I stumbled upon the 1989 Australian horror drama "Celia" here in 2021 by random chance. I had never even heard about the movie prior to picking it up as the movie's cover was interesting. The synopsis sounded interesting as well, so of course I opted to sit down and watch what writer and director Ann Turner had to offer with "Celia".
Turns out that Ann Turner didn't really offer much of anything that provided me with entertainment. In fact, "Celia" was so slow paced and uneventful that I gave up on it not even halfway through. Seriously, nothing had happened aside from the girl Celia milling aimlessly about and getting a rabbit.
Talk about a swing and a miss. For a horror movie then writer and director Ann Turner failed to deliver anything worthwhile with "Celia". The movie was not scary at all, well, unless you consider an insanely slow paced narrative of virtually nothing as scary, then by all means...
The acting performances in "Celia" were adequate, I suppose. I wasn't really paying much attention, if I have to be honest, because the snail paced narrative just didn't appeal to me the least.
Sadly the movie's cover was actually the best thing about this 1989 ordeal titled "Celia".
I am rating "Celia" a one out of ten stars, as this movie fell completely short of being watchable or entertaining. And as for it being a horror movie? Nay...
