It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.

View MoreGreat example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.
View MoreThe tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
View MoreTHE CHOSEN is another sedately paced indie horror flick set in a family home. A little kid is ambushed by a demon while her family proceed to do their very best to save her. Sadly, this merely consists of endless small talk, lots of emoting, long conversations, and no actual horror content. As a result, it's entirely boring.
View MoreAnother flick that picks in on the genre that is so popular nowadays. The possession. Here we do have a daughter being possessed by a demon only to be exorcised by killing people with the same bloodline.So far so good and the acting was mediocre so on that part i didn't had any problems but it's the CGI effects used that made it a low profile flick. The demon appears in some kind of cloud to attack it's pray. The cloud is done CGI and isn't believable. To summon the demon they have to put a sign on the chosen body with blood. The problem is that the blood used didn't look like blood, way too red. There's nothing scary and the atmosphere build with the grandfather in his wheelchair is a bit lame. Still, it's watchable but once the end credits are running you are already forgotten this flick. Are you the chosen one to watch it?Gore 0/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 1/5 Story 1,5/5 Comedy 0/5
View MoreIt's been a while since I've seen a movie so terrible I quit part way through. I'd actually been doing a fairly good job of selecting half way decent movies. This time I struck out (that's what I get for going with Netflix selections for me).The plot of the movie is straight forward (I guess). Lilith, the first wife of Adam (as in Adam and Eve) is a child stealer because yada yada yada. That's pretty much what it sound like to me once the woman said Adam had a wife before Eve that was banished from Eden for not obeying Adam.At any rate: child possession... weak scare tactics... ominous music... poor acting... etcetera etcetera... I quit.
View MoreWow! Where do I begin with this mess? Let's begin with by saying 'The Chosen' is one of the worst films I've seen all year. The acting is so bad, I had to double check to make sure this wasn't a black comedy. Kian Lawley is so wooden, he seems lost at every turn of the film, as he goes around 'marking' people after being told to by a complete stranger minutes into the film that he must sacrifice six family members. I mean, she couldn't be a complete nut job, right? Barbara Goodson is probably the worst actor/actress in the film, and if you can get through her death scene - congratulations, it only gets worse. Mykayla Sohn, although a child actress, deserves some credit, as well - she only becomes tolerable when her dialogue comes to a screeching halt. If anyone wants to remake 'Troll 2,' I'm sure she'll make a nice addition to 'Nilbog.' The random Nun that pops up once in a while is the only tolerable character in the film, but I'm fairly certain she's not really supposed to be there - more than likely a mix up in sets. There's many more bad performances to be seen here (Mykayla Sohn started talking again,) but lets move on.The plot is also mind numbingly stupid, as this character just goes around marking people on the whim of a complete lunatic. One minute he's convinced she's crazy, and before the door closes we hear - 'Oh, well, if I wanted to mark someone...' Well, she did have an old looking book, so those people are usually legit, right? Bothered one moment by what he has to do, then seemingly enjoying it the next, he really doesn't know what the hell he's doing with his character. The entire film is a complete mess of random nonsense. You're not going to find many films worse than this in 2015.Random Ramblings of a Madman: Now that I've seen 'The Chosen,' I'm going to have to get six people to watch it, before I'm able to move on. I'm still deciding on the ''lucky'' six.
