I didn't watch because of particular actors being billed so that wasn't a turn off for me like it was for others. It was a lot better than the typical 3/4 star horror movies I watch on Amazon. I agree with those who consider it more of a ghost/supernatural flick rather than a horror. I think since the ghosts were after the bad guy it didn't seem scary, although it did have some freaky scenes toward the end. It did have a bit of a slow start, but after the first murder it kept me engaged throughout. It also had me emotionally vested in the movie as I just kept getting angrier that the D-bag antagonist just kept getting away with more and more stuff. It really had me hoping he would get what was coming to him. It really got to the point where I was thinking that simply getting killed wouldn't be enough punishment for him, and I must admit I wasn't disappointed with how it all caught up with him...very satisfying. If you're like me and are constantly scouring Amazon and Netflix for a nightly horror flick I would definitely recommend this one. It's by far the best I've seen this week (turning off Mr. Cleaver as I type, this seems awful).

"I never seen nothing like this. Well, you might want to have a little chat with the father. He's dead. In fact, he died in the sticks too, about 13 years ago. No, I mean the father of the baby she's carrying. This girl's about four months pregnant."Not long ago I received an invitation to attend the premiere of "Cold Moon" in the company of the creators and actors, including Christopher Lloyd. Needless to say, I was slightly excited at that moment. Imagine me being in the same room together with one of my youth idols. Together in the same movie theater with Dr. Emmett Brown, the crazy professor who made the time-spiral unsafe with his converted Deloreon in "Back to the Future". Would I be as enthusiast about the movie in question, I would have been mad at myself for not booking a flight. Unfortunately, the enthusiasm was totally absent while watching the screener that was sent to me. Even though "Cold Moon" is similar to those cheap 80s vintage horror-films. I get melancholic when I think about that period. In those days, I always came home overloaded with a stack of rented VHS cassettes, after which I sat down in front of the TV the whole weekend."Cold moon" is an ordinary crime story that could serve as an episode in the Columbo series. However, there are also supernatural entities scaring the living sh*t out of the perpetrator (although he turns his back to them during most confrontations. Nerves of steel, I guess). And all this begins the day Margaret Larkin (Sara Catherine Bellamy) is on her way home and is being thrown into the local creek with her bike. She drowns on the spot. When her body is caught by a fisherman out of the water, it's the beginning of a search for the perpetrator (That shouldn't be such a hard task for the sheriff, since it's such a small community). Grandmother Evelyn Larkin (Candy Clark) points her accusatory finger at Nathan Redfield (Josh Stewart), son of James Redfield (Christopher Lloyd) tycoon and founder of the only bank there.And at the same time, Margaret's wicked spirit winches itself out of the water and starts to haunt the killer. It's not entirely clear why Margaret returns as a revenge-seeking spirit. It's also unclear why the identity of the perpetrator was announced so quickly. In my opinion, the rest of the movie must be damn intriguing enough and of high quality when doing that. There's no tension anymore. And that's the big drawback in this movie. It's not really scary or thrilling. A horror without creepy moments or a frightening atmosphere can hardly be called a horror. Even though the apparitions and ghostly images are at times quite successful.The acting performances are equivalent to that of the overall atmosphere of the film. Rather bland with a few exceptions. The only one who sort of made an impression was Josh Stewart. Although most of the time he walks around with sleepy, semi-closed eyes due to the amount of alcohol he consumed throughout the day. He doesn't look like a real manic psychopath, but his personality shows some dark sides. Christopher Lloyd's role is no big deal and is limited to a few minutes. The only thing he does is gaze at the local beauty queen (Rachel "Miss Pie" Brooke Smith) while jabbering unintelligible sentences. And then you have Evelyn (Candy Clark) and Jerry Larkin (Chester "My father die" Rushing), trying to run a blueberries farm. You can't say it's high-quality acting during their short-term presence. Especially Candy Clark was an annoying character who constantly acts hysterically after the death of her granddaughter."Cold Moon" isn't extremely bad, but it wasn't convincing either. Personally, I think the movie poster is brilliant, but overall the movie is just a weak attempt. The attempt to make some kind of horror didn't work well. The movie has nostalgic value. Certainly if you've experienced the 80's intensely when talking about horror movies. I'm sure you'll see this movie on some television channel in the middle of the night in the future. However, I wouldn't stay up for it.More reviews here : http://movie-freak.be/

When I saw the trailer, I was excited but mad that I had to wait a whole year for us just to rent the movie. I was happy when I rented it, sat down immediately and watched it. There were some things that I didn't know would be in the movie but I blindly went in without reading the book so...yeah. You can tell that there are some people who just started out acting because it shows. All I'm gonna say is that it is kind of boring and bland at the beginning but as the movie progresses, it becomes more interesting and pretty good. The characters do talk low to the point where you need to turn up the volume a lot in order to hear but when the intense scenes come in, it explodes in your eardrums so....just wanted to warn you.I do, however, find it as a good movie. It was kind of worth the year of waiting. I actually watched it twice and hoped that it would later be released on DVD so I can watch it whenever I please. It was bland at first but it gets juicy later on.

This is a difficult movie to review. It had both good acting and bad acting. Good visual effects and bad visual effects. Interesting story line and a boring story line. The start played out kind-a-like a 90s B movie and then it got better, then it got worse, then better, then worse.Christopher Lloyd appeared all of 10-15 minutes throughout. Tommy Wiseau said 1 - 2 lines...so giving them first billing is dishonest. Overall there were some OK scares and I Liked the bizarre imagery at times. Otherwise the story was a bit disjointed and the editing felt a bit jerky. It wasn't good enough to like, but not bad enough to hate. 4/10
