I watched this movie yesterday, thinking it was a new part of the Land / Diary / Survival Of The Dead that I somehow missed... Yes, that's right... Anyway, after the first 2 minutes I knew it was NOT what I thought it will be. But I kept watching - sadly.

I wouldn't say that I regret watching it. I think it somehow will lower my expectation for a few next horror films. Therefore it still has a positive aspect, but that's really the only one.

I think the simplest way to explain is this: There's sunny weather and the next day it's cloudy, you'll say: Man, the weather sucks tomorrow." But if it's rainy and the next day it's cloudy, you'll say: "Aaah nice, at least no more rain!!" The movie would represent a blizzard in that scenario.

---- Due to the fact that you can't even make fun of it, I rate that movie lower than other really bad movies like sand sharks, sharknado, bigfoot,.. at least they had it's funny moments...

"The Wretched" from 2008 is being recycled through Redbox/Amazon as a 2014 film "Fields of the Dead." A group of college kids working on a "Thesis Project" camp out on some haunted land. They find a book as one in the party become a possessed killer with a slight twist that didn't make any sense nor did the diary and its connection to anything. They tried to cram too much into the background.

What was good was the characters and the occasional campy dialog. In the beginning I had to laugh at the song lyrics..."Baby I wrote this song for you, just you." It was fairy lame, but the girl considered it sweet that he wrote a song for her.

The film also had a funny pot scene.At some point the dialog hit a rut and the rest of the film didn't have enough punch to carry it through. Too many slow scenes.

Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity (Michelle Schrage, Wendy Iske ?, Sarah Wald-back shower tease)

I won that film for wearing a good costume on a Halloween fancy dress night at a pub. I would not recommend this film and think it should be discontinued. If you are interested in seeing it by all means borrow it from someone who has it already but don't waste your money on purchasing it. Worse than Nightmare on Elm Street I'd say which is quite old now, that involves people getting killed by some demon but in the end turns out to be a bad dream and everyone is alive and well. It's pretty unclear how Fields of the Dead ends, one of the survivors discovers something but I don't know what exactly. It would be better if the film continued where the mystery is solved and reversed.
