I can't believe how bad this movie was...i had heard that timo rose was some kind of indie horror genius. No way! Everything about this movie was rubbish.The story is barely there and more than half the running time seems to be padding.The acting is some of the worst i've ever seen. The whole film looks so cheap...the effects were horrible. Films that are given away on youtube have better effects than this.Depressingly this isn't the worse film that I've ever seen but that's more damning of the others than praising of this trash.Seriously, stay away from this crap. I sometimes feel that a movie that gets slated might be worth a watch, just to laugh at.This one isn't.

There are many insane people living outside of psychiatric clinics. As a matter of fact, it is even the trend today to let them live in community as long as they do not harm their environment. However, with "art" it is a bit different than it is with everyday's activities. Max Bense had already attacked Joseph Buys in the 50ies making it clear that the slaughtering of a pig has nothing to do with art. And this was before Godard's infamous film. Nevertheless, the second law of thermodynamics predicts the chaotic state as the more natural state than the ordered one. Therefore, it should not really astonish that movies with an "entropic" understanding of what is art, are in the majority. However, living in a democracy, it seems to be a price that one has to pay that the lowest-level nonsense can be sold as art.Another point, however, it is, that by such movies like "Fearmakers", a whole country like Germany gets into a bad reputation. On the international market, the new releases from Germany are mainly about "Vergangenheitsbewältigung", i.e. the innumerable Anti-Nazi- and Anti-Stasi movies, followed by Gay movies, and then by trash movies like one to comment here. Nazi-Stasi-Gay-Trash - every American must think that this Tetrad is what Germany produces today, and people like Rose are responsible for this thrash-image Germany gets. The reality look quite different, but obviously, it is easier to reach the international market with pseudo-art than with real art. At the same time, where hundreds of movies from Germany's past are still waiting to be finally released on international DVD - fine, old works who could stand the competition of their foreign concurrence - what one gets in the US is the garbage of Rose and his brothers in the "spirit". "Fearmakers" is not even German, it is 90% English. There are German actors whose German is hardly understandable, full of elementary mistakes. Such elaborates like "Fearmakers" are mental polluting of the environment.

I was very disappointed in this film- It is one of the most amateurish of Timo Rose's career. And only seems to have been made because the actress he obviously admires was in town at the time!! Lame Lame story and acting!! Very limited and thrown together quickly gore effects- After the enjoyable BARRICADE i thought Timo Rose was moving ahead with his directing- And maybe becoming close to the superior Olaf Ittenbach (who has definitely progressed as a director) But after seeing (and sadly buying!!) this film it appears Timo isn't the talent that i hoped he was. I hope the upcoming 'Beast' movie is better - because this is an insult to his fans! It should have been an extra on a DVD- it's like an after thought- a home movie done with drunk friends- I will definitely be more wary about buying / viewing Timo films from now on.

OK, to truly appreciate this movie you have to consider the work that Tom (Joe Davison) and Sammy (Timo Rose) do to be logical in the first place.If you do, then it is a sure bet that you are a fan of "Ghost Hunters." If not, then the characters of Tom and Sammy are just out there and a couple of ridiculous nerds. Funny? Not really, just strange.All this about a "revenge spirit" and dreams is just a frame for a good old fashioned mystery about the death of Sarah's (Debbie Rochon) sister. Debbie was, of course, her usual great self, even if she had a horrible script to work with. She did her best, man.Blood and gore was good, and, of course, there is the gratuitous flash of Debbie as she steps out of the shower. That alone is worth watching the flick for, in my humble opinion.
