THE GHOSTS OF MONDAY - Review

DISTRIBUTOR: Cleopatra Entertainment

SYNOPSIS:  A group of US filmmakers travel to Cyprus to film a reality show pilot that focuses on the supernatural. Their premier location is the tragically famous Hotel Gula - a once popular resort where more than 100 people died in mysterious circumstances. Right from their arrival tensions mount and what begins as a frustrating location shoot becomes a terrifying journey into the mystery and horror of Cypriot folklore and mythology.

REVIEW: What I enjoyed the most about Francesco Cinquemani’s THE GHOSTS OF MONDAY is that it is not another found footage movie and actor Julian Sands is channeling this Vincent Price performance to create a contemporary version.

The story is just not that great and it is easy to detect where it is going. There isn’t a lot of substance to the background story of the myth and feels superficial. The performances add more to the characters than their backgrounds. Every character feels like a type, not a full cliché, but almost. There are these murderous, I’m assuming twins, that show up and we’re not introduced to or given any information on. I went back and re-watched earlier moments to see if I missed anything but I couldn’t find a clue. Likewise, I can’t recall how the title figures into the plot, unless that was the day of the climax? With at least seven core characters, there is little meat on the bone with a running time of 1 hour and 16 minutes. My interest held on by a thread and at times was straining, to be honest.

The production designs are adequate. The hotel location was okay but the cinematography could have added more to the atmosphere. It doesn't as it is utilitarian. The special effects are “film school 101” and there is a creature that we don’t see much of. The transitions are basic and have no finesse, such as when the action moves from the hotel basement to the underground ancient study. Likewise, some interesting cinematography could have added more atmosphere to the location here. In terms of the costumes, it became obvious that this was basically a one costume shoot per character, which may take some viewers out of the film. There are some visual effects at the end but they feel like some basic out of the can effects that came with whatever program they used.

The cast do an admirable job creating these characters and presenting something that holds the viewer’s interest. Overall they play it safe. They never feel fully invested in the film’s more intense scenes. As I previously mentioned, veteran actor Julian Sands has some fun with the role and adds some, possibly unintentional, comic relief.

THE GHOSTS OF MONDAY is an interesting idea that lacks any vision or a level of artistry to elevate it beyond a pragmatic filmmaking effort. It’s not a bad film, it just lacks any bang for your viewing effort.

At the time of my writing this review actor Julian Sands is still missing from his hike on Mt. Baldy in the San Gabriel Mountains, about 40 miles northeast of downtown Los Angeles. Our thoughts and prayers go out to his family and close friends.

Michael Madsen in Trailer for Action Comedy 'Welcome to Acapulco'

"Do as I say, or we're both dead." Momentum Pictures has debuted a trailer for a new action comedy titled Welcome to Acapulco, made by Cuban filmmaker Guillermo Iván (of Bolaetrapo, Blue Family, Habana Instant). The tropical crime plot involves a kid who ends up in landing Acapulco, Mexico instead of New Mexico. As soon as he lands, he finds himself on the run from high-powered criminals, deadly hitmen and the Feds, all looking for a mysterious package that he has allegedly smuggled through customs yet knows nothing about. Mike Kingsbaker stars as Matt Booth, and the cast includes Michael Madsen, William Baldwin, Bradley Gregg, Ana Serradilla, Ana Layevska, Zach Rose, Guillermo Garcia, Maria Elena Heredia, and Loris Curci. This looks ridiculous (and we've seen before anyway) but entertaining. ›››

And when Robert Englund says something is scary, I believe him. After all, he is Freddy Krueger. See more »
