If you're looking for an action packed horror thrill with nightmare fuel look somewhere else 70% of this movie is bland and boring some scenes don't add up to the film or characters at all which leaves u confused at times acting mediocre at best lightly poorly made horror film attempt

I decided to watch this because it was rated 3 out of 5 stars on Netflix and Netflix people are notoriously hard on horror movies, so I figured it would be the equivalent of a 5 star by usual rating standards....Let me preface this by stating that I love horror films, even ones that are also kind of stupid and that the majority of other people (let alone fancy film critics) hate, so truly, I am not expecting a whole lot.. However, even with the bar set to the ground, this movie was a HUGE disappointment. The acting is bad, the writing is terrible, the plot is all over the place, and the characters' motivations seem to come from nowhere and everywhere all at the same time.Like a fellow and anonymous Netflix reviewer said: "There was no plot! Just a bunch of scenes stitched together and the end was a W-T-F moment if I ever saw one."One of my other favorite comments was: "Typical B horror movie.... black guy gets killed first."So enough of the preface let's get into the real talk.**Spoilers below**I hated all the characters: the brother was a complete nutcase and I relished in his demise; you feel sort of bad for his girlfriend but not really; the Sabrina lady and her boyfriend not only had zero chemistry, but they were both annoying as all hell so when they died, it's sort of a celebration. The only characters that were somewhat likable - the Prego and her husband - also had their off-putting moments like when Prego's husband jumps to her rescue and she deserts him in his greatest moment of need, and of course moments like when the husband (who is supposed to be smart for god's sake) could have avoided this entire fiasco by saying "Bugger off brother-in-law and your nonsense plans," but instead gets hare-brained ideas exactly like joining his deranged brother-in-law along with an entourage of equally mentally unbalanced companions on a hike to an obviously unwelcoming, haunted prison. Anyways, even though this movie follows no plot or any sort of logic, the likability (not very high) of the characters seems to match the longevity of their respective lifespans (not very long) so at least this movie is just and fair in that sense. However, watching justice be delivered to these dumdums is simply not worth sitting through 1.5 hours of all the b o l l o c k s this terrible movie has in store. If you want to watch a good horror movie about people exploring a haunted building watch Archivo 253.Final Verdict: Do not trust ratings on Netflix ever again (at least for horror movies).

I'm a big fan of low budget horror and this one clearly had enough backing behind it to not let its budget hamper its production values, but that is about all this movie has going for it! The characters have nothing to them and the plot jumps about with little sense or reason.Sometimes when a movie has shallow characters and directionless writing it is at least saved by big original or daring in what it is trying to portray, not here. Instead we are given a generic plot and a bunch of clichés, just jumbled up so it doesn't even make a standard horror movie. It is boring and yet confused at the same time, I'm not even sure how that is possible!Overall I can't recommend this movie, it's not like it's even 'so bad it's good', it's just bad because it has no real entertainment value and very little to say for itself. You would not be missing out to watch most any other low budget horror movie instead of this, seriously.

**SPOILER CONTAINED**"Bleed" did not disappoint--it was confusing from beginning to end. A husband and wife move out to the middle of nowhere. The husband is a doctor; the wife, a teacher. On the way home from grocery shopping, the wife has a flat tire and is helped out by a local law enforcement officer. He notices a mark on her neck. And then it gets real weird. The newlywed couple have invited another couple to join them in a celebration. A celebration of what the viewer never really finds out. The female is supposed to be clairvoyant, or something. She senses something in the house as soon as they arrive. The wife's brother and his "flavor-of-the-month" arrive uninvited. He and his girl are supposed to be in tune with the spirit world, although you'd never think they do anything but...well...you know. Through a dare, two couples and the husband (sans wife) decide to visit a burned down prison. Confused enough? "Bleed" just didn't cut the muster for me. It skips around so much. You never really know what the hell is going on. Questions abound with answers never being supplied. I could not really tell you what this was about. Oh, but everybody dies.Rated "R" for brief nudity, simulated sex, language, and violence.
