Frightmare (1974)
2/10
Uneventful and boring Film
1 August 2006
Warning: Spoilers
I am startled to see that there are hardly any 'negative' reviews of this routine film, on the advice of the positive reviews I rented the film and was utterly taken aback at how boring and amateurish it looked.

The start looked promising, an eerie promenade at an abandoned carnival, but then it went downhill from there.

Most of the screen time is taken up by inexperienced actors who can't hold a scene together, and the story is tepid and unworthy for a long feature.

Nothing ever really happens and there are no scary moments or plot elements that make us shudder. The 'murders' look fake and are exaggerated to the point of ridiculousness.

I kept waiting for something startling to happen, but it never did, just banter between dull British folk.

Avoid this at all costs.
