Polaroid

I understand the importance of the horror genre in the movie industry. It's an entry point for directors and actors to move up the ladder. But that is also the reason why this genre is littered with so many subpar films.

Acting is so bad and pathetic Story barley makes sense The overall reason why it kills is dreadful and How you can hurt someone thru the picture is dumb and pointless

Took a chance on this one and I was pleasantly surprised. The acting was well done and the storyline was decent with a nice twist which always helps. Special effects/CGI was well done in some places but really lacked on occasion. It’s worth a bag of popcorn and a sit down.

I've watched this movie twice (years apart) & enjoyed it both times, I think it's underrated as far as cheap thrills/spooky story movies go. A Haunted Camera is a unique premise & the photographs being "clues" & having powers connected to the people in them is cool! A con is I wish certain people got more screen time & the scares could've been amped up a little.

Somehow I made it almost five minutes before I had to wash my eyes out with soap. Can anyone make a horror movie where the characters act like an actual sentient being? Gawd, these B flicks are worse than formula, they're formula with half of the ingredients missing. I wish there were negative stars available to rate garbage like this.

Polaroid (2019), 3/5 stars rating. Hot Babes like Madelaine Petsch she was like Marione Crane or Tina Gray. Katie Steven, Priscilla Quintana and Kathryn Prescott the protagonist written like the shy Alice Johnson from A Nightmare on Elm Street 4 The Dream Master (1988) she which pictures of her friends put in the mirror. There is one of the group who The Creature murders his girlfriend and blames the protagonist like Mackinley from Final Destination 3 (2006) and dies in jail like Rod Lane from A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). The plot was like A Nightmare on Elm Street with a killer who turns supernatural to take revenge after the death. It also resembles Ouija (2014) where Lin Shaye an old woman tricks the protagonist or Truth or Dare (2018) by Lucy Hale. The Creature was like Freddy Krueger, the murderous father, the Sheriff played by Mitch Pilegi knows the serial killer as Lieutenant Donald Thompson from A Nightmare on Elm Street (1984). In the end, the protagonist Bird saves the day at the cost of her ring and pinky fingers as a yakuza retribución or give in sacrifice like the films Hostel (2005), Sinister 2 (2015) and Resident Evil: The Final Chapter (2016) where the protagonists survive but lose their ring and pinky fingers.

I loved this movie, yall tripping if you think is trash ... LOVED IT

Friday the 13th was a TV show that ran from the late 80s to the early 90s, it was about the staff of Antique store that went out to collect haunted items that were dangerous in the world. Polaroid to me was like watching an extended episode of that series play out; now I for one enjoyed that series as a kid (probably shouldn't have been watching it as a kid) but though I like the idea of Polaroid, an old camera that is haunted it don't think they was enough meat to this story to make it an entire film. The pacing is quite slow and at times the film drags, it doesn't help that for being a creature feature, you never get a good look at the creature, it's a pretty dark film literally. The cast is sold and likable, you even have a drop in from Assistant Director Skinner (Mitch Pileggi) from the X-Files but it's not enough by that time in the film to save it. I thought Polaroid was okay, it could have benefited from some quicker pacing and actually showing what happens to the victims of the creature aside from a quick cutaway. I don't I would re-watch this film and if it's between Polaroid and and watching another Horror film I would probably watch something else.
