Not worth going off to see the wizard

Yellowbrickroad is a horror movie very loosely based on the wizard of oz. The story follows a small group of people that supposedly follow some sort of a trail through the woods. I say supposedly because there are only a few scenes in which it looks like they may be on some sort of actual trail. Now I’m going to give this whole movie away because no one should even bother with it. Yelowbrickroad makes Insidious (2010) seem much better by comparison. I thought Insidious had a bad ending but this one is completely out there as one of the worst endings I’ve ever seen. The entirety of the movie is the group of people walking through the woods. As they follow this trail some old tyme music plays and drives them mad. This music is so bad that they go crazy and start killing each other. I stuck with this movie hoping that maybe the end could redeem the rest. This is most certainly not the case; the end only makes the movie much much worse. The only complement I have for Yellowbrickroad is at least it tried something new. It failed horribly, but at least it tried. Save your money and time, this movie is worth neither.
No, I do not recommend this movie.

Finally a scary horror movie

Finally after all these years of horror movie obsession I have found a movie that's actually scary. I haven't had a movie have an affect on me since I was 6. I had to consciously try not to think about the movie so I could get to sleep. This movie is effective in what it is trying to accomplish.
For me the performances in this film really worked. Every bit of dialog seemed natural. They seemed like a real couple with real problems. The whole movie was that way. Every decision was made to draw you further into this experience and make you believe it's real. I have never experienced a greater sense of suspension of disbelief. I have no complains about this movie except for maybe the ending. Just go see it.
Yes, I recommend this movie.
