Review of Lovely Molly (2011) by Joe J — 14 Oct 2012
Molly (Gretchen Lodge) and her new husband Tim (Johnny Lewis) have moved into Molly's childhood home, and almost immediately strange occurrences begin to occur, and Molly fears that the ghost of her abusive dead father is haunting her, while Tim is worried that Molly has gone back to her old drugged out ways.
As she begins to show signs of changing, everyone around her becomes worried about her and don't know how to help her. Meanwhile, she slowly becomes one with the evil that lives inside the house.
When the previews came out for this film, it said this was a revolutionary journey into a new brand of horror, with amazing performances and an ending that will leave you breathless. As it is with these low budget horror flicks, the previews were highly misleading. Think "Paranormal Activity" without the shaky cam and that's "Lovely Molly.".
The acting was slightly better than normal, and the setting was eerie overall, but other than that there wasn't much to be afraid of.
On a side note, it was weird watching Johnny Lewis in this film, especially after his real life death and supposed murder of his elderly landlord before he committed suicide. Seeing him in this film gave a dark insight into his possible decent into true evil.
