Amateurish writing and a weird premise make this film one to avoid

Where do I begin with a film like this? Let's start with the Pros: There is solid cinematography on display here, far better quality than this film deserves.That's about it.Now for the Cons: First off, this film has some of the worst writing I've seen this side of a Neil Breen film. Characters say what they're thinking with almost no subtext whatsoever. Weird attempts at humor pop up out of nowhere and make the scenes feel like a series of loosely connected SNL skits. Subplots are brought up and then either dropped immediately, or ham-fistedly woven back into the script at the last second. It honestly seemed as though the writer/director had a handful of different films he wanted to make and rather than choose the best out of the bunch, he just decided to throw them all together into one stupid gumbo of a movie.Secondly, the acting is mostly community theater level bad. KateLynn Newberry gives probably the best performance of the lot, but the bar is so low here, that's not saying much. The lead and the sheriff are both quite wooden and their subplot mostly amounts to nothing.The creature effects are pretty forgettable. You can really tell there was a limited budget here. Everyone else seems to rave about the practical effects, but there was really nothing special about them. And aside from a limb getting amputated in the first five minutes, there's very little in the way of bloodshed, considering this is supposed to be a horror/thriller film.Jumping back to the Neil Breen comparison, this film -- like Breen's -- has a lot it wants to say about justice and morality, but it doesn't know how or when to say it. In fact, like many bad movie before it, 'Replicator' seems to preach the same tired sermon of "bad people are bad" and "elected officials are corrupt, but they really shouldn't be." It's cheap, uninspired, childish writing and there's really no excuse for it.Bottom line: This is a terrible, awkwardly paced and utterly forgettable film with high school level writing, zero heart, bad acting, awkward staging, budget effects, and a central idea that just doesn't work. With the exception of some good looking cinematography, this film flounders in every possible way.While some films are so bad, they're good, this film is so bad that it's just bad.Save your money and watch a Breen film instead. At least it'll be entertaining.

Bad... but go ahead whether you don't worry about wasting your time.

Just bad! Do not waste your time watching this movie. It's a piece of something hard even to explain... pieces of a kindergarten puzzle all over the place... could be considered a good trash B movie but there is something wrong in the beginning where it is not right. Just watched today because I ended up missing my tv controller button and "voila" lol... here I go .. I did forward many times and still didn't have any happy/funny/sad/curious. Please don't take me wrong. You always have control over your time and attention. Go ahead! Watch and try to make a review here with the minimum requirements content ....it is very difficult and almost impossible. This film is so bad that it is very hard to say anything else... You will see a bunch people that it is just there to get paid. But once again... Im just writing a long review because I don't have any option.

Watchable...

I was initially lured into watching the 2024 horror movie "Replicator" from the movie's rather interesting cover. It looked rather Lovecraftian, and I am a sucker for that. Plus, the fact that it was a horror movie that I had neither heard about or watched before, certainly helped to make me want to watch it. Sure, since I had no idea what I was in for, then I harbored no expectations to director Mark Andrew Hamer, so in a sense he had every opportunity to entertain and impress me, I suppose.Writers Mark Andrew Hamer and Russ Lindway put together a fair enough script. I mean, it wasn't particularly outstanding, but it made for a sort of adequate enough viewing experience. Though it is hardly a movie that warrants more than a single viewing.I was not familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, aside from actor LeJon Woods, though I will say that the acting performances were indeed fair.While the movie's cover certainly had a particularly Lovecraftian feel to it, if you think back to Brian Yuzna's "From Beyond", for example, I have to say that the movie was only laced with some light Lovecraftian elements. A shame really.The effects in the movie were good, and that certainly helped to add to the overall enjoyment of the movie.My rating of director Mark Andrew Hamer's 2024 movie "Replicator" lands on a four out of ten stars.
