Old People

I'm unsure why this film got such bad reviews; it certainly wasn't as terrible as some of the reviews lead me to believe it would be! It's definitely a long winded movie, but I watched it with my horror loving family and we all enjoyed it in the way that one enjoys a mindless slasher movie. Old People wasn't anything incredibly groundbreaking, or a cinematic masterpiece. It was on the gory side, but I didn't find it egregious like Terrifier - though I wouldn't watch Old People with kids or very sensitive folks. For how long the movie is, there was a lot that's left unexplained and the "plot" was loose and got lost in unnecessary B-plots. Despite its faults, it's a solid zombie/contagion-esque film that. The movie reminds me of 80s slasher films and has some very good scares and horror moments. Overall, there's potential for this to have been a fantastic movie that flopped a bit, but I would say it's worth checking out.
