The Accursed (2022)

Everything and the kitchen sink

Warning: Spoilers
This movie was absolutely awful and made zero sense.

When it opens up it seems kind of promising - a woman is visiting someone who appears to be a witch and asking for a curse and in reality she puts a curse on the witch for something she did against her husband. She has her mute daughter with her.

And we get credits, then we see two young women going through an old house cleaning it out and apparently the mother of one of the women died.

There's a song. That's supposed to be significant, but we never really find out why other than, I guess, the mother used to sing the song to her daughter.

The young woman gets a phone call and she's supposed to go to some creepy house out in the woods to take care of a woman.

Now, unless I miss something, I have no idea if this is the adult of the little girl that was at the witch's House and the woman that was her mother is the one who has died.

Oh, you really don't know who they are or what the connection is or if they are the same person because you don't know how much time has passed.

Skip to the woman's house and of course creepy things happen they cover the fact that she's not using a cell phone the landline doesn't work and... A bunch of people die.

The End

Apparently the young woman's mother put a curse on her own daughter in order to put a curse on the dad who left her with for another woman.

The people that we saw at the beginning of the movie they're still around - it's two separate people and I don't know what their story is although it appears everybody's having problems with husbands that stray.

I think the old woman, who's also the witch has died and her crazy daughter is trying to bring her back by luring the young woman to the house because her mom owes them for the first curse that she put on the mom and really didn't go on her husband and that's what she used her daughter for.

Oh there's also apples in the movie; we don't know what the significance is with apples but I'm going to assume that the writer saw scary apples in another movie and thought apples are scary, so let's put that in the movie, too.

The acting is absolutely horrifying which I think is the only horrifying thing about this movie. Basically our main character just stands around looking dumb with her mouth hanging open instead of screaming, running, trying to escape, or fighting for her life. Nope, she just stands around staring.

Absolutely nothing makes any sense or is coherent or related to each other it's just a series of events and a bunch of No Name actors who cannot act.

Mena and Meg did not age well. Reminding you that a bunch of time has passed and that is also horrifying!
