The Rake (2018) Reviews
Where is the story?
Some nice gore effects and interesting creature (nice breasts , shame about the face lol). Problem is there is no story to back up the CGI/Special effects and the acting is purest of pants - where did the creature come from, why is it there - duh!!! Without any details its just another formulaeic stalk and slash creature feature movie. Oh and the end of the movie is just awwwwwful!!!!! When are they going to make a decent horror like with a story and some scares and give us a break from this toxic tosh! It can be done you know; Sam Raimi proved it with DRAG ME TO HELL - We need more Sam Raimi's and less Tom Tits! Stupid, stupid, stupid.
Wrong Medium
I feel like there are occasional horror films that might make better prose stories than films. "The Rake" is one of them. Character relationships seem important, and the performances are actually pretty decent, but those relationships aren't well developed or really make much sense in the film itself. The deeper psychological issues the film wants to work with don't quite land because the film can't really get beyond the surface. What occurs is a fair to midland character drama with seemingly random additions (again, a novel would allow background to be explored) and a difficult pace. A fairly lackluster ending doesn't do it any good, either: a last showdown between protagonist and monster just gets shunted, which really seems like the filmmakers ran out of money. It's not bad, just...unfinished.
What the heck did I just watch?!
Absolutely horrible! Where the hell is the storyline? This film doesn't explain anything at all. Aside from the gore and cgi which is okay....everything about this film is just garbage! It makes asbolutely no sense at all! Just another pathetic attempt that basically became yet another failed slasher! Don't watch this whatever you do! Complete waste of time!
The nightmares never stopped.
The Rake is a Wendigo, however titles with "Wendigo" in them don't do well and who doesn't love a rake killer? The film opens with Ben and Ashley as children watching her parents get killed by one of these things. As adults they are messed up, especially Ashley (Shenae Grimes-Beech). A group of people get to together at the cabin-in-the -woods....with cell phone reception. Ashley starts to see things and Andrew (Joey Bicicchi) has cuticle issues. The film does build character but runs short on suspense. The killings take place in one quick lump. At 1:14 it could have added some horror build up. Guide: F-word. Near sex. brief nudity.
Low Budget Monster/Slasher
I enjoyed it. Not Oscar material obviously but from a guys who enjoys B monster/slasher style films I thought this was fun.
