Not the Most Original - But Surprisingly Good
Outcast was definitely better than I had expected it to be. The film tells the story of a woman and her son hiding out in a Scotland slum from would-be killers that have tracked them from Ireland. Things become complicated further when the son becomes the love interest of a beautiful young neighbor, and the witchcraft-practicing mother has to protect her son from what she considers a number of threats.
The film was shot well, with good cinematography and color correction. The film was shot on location in Edinburgh, and the visuals are kept dreary to stay in sync with the theme of the movie. The film is light on gore, but there's enough to satisfy most horror fans. The audience isn't given much of the film's "monster" throughout most of the movie, which seems to help make this a film just as much about the characters as offering up scares.
One of the best aspects of the film, though, is the cast. I became a fan of Scottish actress Kate Dickie after watching...
Worth watching but not great...
This movie is entertaining, a little slow but grabs your interest. It's worth watching but it could have been so much better. The story has a good base topic, witchcraft but it starts to lack dramatic encounters as the movie goes on. The ending is however not lacking in excitement and brings the movie to an exciting close.
another creepy great movie
a must see for horror fans....creepy, dark, strange, gritty, & unique.....i felt it was made well....characters good.........kept my interest....totally not what i was expecting...loved it !!!!
