The Love Witch : What a disappointment…

I have been dying to see this ever since the first trailer released. It looked absolutely outstanding. To say I was letdown is a big understatement. Unfortunately this is a severe case of style over substance, with the director making some misguided decisions along the way. First of all, this film is breathtakingly beautiful. Everything from the cinematography, the camerawork, and several shots look like they came right out of a 60s horror film. The style is perfect. Now for the substance. The first 30 minutes show the film has so much potential, then it absolutely becomes mediocre and monotonous. The story becomes repetitive and certain story elements completely take the horror out of the film. The forced campy moments do not work whatsoever. Subtle use of camp, or completely unintended camp are the best kind of camp. Here it just doesn't mesh well with the story at all. Many of the characters are so uninteresting that the film became a bore. Above all, this film has zero replay value. Absolutely none. I can't imagine ever wanting to watch this again. An absolute shame.

I agree! Someone I know claimed this was the best movie of 2016. I couldn't get through 20 minutes of it. The main character was completely insufferable. All of them, just unbearable. It actually pissed me off! Such style and even good direction completely wasted with the worst acting and writing. Ugh!
