tripped out sci fi horror
Almost didn't see this one because of the horrible reviews I kept seeing. After watching I realized that I was entertained. The nay-sayers on this one either don't like horror, or don't like sci-fi. If your one who obsessively scans for plot holes, and constantly pointing out the this would never happen in real life, etc, etc, you probably shouldn't watch this movie. In fact you probably shouldn't watch most movies because none of them will ever stand up to your standards as movie are in fact not real life at all. Final thoughts: if you're into tripped out sci fi horror you might like this movie. Lovely yours, Simeon
I'm giving the 6th positive review. :D
This movie is more of an acquired taste, than anything else. You'll either love it for its refreshing take on this genre or hate it for making you feel left out. The other reviews pretty much covered everything, so I'll make this short and simple: The story requires your undivided attention. If you miss a second of it, you may not "get" what it's all about. The actors are actually very good. Surprised me, really, in their intensity. Their emotions were almost palpable. My only "complaint" is that the "entity" itself had too little a role, and its appearance too subtle for cinematic effect. Nevertheless, it's a movie I would recommend.
The real terror in The Corridor is more subversive than the obvious antagonist...
The Corridor is an interesting film as horror films go. Even as a small film it is undeniable that it is a creature of ambitious efforts. Fortunately, these efforts pay off to the tune of delivering the audience a disturbing and rare portrayal of what happens when the extraordinary brings out the unusual and ultimately the worst in a group of friends whose circle is dangerously close to splintering from very real pressures of the earthly kind. The Corridor follows 5 men whose boyhood friendships have persisted into adulthood and who individually are still struggling to find their places in the grown-up world. Their roles are further questioned when a member of the group, Tyler (Stephen Chambers), loses his mother under suspicious circumstances that leaves Chris (David Patrick Fleming) injured and questioning the sanity of his life-long friend. In an effort to reconnect and help Tyler in the emotionally grueling process of laying his mother's ashes to rest, the 5 men decide to plan a boys' retreat to the cabin they spent so much time in in their youths. Tyler, grappling with his dementia (an aftershock of the ordeal with his mother) makes a discovery in the woods that will threaten the sanity and the lives of the rest of the group. The real terror in The Corridor is more subversive than the obvious antagonist and the depth of the film's themes skirt on the edges of such cult favorites as Fight Club, Donnie Darko and some of Lynch's more surreal efforts. The threat isn't so much the enigmatic force in the woods as it is the enigma that is silently killing the group from the inside: Who are you when you lack purpose? How do we define ourselves in a world that denies us definition? It is the the corridor itself that empowers the group and seems only to magnify their own personal problems into full blown psychosis. Although this might seem a little heady for the casual watcher, TC speaks to those of us who saw our role models revealed as villains, saw our fathers too humanized to remain out heroes and ultimately left us in a world without warrior poets looking forward to jobs we despise and positions in life that rarely treat us with any real moments of fulfillment. It is this alarmingly emotional character study of the group that elevates the Corridor to a film that actually surpasses its intent. For the horror fan The Corridor delivers some truly disturbing scenes of torture and madness driven degradation that sticks with you long after the credits begin to roll. It is in these moments that we see a group of actors that have struck their rhythm and deliver on all levels of the script, from the intense loss and longing to the stark insanity that characterizes the latter half of the picture. Director Evan Kelly has hit the ground running and I for one am eagerly looking forward to his next effort. Highly recommended.
A Weekend Get together Goes Terribly Wrong When There is an Encounter With an Unexplained Light Entity
What would happen if the switch that keeps us from bludgeoning the next passerby we encounter on the street was turned off and we reverted to a more feral existence albeit still convinced we were of a rational mind? In Evan Kelly's The Corridor, 5 friends encounter an entity, a something? and what begins as a Big Chill type get together becomes an unstoppable nightmare all playing out in the banal everyday-ism of a small cabin in the woods.The Corridor is an intelligent film that asks its audience to engage with it rather than be spoon fed a sequence of Peckinpahesque scenes of gratuitous violence. Sure there's some blood, but you may find yourself realizing after you see this movie that you imagined some of the more violent scenes --thats because Kelly seems to have attempted to stay clear of a blood fest type showing and opted instead for a more nuanced approach -- sometimes you can imagine a more horrific picture if you are handed just a few pieces of the puzzle. The film introduces us to 5 friends who have shared a tragic experience and have come together to heal old wounds though each of them comes with their own personal baggage. When they encounter the Corridor, the baggage they carry becomes the fuel that funnels the feral. Kelly heightens the suspense of emotions slowly going out of control until we reach the point of no return and events careen to their tragic conclusion. If I have a criticism, it may be in wanting to have seen the escalation more drawn out and crafted but this is a film that has come together well beyond it's meagre budget and both Kelly and his DP, Chris Ball have worked marvellously in a cramped cabin set for well over half of the movie moving the characters about and toward their eventual fate so perhaps that type of wishful thinking comes with a movie of much greater budgetary resources and screen time. If you liked the pacing and visual appeal of Let the Right One In, you will want to see this picture.
An effective and ambitious indie thriller
Going in blind to a movie like this can really only heighten the experience. I knew about the film prior to seeking it out and while not exactly what I was expecting I have to say I felt pleasantly surprised by what I actually saw. Watching the first half of the film there was no way I could have sat with a straight face and tell you how this was going to end. THE CORRIDOR is anchored by not one, not two, not three, not four but five strong performances and a script full of shocks and surprises that range from disturbing to darkly comedic. Some movies portray madness through watching a single character lose it from beginning to end, where as this film attempts to make the audience go mad right along with the characters. I won't lie, it takes patience to stay on board to the end but in the case of THE CORRIDOR patience pays off in the end. Full Review @ http://www.moviesonline.ca/ 2012/04/corridor-movie-review/
