Don't waste your time. Terrible cinematography in this clearly low-budget trash. The use of the n-word while talking about someone, was where I turned it off. The hostage throwing up oatmeal earlier is where I should have truned it off. Just wasted 20min of my life.
... View MorePROS: If this movie was a dark comedy, it didn't do half bad... But it wasn't a dark comedy so it was pretty awful.CONS: To start us off, the plot??? Not only is it so poorly constructed, but it makes absolutely no sense either. With most movies you can pull out plot holes, but in VANISH there was no plot to be had! Another issue was the genre selected in this film. You could obviously tell that the director wanted a horror but failed at the script, so instead he filled the movie with worthless gore and blood. And to add to the monstrosity of gore fest the acting was crap. After a mans face is cut into with a saw he laughs (it was a terrible, unthinkable, and unrealistic laugh) and lives to fight back! Like C'mon, who do they think I am. Yet another trouble with VANISH was the ending. Trust me when I tell you, the ending is a plot twist that shouldn't even have been considered. Just because you put in a plot twist doesn't make it a good ending, it makes it a sad excuse for a horror film. Last but not least, CATCHPHRASES! From classics like, "You're roadkill," and, " This is your dead end," and last but not least," You took a wrong turn."www.chorror.com
... View MoreBryan did a fantastic job on this first movie - its horror - its a fun ride. Maiara Walsh kicked butt, Danny Trejo was classic Danny (LOL) and Candy Man Tony Todd was a delight to work with. Hollywood's a beyotch to get into - those who try know that. It's not easy making a movie - its not easy getting distribution either and they did it. Two thumbs up.The movie was shot entirely in the van - all of it. Bryan was adamant about accomplishing that - and he did it. It's action packed - bloody - worth the time to grab a few beers, chips and popcorn and just go with it.
... View MoreA young woman is kidnapped by three guys who demand money to her dad in order to free her.The movie is bad but at the same time entertains and it's fun to watch if you don't take it serious and enjoy the ride. The situations, dialogs, the plot all are ridiculous. There are some graphic kills in it, but in rest is kinda humorous even the battle between Shane and Emma will keep you smile for the whole time. Still there is not much to say about this, is short only 75 minutes, almost the entire movie takes place in a van, what can I say, it could be the perfect movie for gore fans. Yes, and the ending was kinda dry, I actually liked the songs in the credits more then the film.
