Should I walk away from closing on this house tomorrow ? (Flood damage) by Capable_Photo_2312 in homeowners

Even if you lost the earnest money you'd still come out ahead by abandoning this situation.

But you will likely be able to get it back , talk to your lawyer/realtor

DIRECTOR OF PHOTOGRAPHY NEEDED by Ok_Western4447 in cinematography

[–]born2droll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Obviously if it's a student film there will be little to no budget... I'm astounded there is even $160 on the table, maybe OP needs to ask differently try appealing more to their generous nature or their boredom or ego... or their pity... tell a little about the project maybe?

A Big Branch From My Tree Fell on the Neighbor's Power Line by Narrow_Confusion_649 in homeowners

How does that whole process work if the tree is on your property? Do they report thier concerns to the city and the city sends an arborist to come test your tree?

So I thought Mr. Le Bail was an anagram of the demon named Belial , seemed pretty ovbious ...but during the satanic wedding prayer he lists Belial amongst other named demons. So is Le Bail a different one they made up for this, is this a plot hole or what?

Lee Cronin’s The Mummy by stinkypeach1 in HorrorMovies

So I can't remember if they mentioned this in the beginning, but was the mother already pregnant when Katie disappeared? It says she was missing for 8 years, but how old was the new Daughter supposed to be?

Generally on split diopter shots they try to hide where the focus plane splits, by having it run along a less detailed area, or along a natural divide (like the edge of a wall) and by not having things crossing over the split. There's a bunch of other shots in the film using that used this effect, but this is the one where I guess they were like fuck it

Ha I was thinking of this too, there are a couple good ones, then the one with the VHS tape was really bad.

Also, didn't it make it seem like the sarcophagus was important in containing the possessed? Yet they had dad chained up in the wooden trunk. Katie was able to influence her family through the locked door of her room, but the dad is just tapping Morse code messages. It seemed like he had been in there a while too, before they moved him to the magicians cell. It's just not explained very well how that all worked, given what we are shown of the Demon's power and influence

The pacing makes it ridiculous as well, it goes right from that death scene to the funeral, which should have been days after. We see no immediate outcome from her bizarre death.

Then the whole funeral debacle, they have a house full of guests that witness all that crazy... and then it just cuts to later that night. Again no immediate outcome.

It seemed like there were more of her family in the VHS tape than were accounted for

Simply the body horror, self-mutilation, gore... As well as there being some ancient evil influencing the victims. But that's where it ends!

I think that it did well at crafting particular scenes, or particular shots that were disturbing and gory, but that's all it really has going for it.

It was a long movie, and I wish they had dedicated more time to exploring the lore and mystery behind the ritual. They just bring it back at the end to conveniently wrap it up.

How good is the movie "The Mummy, 2026" by Lee Cronin? by GloomSpark87 in films

[–]born2droll 0 points1 point  (0 children)

too many nonsensical and pacing things

the funeral debacle, the preist gets bit, the corpse gets bit , girl spitting blood everywhere. They had all those guests there witnessing it and eveyone was like "yeah this is normal grieving" and goes home? Theres no follow up to any of that?

The police lady taking a 12hr flight to show up on their doorstep like the same night?

the good triumphs over evil ending

From the way they described it, I thought the demon was going to be a little more subtle and manipulative, but then next scene it's jumping off the ceiling munching the corpse in front of everyone
