LONG TIME DEAD
Cast: Joe Absolom, Lara Belmont, Melanie Gutteridge
Rating: MA15+ for Medium Level Violence Tagline: Play It To Death. Theatrical Release: September 5, 2002 Retail Release: April 16, 2004 BOX OFFICE: The film was released on a minimum wide 81 screens and debuted to a horrible $139,238. It only ended up with $271,004. British horror never fares well here, and the fact that this never had a big marketing campaign also helped it fade into obscurity.

Plot Synopsis, Review
A group of friends on a night out decide to do an Ouija board, but unexpectedly
let out an evil spirit who starts picking them off one-by-one.
I've always hated British films. The British accent really irritates me when it's
really strong, and this film is no exception, and the accents weren't the only
thing in the film to annoy me. It was boring, predictable and just very vague. I
found myself looking at the time waiting and waiting for it to end. There was
not an interesting moment in the flick and why Universal put this in cinemas in
beyond me.
The plot is simple and unoriginal, and whilst it's the perfect
premise for a horror flick, there could've been so many ways for the film to
expand the plot for some interesting scenes but is just stuck to a generic
plot.
The acting was horrible. I really cannot stand heavy British
accents and it just ruins acting for me.
Overall Long Time Dead is a
generic boring wannabe slasher film thats leaves the viewer bored. My rating is
2/5
