently a lot of talented filmers in Hollywood looking for work. But back to this one: the first hour is downright hilarious at some points. And they successfully figured out the subtleties of mixing horror with comedy. Which is rare to find these days. Acting is good all around honestly. There are some seriously funny scenes and between the writing and acting, they pull it off incredibly well. The movie suffers when the plot turns from the house to a "possession" and the movie takes a turn for the worse. It's at its best when the 2 main characters share scenes and interacting. The first scene where the car keys are left inside is serious comedy gold. But as mentioned, the plot takes a weird turn and the movie suffers as a result. Not so much that it ruins the movie, just enough to be disappointing as you get wrapped up in one direction as it turns to another completely. But it was working and working well before that. Still a good movie, still worth your time. And to be honest, If you can find an Amazon prime movie that isn't absolute garbage at this point, by all means watch it. Even against the big studios and big name actors, this holds up as a solid 3.5/5 stars. Had the plot kind of stayed the path, if could have easily been a 4 or 4.5. Read my other reviews. I basically hate every movie and series these days for wasting my time. But not this one. This one is well worth the investment. Kudos, small group of people I've never heard of. There was a lot of talent compressed into this one movie. Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 03/30/23 Full Review Read all reviews
