Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
The Couchpotatoes After watching Alena I couldn't help having the feeling that I watched that kinda movie a dozen of times before. If it was exceptional then it wouldn't matter but unfortunately it isn't. It's been done before and way better. The story starts interesting but the more the story advances the more boring it gets. Watching high school bully girls for the entire movie is just boring after awhile. And the poor little girl they pick on and that is supposed to unleash her evil power is just not creepy enough to make it an interesting horror movie. Actually I don't think it has anything to do with a horror movie. Just one of those movies you watch with one eye open. Amalia Holm should taint her eyebrows dark as well if she wants to be darkhaired. That's just an information to her, as a bonus.
pattorrus I am a huge horror/thriller fanatic but this was by far one the worst film I witnessed . the main character starts out okay but later on she I just so annoying that I wish they executed her sooner. This film was a complete abomination mess that whoever created should go back to preschool to learn how to make a great film
Joe Caught this film on TV recently, and to my surprise it was quite a fine film. It didn't match the demographics for what it was catching, but I think most will find this intriguing.The main lead, Alena, is a brooding new student at a boarding school she clearly doesn't fit into. So surprise surprise, she is targeted by the school sport's team bullies, one who makes her life hell. The catch? Alena has a very dark secret from her past and it will obviously catch up with everyone who interferes.We have here a mostly derivative storyline, which has been well trod beforehand, being a combination of Mean Girls, Carrie, Heathers and Death Note (Japanese manga).However, it's more than the story. Our leads are excellent in this brooding tale and the camera work is excellent providing quite a dark frightening outlook on the first viewing.I liked it. It was predictable, but that shouldn't take away from anything. For teenagers, they'll enjoy this slice of darkness. The rest should respect it at least.
Michael Ledo Alena (Amalia Holm) is a quiet girl who goes from a public school to a posh private Oak Hill school. She has trouble with the "mean girls" lead by Filippa (Molly Nutley) the top Lacrosse player, a sport that Alena plays well. Alena is bullied, but has a friend from the old Contrail High School who protects her and enacts revenge. At about 35 minutes into the film we get some interesting details.This is a Swedish "Mean Girls" with a horror twist. The film was enough to keep me engaged. It was in Swedish with English subtitles. The DVD has no menu. It starts as soon as I placed it in the DVD player. No changing the sound, language, or even chapter/scene selection.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity. Based on a graphic novel by the same name.
