Delirium (2015) Reviews

• wtf?!

  Well, looks like I have the ignominious and unfortunate distinction of being the first victim to review this one. Second worst movie I have EVER seen. A hot, stinking, holy mess. Atrocious acting and a thoroughly incomprehensible "plot." Just wasted $4.99 watching this on On Demand. Wish I could get my money back from my cable company. So bad, it's got to be seen to be believed. But then you'd waste good money like I just did. I give this a negative number of stars; yes, it was really that bad. Avoid at all costs.

• Why did I waste my time?

  I've given it 2 out of 10, even then I feel I'm being generous. This movie was on sky store and I didn't feel up for reading reviews so purchased it (unfortunately with the DVD too as it was the only option) both myself and my husband are big horror fans and we do enjoy thrillers too so it doesn't have to be very scary to win us over. However this movie failed on just about every expectation we had. 1. the movie is all over the place and is very hard to follow. This makes it hard to care about the characters. 2. the acting is really bad, especially by the step dad and mother. 3. the whole film feels forced and unnatural. The only up sides are that it had a plot twist (which is always a nice surprise) and the sets were well made. I would strongly suggest spend your time and money on some other better movie as this one was just awful.

• I have to agree with user lauralmhs and wish I'd read their review

  Yep, I have to agree with user lauralmhs and wish I'd read their review first before watching this complete dross. . So confusing and I honestly didn't know WTF happened. . It was like bits of films taken from different films and mixed together to get the audience to try and work out WTF was happening. . I don't know what the timeline was and how it was intended to make sense and whether a year had gone by or what and also, who died and how or why - maybe it's just me but at the end of the film I was thinking "What the hell did I just watch? Is this film going to be some sort of cult film or is it going to set the standards of the worst and cr*p*iest (horror???) film ever?" Well, I think the latter (and I'm not trying to be funny) and it actually excelled in that regard. . If this review helps in some way to save just one potential viewer from watching this film, then I am happy!

• Just got through watching this and I am still trying to figure some stuff out...

  *****POSSIBLE SPOILERS**** I don't know how I feel about this movie at the moment. It isn't your typical horror movie. There really aren't any jump scares. The horror is actually how deep you have to go into a crazy person's mind to get your answers. I for one think that psychological thrillers are better than regular blood and guts. They make you think. I gave this movie 5☆s because of the fact that it isn't your typical horror flick. Also,I kind of enjoyed the story line and I felt that the actor playing the lead did a really good job. Sure, the other actors could've stepped it up a little. All in all, I would definitely watch it again. Like when nothing else is on, or I am in the mood for this type of movie. Good Job!

• Confusing Pile Of Rubbish

  When I first watched this movie I actually thought someone had jumbled all the chapters up and I was watching this out of sequence. Talk about confusing and losing the whole narrative of the film. It was in the present then it jumped to what you thought was the past but was the future, present, past (future, possibly past or not)then present then dwelled on the past which you then guessed was the future but was now the present by now. I just kept thinking this would all make sense and there would be some grand reveal but alas it was a real let down. I pretty much guessed very early on that the main protagonist was some sort of conduit for the supernatural. It was telegraphed clearly so the rest of the movie's hinge on this fell very flat as you knew the plot already. Acting was so-so to adequate but the awful direction and editing just made an average flick into quite a dire affair. Pretty much a waste of 1hr 21mins. This could have been a lot more atmospheric and tense but was just a shambles of poor direction and editing.
