Last Kind Words

"Last Kind Words" is sort of an old-fashioned ghost story, set in a poor rural area of Kentucky. It's rather refreshing as it's mostly just normal, regular people, not the usual pretty-boy & pretty-girl cast with big SUV's, and not a single cell phone (with no reception) to be found. A teenage boy moves with his parents to live in a trailer & do work for the father's childhood friend after the father loses his factory job. Young Eli discovers a young girl named Amanda on the property, and she is as mysterious as she is beautiful. Now, the father's childhood friend, Waylon, certainly knows who Amanda is and warns Eli to keep away, but things are not good with Eli & his dad, so naturally Eli is drawn to find something else to do with his time than hang around his folks. And of course, Amanda is not what she seems but neither is Waylon.There are a few plot holes but nothing too serious, and the locations are appropriately eerie without too much effort. This is not a fast-paced film so it would not be appreciated by the slice & dice crowd, but anyone that enjoys a decent ghost story will appreciate it. Worth seeing. 4 out of 5 stars.

I didnt enjoy this movie because it is said to be a horror flick and it is absolutely NOT. I chose it also because of Brad Dourif who has always been a favorite of mine and while he did an excellent job (as always) this story line just made me want for more.. more blood.. more gore.. more scare.. pretty much more anything.However, if you are a die hard horror fan and want to ease someone into watching horror films with you.. this is an excellent one to begin with.. just be warned, you will get very bored.

I don't know that this is a 5-star movie for everyone. The movie moves very slow. However, I particularly enjoyed the pace of the movie. They told this story right. It's not terrifying or gory or anything. This is a movie I will watch with my wife and she will like it for the romance and the drama. But it isn't overdone so it worked well for me. The only complaint I could share is, that at times the background music is a bit overwhelming and makes it hard to understand the dialog. The atmosphere didn't need that much help from the music to make it work.

It's not great, but was engaging enough to keep me curious to know how it ends, especially since I actually paid for the rental. Unfortunately, I was not thrilled with the plot , so the ending didn't thrill me either.There are no real scares and it is hardly a horror/thriller, just a laid back ghost story. A few plot holes, it definitely lacked attention to detail in a particular scene and that just left me dumbfounded ( I would elaborate, but then this would become a spoiler ). A bit dull overall, so if you are looking for psychological stimulation keep looking. Should be a free movie on NF or Prime sometime soon so you might consider watching it then.

Another spooky movie to add t o my collection. Not much noticeability in the way of acting but, the effort was commendable,however, did enjoy it overall.

Really was 3.5

GOOD FOR A CAMPFIRE GHOST STORY

I spent 3-1/2 years in Kentucky one day. This feels like it. On and on and on and on... In theory, this could have dragged more, but in practice it would have taken a deliberate effort. No atmosphere to speak of outside of languid Southern boredom, and damn near a complete lack of action. What little plot there is advances slower than social progress in Dixie, so I guess in that respect it fits. I kept watching, however, hoping for a pay-off. Should have known better. $3.99 and 90 minutes wasted.

Sehr schoener "strange" movie.So ein ghost movie.Und das schoene bild mit den welder,sehr schoen.Ich will die story nicht feratten.Aber der film ist gut.Kan man ruhig anschauen.

Mir fehlen eigentlich die Worte.Dem Cover und der Inhaltsbeschreibung nach erwartet man sich einen wirklich guten Film.Stattdessen passiert eigentlich überhaupt nichts.Was soll der Film???Kinder erschrecken?Die würden sich beim Anschauen auch langweilen
