The Unholy(2021)

God, no. That'#39;s so awful, messy and hilariously bad at times. I'#39;m surprised this film isn'#39;t from Blumhouse, it has the same energy. This religious horror film felt so generic and slow. It doesn'#39;t go anywhere interesting and it relies entirely on cheap jumpscares with annoyingly loud noises. The writing is bad and I can'#39;t forget that terrible CGI! I just couldn'#39;t take this seriously. Most of the characters are stupid or soulless. Also why they keep changing their accents throughout? For a horror film, pretty sure it'#39;s below average. The visuals and cinematography are the only good things regarding this film, unfortunately that'#39;s not enough to save this crap.

Not the beat horror movie by any stretch but it wasn’t GOD awful. It’s funny that Jeffrey Dean Morgan starred in this movie cause it reminded me of a episode from Supernatural. Where people believed that a blind preacher had the ability to heal people but it was actually a reaper trading a life for a life. That episode was better than this movie

As a big horror fan, and also a BIG Jeffrey Dean Morgan fan, i was very very disappointed with this movie! Soooo many plot holes, sooo much exposition... I was pissed :D Some caracters are very smart and put one-and-one together like immediately, and the other ones are just stupid as f***! xD From the first scene to the last one - you know how this movie will end. Some decent and some lame jump scares... just... I mean you can watch this movie if you want, but i cant recomend it... 4/10

im not sure why they decided to use poor quality CGI over practical effects and excessive amounts of overly loud jump scares - made it feel cheap and lazy and, another movie with Cary Elwes attempting a terrible accent

This movie is terrible, there is simply nothing of value to be found here. Every single aspect of this movie is bad; The paint by numbers plot that does nothing new or have anything interesting to say. Jeffrey Dean Morgans flat, phoned-in performance. Cary Elwes horrific Bostonian accent. The amateur editing, camera work and composition all have an air of film student about them. Everything is poor, just so so poor. Skip this, use the 100 minutes for something else.

Maybe I was prejudiced by the low rating and all the bad comments but I never got into this movie. The premise is interesting but the writing, acting, directing, well, the whole Shabang is bad. It'#39;s really nothing but cheap scare.

Well! Well! Well! I think the other commentators said it all nothing to add from me. Hollywood STOP MAKING HORROR FILMS! PLEASE STOP!!

An unholy mess. This horror movie commits the biggest cinematic sin of all…it’s boring!

+schmoogie

This was slightly better than expected. I actually found it mildly entertaining. However, there'#39;s not really anything new or unique to this movie. How I rate: 1-3 :heart: = seriously! don'#39;t waste your time 4-6 :heart: = you may or may not enjoy this 7-8 :heart: = I expect you will like this too 9-10 :heart: = movies and TV shows I really love!

(Un)Holy shit. PG-13 horror is nothing but a bad mix of jump scares and clichés.

The only thing '#34;Unholy'#34; about this movie is the script.

tiny_thanos

The screenplay writer has a career in children'#39;s movies and it shows. If it weren'#39;t comically bad in some parts, it would be entirely uninteresting.

Hi, anyone who'#39;s watched it, is it worth the time?

I like Morgan and he did well with the material here. Didn'#39;t hate this like many reviewers did, it was adequate for the genre and had some good moments. Parts were very predictable but that'#39;s typical for these types of flicks. would have been nice for it to elevate higher, but it'#39;s much better than the 2-3s it'#39;s getting. 5.7.

This movie was bad. There was no saving this with the story, or the cgi. The acting was ok, even tho it had major known actors, including a Portuguese actor. I was constantly thinking that this movie was a lousy spin off of Supernatural, and I was almost praying that Dean came bursting through the door to end their (and the viewer’s) suffering.

Predictable and you kinda didn’t care what happened to the characters cause they were awful

miguelreina

When in a horror film the director warns the viewer before each scare (the positioning of the camera, the vibration of the image ...) it means that something is wrong. It mentions apparitions of the Virgin in Lourdes, Fatima and Medjugorje. And it needs a miracle for such an insolvent script to arouse interest. Being generous, you can extract some reflection on the use of the apparitions as an object of manipulation.

Not the least bit scary

Piss poor CGI, low rent compositing. LOUD NOISES! to make jump scare jumpy. This should have come out in the 60s alongside '#39;witchfinder general'#39; and *the devil'#39;s sisters (or something like that) This is a Sunday dinner time movie.

Not a bad movie but not super scary. Jeffery Dean was good….. I’d give it a watch.

gunsgirl

It wasn’t scary…. But not the worst either…..

Simple recipe for a horror movie, but with a moral. ;) If we do not expect an ambitious film with a bottom line, this one will not surprise us negatively.
