I am only giving this movie a 1 for the great cast, though I can't imagine what any of them were thinking. This movie was horrible

Good films always raise compelling questions, whether the format is fiction or documentary fact.

It is both painfully honest and laugh-out-loud funny at the same time.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

I think I haven't rated a movie so low in years. It is badly written, badly acted, badly edited, has bad sound, even the song at the end is horrible and played out of tune, no direction that I could discern, yet it is not in any way so terrible that it would be funny. It doesn't even have scantly dressed teens in it.Indeed, this is the biggest movie sin that one can think of: it is completely boring! It brings nothing to the table. After seeing this you can be certain you will regret wasting the time you spent fast forwarding to look for any scene that has any emotional or intellectual impact on you (and found none). This movie is the blandest film I have ever seen in my life.Bottom line: Avoid it like the Aberration it is.

Powerful horror film imaginatively penned by screenwriter Wendy Douglas- Argent offers a fresh twist to oft told classic ghost stories. Director Elford Douglas-Argent uses his camera expertly as he creates an atmosphere of fear and dread so intense it's almost unendurable. The scares and thrills come fast and furiously and unrelentingly. While this film provides its share of blood and gore, it is the intelligent and insightful story that makes this far superior to most genre movies. The acting is first-rate and the cast give some truly superb performances. The characters are true to life and extremely well developed so we actually come to care about their fate. It is indeed a credit to the script and director that the story stays on target and never loses its plausibility. Disturbing, thrilling, and downright terrifying at times, Aberration will keep audiences on the edge of their seats as they feverishly bite their nails.

These actors are horrible.Why do directors/casting use obvious 25-30year old, and try to make us believe they are in high school? They would have been better off using 17 year old.they would probably have had better acting skills than these "adult" actors.The script is all over the place.Who came up with the stiff dialog?I couldn't get through this movie, and it takes a lot to make me stop watching a film.At least I didn't pay to see it.

RLJ and Image Entertainment are known for giving independent filmmakers an avenue to get their movies out to the masses. They continue this trend with the supernatural thriller "Aberration." While not as bad as it could be, it comes across as a TV-movie-of-the-week designed for Lifetime to show during the Halloween season.Christy Dawson sees dead people. Lately, she's been catching glimpses of the ghost of a boy. He's warning her where certain students in her high school are going to turn up murdered. It becomes obvious that someone close to Christy is taking out her childhood friends. Can she figure out what the specter of the boy is warning her about before she meets her own end?"Aberration" looks good visually. It's just that nothing out of the ordinary happens in it as far as the story or scare tactics are concerned. Audiences are beyond the thrills provided to them here. "The Conjuring," "The Grudge," and other films like them have ruined the child ghost sub-genre as we know it. Filmmakers have a tough road ahead of them from here on out when it comes to these types movies.Although the movie isn't rated, I would give it at least a PG-13. There's no nudity, but some sexual content is seen and insinuated. There's bad language, violence, and mild gore as well.The only people who will be frightened by "Aberration" are those that don't watch horror movies or supernatural thrillers on a regular basis. If they occasionally take in one while sitting around on a Sunday evening watching Lifetime, this will provide them with ample moments to jump out of their seats in terror. Hardcore horror fans need to scroll past this one when adding items to their IMDb Watchlist.
