Melissa L I thought this movie was great! I haven't any idea of the reason for the bad ratings. I recommend ignoring the low ratings and bad reviews and check it out! Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/24/24 Full Review kotori d First off the dialogue and writing is all over the place. Such as when the main character was yelling for their sibling. As if something bad was happening (even the music was giving this impression) but once they were upstairs. His urgency was gone and the tone of the scene change to him just casually asking for his sibling before deciding to go to his room instead of his siblings. As well as a moment when a character makes a suggestion but a second later will say don't do it. As if they forgot that they were the ones who suggested the idea. The story was also a bit confusing, it was hard to tell what was going on at times besides, two boys trying to survive a boogie man under one of their beds. Yes the boogie man lives only under one of the siblings beds. The characters are also very easily jumpy at the beginning of the film. The music also was misplaced a couple times, making some scenes far more dramatic than they should be. The set was also badly made as the placement of rooms...seem to change? Overall a mess of a movie. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/24/24 Full Review Purple F Trash 🗑. Nothing happens in an hour of the movie. It doesn't make sense at all. Waste of time. I want that hour of my life back. They talk to low. And the fx sounds are loud. Is trash. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/14/23 Full Review Elvis D Esta película de bajo presupuesto nos narra la clásica historia del monstruo escondido debajo de la cama, que era algo a lo que muchos niños solían temerle. Es una historia simple enfocándose en 2 hermanos teniendo que enfrentarse a esta variante clásica del Boogeyman y es algo más duro para el hermano mayor que ha pasado tiempo internado viviendo con ese horror. La película es al principio un drama enfocado en estos dos hermanos mezclado con esta clásica historia de terror del monstruo debajo de la cama. De cierta manera plasma bien ese típico terror infantil, pero la película en sí es un tema distinto. Las actuaciones son regulares y vaya que el padre de los 2 hermanos es demasiado duro por ser el típico padre que piensa que todo solo está en la imaginación de los hermanos. La banda sonora es decente y la producción también. En cuanto a la criatura, no está mal el diseño. El tercer acto es lo que compensa el ritmo que tiene la película al principio, pero se pueden notar que hay agujeros de guion. Además, no se explica muy bien claro como la madre de los hermanos murió en las garras del monstruo. Ni siquiera tiene mucho sentido la forma en que derrotan a la criatura. El concepto de la película es bastante bueno por como quiso materializar ese miedo infantil a los monstruos que se esconden en la oscuridad, pero hubiera sido mucho mejor que esta película hubiese sido hecha por un estudio más profesional. Mi calificación final para esta película es un 6/10. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 06/10/23 Full Review Audience Member Just awful, poor acting. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 02/02/23 Full Review Audience Member I watch mostly independent horror films, because when it comes to this genre, Hollywood is just too afraid to try anything different. When you see a horror film in theaters, it seems like all you get is either a slasher film with a ton of blood, a serial killer movie with lots of gore, or a supernatural thriller with nothing but jump scares. Real horror is supposed to be scary and is supposed to be something that sticks with you, but it's rare that a film can do that anymore, and Under The Bed is no exception. I can sum up this film by simply saying it's an hour of goosebumps, ten minutes of ridiculously over the top gore, and a whole five minutes of stranger things, thrown in at the end, for an attempt at originality. Not only was this a horror movie that I would call boring, but the cast was just plain annoying and written to be beyond stupid. If not for the writers love of the F word, combined with the last fifteen minutes of the film, Under The Bed could literally have been a Goosebump. Jonny Weston stars, and the future Project Almanac star, really was the only bright spot. This was one of his first films, but he at least has a clue as to how to live in the moment and build up the intensity. Weston's character had an interesting background and even a couple of funny one-liners, aside from that, this film has absolutely nothing. For those of us who love independent films, we are always taking a risk, knowing that a lot of times we're seeing newcomers. A lot of these films are something different, new, and refreshing, but other times they reek of inexperience and are completely lacking in originality. Under The Bed is yet another example of the latter. Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/17/23 Full Review Read all reviews
