Patrick H @RT16645641 Nov 29 A higher budget than usual does nothing to improve Skinwalker Ranch (also known as Skinwalkers), a prosaic found footage horror. Fans know the story well now: a gang of Scooby Doo types travel to the site of reported supernatural activity. They bicker, scream, run around and say bone-headed things like ‘this is just the beginning’ and ‘we are close to uncovering proof of paranormal phenomena.’ Things kick off when the rancher’s son vanishes into thin air in the opening scene, but it happens so early and unremarkably that not twenty minutes has passed before you’ve completely forgotten about him. It’s hard to care about a kid you’ve only known of for two minutes, or about his alarmed father or the team of investigators turning his house into a surveillance convention. The investigators work for a shady scientific corporation who have been interested in the ranch for quite some time, sending in the team for reasons that are not quite clear. There are also giant wolves on the ranch, again for reasons not quite clear. There’s an elderly Native American harbinger, who seems to have been thrown in as an afterthought. A film abjectly dependent on the thrills of a tired genre. See more Karl S @RT04551491 Oct 1 The first couple of seasons were good. The rest are just extensive repeated drone ,laser or rocket tests. Nothing knew or exciting. Oh look its a 1.6 gh signal again lol See more Cristian s @cristiansj 01/24/2024 Un found footage que no se la anda con chiquitas y va directo a los bifes mostrando bichazos, ovnis, fantasmas, poseídos, seres de otra dimensiones y lo que se te cante en una historia de hora y media. Si bien cumple y es entretenida tiene 2 grandes defectos: 1. Nunca intenta ser creíble o que el espectador la tome como una historia real, cosa que en este genero siempre es importante. Y 2. Si bien abarca muchas cosas las explica muy poco o bastante a medias, por lo cual si pestañas es muy probable que no se entienda lo que esta pasando (incluso si prestas atención también). Parece de poco presupuesto pero cumple muy bien visualmente (sobre todo con el chupacabras, el juego con las sombras logra hacerlo bastante real), las actuaciones están correctas y no desentonan con lo que esta pasando. No la mejor del genero pero en un top 20 entra seguro. See more A.L.Jude P @judebd 01/09/2024 At the end what a wasted time to prove fantasy ? See more 04/18/2021 ) I would have preferred some military grade no nonsense investigation. Instead it is more like a corny ghost hunter type show. So, if you like those shows with all the "Did you hear that?", "Do you feel that?", "What is that?" with people pretending they are on Mission Impossible, you will like this show. See more 12/24/2020 I had high hopes. I like the paranormal, I like aliens, I like mystery, and I like found footage style films, especially when they're largely still shot, as a "dockumentary", or as someone attempting to film one. A few of the actors are perfectly fine, but a few, including the shaggy red/brown haired doofus who's behind the dockumentary efforts, are just BRUTAL. He's especially awful. Sadly the story of a Son who suddenly vanishes, in front of his parent's eyes, in broad daylight, only to be investigated by this dipshit and his team never really amounts to much more than a lot of nonsensical actions, some really big dog/wolf things, a LOT of bright flashes of light, and nothing else.
