Do not waste your time on this one. Characters are cardboard, the story takes 45 minutes to really get started (except for one quick kill, it's really dull to that point), and even then it doesn't amount to much.I'm not sure why the villain is called Mr. Hush. There's some kind of multi-generational revenge theme that isn't even mentioned until the last 15 minutes or so,and a dream sequence -- which comes out of nowhere -- is filmed exactly like everything else in the movie. That is, there's no transition, no fuzzy lens, no mist, no indication that it *isn't* just footage that was spliced in at the wrong place. And let's not forget the tedious halfway-through-the-credits epilogue that makes no sense whatsoever.I streamed this one, and the online description referred to it as "a throwback to '80s slasher films." It isn't. As another reviewer posted, "Mr. Hush" lacks a fearsome villain, has absolutely no jiggle factor, includes no over-the-top gore or imaginative kills...all things that are staples of the genre."Throwback," indeed. This one should have been thrown back where it came from.

What a waste of an hour and half! The camera work was so shaky I got motion sickness(maybe it was the acting), the shots were so close every time the characters shifter a little the camera would move up down or sideways. I guess you could turn this movie into a drinking game, every time Holland screams you drink- might last 5 minutes. If you watch this don't blame me. Gotta add more lines so this will post Bad Movie Really Bad! The only thing I liked about it was they filmed near my old home, Stroudsburg and the woods were nice I feel bad for anyone else that watches this. The actor that plays the lead Holland has a very nice acting/stunt resume wonder if he can keep this one off? I think I have enough. Text to post

I'm a self proclaimed massive fan of terrible horrible horror movies. Truly. Nothing I enjoy more than some crappy acting and unnecessary B- grade special effects. That being said, this movie was just too much for me. Its just too bad. I can't even handle it. I'm literally 15 minutes into watching it on netflix right now and I can't quite make myself turn it off. I don't know why. Its not even as intriguing as watching a train wreck. I'd prefer a marathon of Asylum films to this. Its just not good. Its just.... not. So don't even bother. It looks interesting enough from the general cover and description, but even as a lover of bad acting this was just too much for me.

The first time I saw John Carpenter's "Dark Star", I hated it ... thought it was miserable. That was because I took the film seriously. Once I realized that Carpenter meant for "Dark Star" to be a farce, I got it. David Madison's "Mr. Hush", though not necessarily meant to be a farce, persay, it definitely is not meant to be taken seriously. The intent was not to make a film that fills your mind with terror and dread. He had fun with the 80s-style teen horror film (i.e. Fright Night, Lost Boys, etc.). The drama was overacted, the villain was campy ... that is what Madison emulated. The only difference, and I think this is probably the biggest flaw in the film, he doesn't give the audience a clue. There are other issues that I have ... there are some sound problems, and in a few places the film seems to loose its arc. However, Mr. Hush is very entertaining. It is not meant to scare you ... though, there are definitely moments of suspense. Madison assembled a great cast and put forth a good effort. For an indie film, I liked it. I watch literally dozens of indie horror films per year and write reviews for HorrorHound Magazine. A lot of what I see comes from dedicated horror fans who, unfortunately, don't really understand film. David Madison in NO WAY fits into this category. I look very forward to his next project and recommend "Mr. Hush" for those who enjoy low- budget, indie horror.
