It is beyond this movie buff's understanding, as of why are the movies of Benson and Moorhead considered horrors, or thrillers. They're at best arthouse experiments. No matter how many times one watches Resolution, forward or backwards, it makes little sense. To give it a 9 or 10 is just nasty. It defiles everything IMDB is all about. Of course, everyone is entitled to their opinion, but Resolution is no masterpiece, not a horror and by far not the best thing you ever saw.I had made a terrible mistake the other day and watched The Endless (forgot these blokes made Resolution). Must be more vigilant next time. Blacklisted.

A small paced movie with a so so mysterious story. The movie sends us some clues about what might have been happening in the cabin or its surroundings during the past years, but at the end... nothing is uncovered.Nothing that happens is relevant for the action! The reservation Indians are not relevant for the action. The weird persons that show up are not relevant for the action. The only reason for the action is the struggle between a childhood friend vs his drug addiction. Those are good drama scenes. If this was the main action of the movie it would have been a nice drama film. By using the past ghosts of a man trying a self redemption by saving his addicted friend.All the mystery is useless, despite some futuristic / sci-fi scenes that allow a spirit or an alien to control nowadays technology and predict the future...All the mystery ends in a ridiculous way, so it's BAD.

I bought this on DVD awhile back, 2013 time & never got round to watching it, though bought it as it stated it was a horror & looked good, it reminded me of Eli Roth's Cabin Fever (which is a sh!t load better than this film & I'll explain why further down...) & so I bought it & had it on my shelf for 2-3 years before getting round to watching!Well & wow... where to start... well uh... nothing happened!!! Literally!!! 94 minutes of a 2 guys 1 of which is a base head & the other which is an annoying sh!t helping his druggie pal on the road to a new as he tries to get him of the drugs! That's it! For 94 minutes, with... Drum Roll... Fillers! Yes! Fillers of a couple of the druggies friends, some cash exchanging/threats, weird bits of footage with disturbing visuals via cassettes/records/film reels & last but not least, the druggies friends walking through the wilderness! Wow! That's it!I'd say perhaps the biggest insult is how highly it's rated! Aside from idiot reviewers on this site & others who must've been drunk or stoned while watching this, or have never watch it at all! It also proves for the 2nd time this year that RT is as fake as a pair of porn stars t!tties! It has it as 100% on that website! It really is infuriating as the reviews on here, there & everywhere are fake! Fake!!! How this piece of crap can be rated highly, let alone 100% is beyond me! Why lie is my question!? Either people have been paid a lorry load of £££ or they, like I said, where hammered & or stoned! Even this year as I'm writing it's 100% & the other insult, it was also marketed as a horror! There was f*#k all Horror in it! Not to mention how it stated on the box it was what Cabin Fever should've been! Wow! Just wow!I just simply don't get why a lot of people like this sh!te! It's just hair rippingly annoying! It was just like a plane that wouldn't or should I say couldn't take off! Every time something happened like the guy finding a piece of evidence with footage on it never came to anything! It was a jumble up mess as their was no real story-line going on! What was the story!? What was the footage!? What was it!? What was the point!? Damn!! I mean there was nothing even remotely interesting about this film it simply made no sense whatsoever! There was no point at all & there was loads of questions & plot holes! I think it is safe to say the reviews are fake! I'm sure of it as I simply cannot see whats so good about this tangled mess of a film that makes 0 sense!The ending was the only great bit...! Because it ended! Yes this film finally ended though the ending was as crap as the film it wasn't surprising though again, it didn't explain sh!t! Even as the film began it seemed to rattle on for 20 minutes until I found that for the next hour & a half it was going to be nothing more than gob sh!te dialogue & stupid filler clips! This would've been better as a short film & a thriller with a good few tweaks here & there! 94 is both an insult & a OTT joke! I mean I was yawning & bored sh!tless it was just astonishing! I give this joke of a film 1/10! It falls flat on it's face from the get go & pretty much goes absolutely nowhere with nearly every attempt being made to pick up get going! It's as if they're using their "mistakes" or stock/b-roll footage attempts as fillers to make the feature longer & pretty much, to include them in the finished film alone is just stupid! Not to mention the reason why it made f*#k all sense throughout! Never seeing it again! Don't waste you time! Watch Cabin Fever instead, it sh!tes all over this pathetic wannabe piece of sh!te!

I think anyone reading these reviews that hasn't seen this yet should just watch it.It's different, it's strange, and the ending is... bizarre?it's so different from other movies that it's worth watching, a budget film that has an original idea, you'll question whats going on while you watch but the end is a proper 'what the...?!!' moment that doesn't seem to make sense, and so you try to make sense of it, and think about it for a long time...It's not action packed, but it'c clever enough to keep you going along with it, and i think it really underrated looking at the reviews,
