Based (apparently) on the true story of the Von Erich professional wrestling family

Fucking depressing movie lol - basically a family of retards acting like retards & dying retarded deaths for a retarded sport - but said retards attribute the misfortune to the family curse rather than their own retardation

It had a rating of 8/10. Whoever scored it as such clearly has a far greater appreciation of professional wrestling and a keener sense of nostalgia than I

5/10
I was surprised at the rating too.

Zac Steroid Efron is only 5'8". Looked like a joke compared to the people he was wrestling as did his brothers.

Stupid movie for stupid Americans.

enjoyable, but as i said before, the book was much better

That's fairly typical of book adaptations with the occasional notable exception

Camp Pleasant Lake 2024

Horror with a very high rating of 8.5 on the site I watched it on

Fairly predictable weak plot, with pretty good casting and wardrobe

Entertaining but not noteworthy, as a viewer you don't really have a hero nor antihero - most of the characters in this movie are not likeable or relatable and the massive plot holes are easy enough to ignore

It's something to look at to pass a few hours, and maybe if horror is your preferred genre you will enjoy it more than I did

4/10

very watchable/entertaining:



Among the on-site filming locations in Thailand are Suvarnabhumi Airport, Ban Mung, Sangkhla Buri, Chiang Dao, and Sam Phan Bok. As the trailer was released, Thai fans also pointed out a scene shot at Makkasan station of Bangkok's ARL.[17
