Review of Purgatory House (2003) by Professor W — 29 Oct 2011

Summary:

A film about a teen girl who commits suicide and ends up living in purgatory.

The Good:

This film is very ambitious, and pretty good being that it was written by a 14 year old. It is definitely not your average same old boring movie, it breaks the mold and is surprisingly original. For being very low budget the acting is decent (with exceptions), story is solid, and though the soundtrack is completely just popular songs performed by unknown cover-bands, it still sounds good.

The Bad:

I didn't really like the visual style of the film. I think it probably would have been better if I streamed in HD but I do think it was better than having no visual style at all.

Ratings:

Acting: 6/10.

Story: 6/10.

Originality: 7/10.

Soundtrack: 7/10.

Characters: 4/10.

Overall: 6/10.
