The Pact (II) (2012)
7/10
Don't expect the next Halloween
16 March 2018
This low budget Horror movie can be descibed in one word: watchable. Right from the start you realize that this movie was done with a low budget, 400k to be exact, and so it had a little bit more than Halloween. Yes, the cult classic, Mr. Michael "Slashergod" Myers, the legend. The Pact will not live up to this expectation ever. But here is the thing. The Pact still can be a lot of fun if you let that guard down and just focus on the story and this slightly eerie atmoshphere that is carried throughout the entire movie. Most of the dialogues were a bit stiff, but when things get intese actress Caity Lotz pulls it off quite well. Funny that the appearance of Mark Steger alone is enough to creep you out. He was a great casting choice! Haley Hudson as the blind "medium"... unfortunately not so much. To me this movie was pretty intense as I first saw it. After rewatching it a lot of the fascination got lost. If you never saw it, definetely see it. Just don't expect the next Halloween.
