This movie was awful, it was like watching a porno movie without the porn. I was waiting for Ron Jeremy to show up. Seriously, No Plot. I couldn't believe that someone would try and pass this off as a movie. The music was cheesy, acting was terrible, and worst of all the plot was horrible. A 2 year old must have written this movie. If you have ever been exposed to any types of entertainment you will hate this movie. If you enjoy watching paint dry, then you may enjoy this movie. Save yourself the headache, this movie isn't worth it. Who ever directed this movie doesn't have any career in film making. Sorry. This was by far the worst movie ever made. The awards at the top are even fake, zoom in on the movie cover and you will see that they don't even have a source. What a pathetic attempt at trying to make a dime off people. 2 Thumbs down, all the way down.

If ever there was a love it or hate it suspense movie, it is Windcroft. But given that it is 4/10 at the time of my writing (with only 99 votes) it definitely looks like the "hate it" camp are winning. Just don't let its awful rating put you off. For this is in many ways an excellent movie which keeps you guessing (if you give it the time for its slow suspense to build); however, I'd say that you have to find yourself with an interest in its characters within the first 20 minutes or you will probably be annoyed by it ultimately.When someone wrote that this was like a cross between the shining and Wuthering heights, they weren't far off the mark. For it definitely has elements of both in it.Having said that, I don't wish to say too much more about it at present as I don't wish to give anything away. But it certainly deserves more than its current meagre 4/10 rating. The movie's direction, acting and screenplay were all first rate. Yet some of the complainers write that the movie is not explained and therefore it is rubbish. Well why does madness need an explanation always? Sometimes some people are insane and they are very good at hiding that insanity within themselves until...By the way, I am not someone who ever enjoys b grade horror movies and still very much recommend this for those who enjoyed a movie such as 'Haute Tension', or, 'Ils' (aka Them).

This was too awful for words! The music was horrific throughout. The acting was abysmal for the most part. The plot was hidden until the last 15 minutes of the, dare I call it a film. This was akin to 65 minutes of watching paint dry and wondering when the plot would start to 15 minutes of (insert any crap slice n' dice gore fest title here).For the people who raved... OMG.... start watching some real films. Real stars. Real acting. Real plots. Real editing. Real music. Then come back and realize what asses you made of yourselves with your great ratings on this piece of schlock. I mean to each their own, BUT BUT BUT this film had not one shred of creditability to which one single star could be awarded.

Where did this film come from? I saw this at a festival here in Oklahoma over the weekend and it blew away the competition. It was like a cross between The Shining and Wuthering Heights, with strong characters and and a seemingly standard love story - but then it all goes crazy and turns into this scary thriller. It caught me completely off guard.The acting was amazing, even for a cast of unknowns. The two female roles were very strong, and the lead actor seems a bit blah at first but then as the movie progressed, he got more and more sinister and frightening, ending with a performance that rivals some of Hitchcock's better villains. (The fact that I never saw the actors before this film made it more believable, and I was easily swept into the story).The score (and the photography) was unbelievable too. It looked like a "Hollywood" movie instead of some crummy video. The rest of the movies at the fest were mediocre compared to the quality of WINDCROFT. It really is a MUST SEE for anyone who likes a truly independent film, and a great story.
