7 Below (2012)
3/10
An unbelievably dismal horror film
22 February 2013
Warning: Spoilers
In "Seven Below," a boy kills his entire family and then disappears. Decades later, a handful of travellers go to the house where the murders took place and mysteriously they start dying off like flies. I have no idea why anyone would want to make a film like this. The acting is sub-par, suggesting that the actors rushed for the money and happily sacrificed their reputations for this trash. The only actor, in fact, who attempts anything fresh is Ving Rhames, but unfortunately he is hamstrung by a terrible script. The plot mechanisms are completely ridiculous and not in a good way. Perhaps the most ridiculous and implausible plot twist of them all (this movie is so bad that I have no scruples about giving way the ending) is that one of the good guys decides to marry the girl (played by a Brazilian model who clearly has no idea how to act and has spent more time looking pretty than improving her mind) who killed his brother and his professor. Yeah I can see that happening... not. Then at the very end, it is suggested that the girl is going to kill her husband who (if the plot had any sanity of all) would have had the good sense to have her interned in an insane asylum. No surprises there. 2.5/10
