What happened?
lovedml21 May 2019
Can someone please explain this movie to me? I know it was trying hard to be clever but just a confusing hodgepodge.

A really bad ghost story
ericdhall779 September 2019
This was a slow burn. It's by all means a ghost story. Several holes in the script. No back story. It's like watching paint dry but, you have popcorn to eat while doing so. It's not entertaining but it somehow makes you want to watch.

Good for a rainy day or you just need to kill time.

Slow and unremarkable
Mayorbob-278-77030219 April 2019
Okay, so we get the idea that the protagonists are living some sort of hallucinatory fantasy about true love can get you through the final barrier between truth and falsehood and how we are all haunted about decision made or not made in life. I think the writer has some talent, certainly more than the actors do. I mark this as 80+ minutes of my life I can't get back. And that is the true haunting horror of this flick.

By the way, I noticed during the credits crawl that one the people whose pictures are displayed on the "Wall of Champions" included a Kristen Welker. One question I would like to have answered is was this Kristen Welker from NBC News; the reporter who's a regular contributor to the various MSNBC cable shows?

MAJOR SNOREFEST, watch something else
beebeedoo19 August 2019
Warning: Spoilers
Recorded this on D V R in case I had to fast-forward some parts. Jeez, I actually dozed off a few times so I actually had to rewind. With the exception Colm Feore, this story was just too out there. Not compelling, not scary, no emotional connections, whatsoever, just bad. The main girl was just a wreck of a character; what was with the killing of the kids? So, I kept waiting for some big moment. None came, and at the end when you finally find out the back story, I immediately hit "erase" on my clicker.

Don't waste your time
richmonddl12 April 2019
This movie is utter crap. Not one like able character except, maybe, the sidekick friend. I wanted to smack the lead actress for being so co dependant on that jerk of a boyfriend. Overact much? The props,, wow,,, the "burned " parts of the school looked like someone took spray paint to try to mimic burns,,, it did not work. I honestly can't believe this film was up for any awards, maybe they felt sorry for them.

So confused
krazychik18 April 2019
The few times I enjoyed the movie are so outweighed by my confusion. What video? Did she jump? Are there twins? OMG WTF? Glad it was free.

Magnanimously Terrible
phillipsenter1 June 2019
Every minute of life is precious and every how many minutes long this movie, is those precious minutes lost forever. I will admit I watched the whole movie, I kept hoping it would somehow climb out of the abysmal pit it was sinking into. The only way I can explain any awards this movie received is the everyone gets a trophy mentality. By all means, watch the movie, but it just gets worse the longer you watch. Don't say you weren't warned.

Like a bad dream I couldn't wake from.
slgooding16 September 2019
How did this even? I'm not sure why I couldn't turn it off, but I'm positive it was not because it was any good.. just my addiction to watching movies. Simply awful.

Wow. Just wow.
tomatoegirl-243236 March 2021
Warning: Spoilers
I'm unsure where to begin with this review. Everfall is like an aspiring high school playwright finally got their shot at the big leagues...and failed. All budget must have been used on the "burnt at the stake" scene with Eva since the charred set design consisted of black spray paint and an overall laser tag room feel. I can honestly say that I hated every character in this movie except for the best friend Jordan who of course died first. The best part of this movie was the last 30 seconds where we come to realize Eva will now skate eternally in death and her wad of a boyfriend Daniel of "The Daniel Show" is forced to be one of the only spectators in the audience. This movie lacked any and all plot and rarely had anything to do with ice skating even though it's advertised as an ice skating horror movie. I particularly enjoyed when Eva swan dived off the roof, however you could not pay me to sit through this atrocity again. 0/10 would not recommend.

Very cleaver. Pay attention!
magilles-8091115 May 2019
This is a very clevert put together film. It is nice to see a smart horror that doesn't beat you over the head with unnecessary gore. Great performances and great direction. This film is definitely worth the watch. Do your self a favour, put away your phone and pay attention!

Watchable and interesting up until the last few minutes
jrneptune17 May 2019
Took the gamble of watching it since this platform can be notorious for low reviews.

I did not find it slow and it kept my interest as to what would happen next. The Twist at the end explain a key issue in the story. After that in the last few minutes it went downhill. Without giving the story away lets just say one of the lead characters did something very improbable.

Not interesting enough to me to research more about it.

AWFUL!
boatrokr28 January 2020
AWFUL is enough to describe "Everfall." It fails as a horror movie, is almost-incoherent in pacing, and the special effects are lousy. It is not scary at all. The relationship between her parents is unconvincing and adds nothing to the plot.

The filmmakers obviously knew nothing about figure skating as well: "the Death Spiral, the most dangerous element in pair skating"!!!??? Death Spirals are NOT dangerous. LIFTS are the most dangerous moves in pair skating! Utterly ludicrous.

"Everfall" deserves to fall into the bad-movie pit for-ever!

Dreary & just plain DUMB
kjhott-7822812 March 2020
This is probably the worst movie I have ever seen. It's dreary, drippy, & just plain dumb. A complete waste of time.

Bloody Awful
njaye-2833721 June 2020
In two words, this movie is bloody awful. The plot has so many gaping holes to the point where not one person in a room of eight could tell me what it was even about at the end. The characters aren't just hard to like, they are so very easy to hate. The set design and special effects looked like something out of a zero-budget middle school project. My god, even the introductory credits were terrible. I spent the whole two hours of this movie hoping it would somehow climb out of the abysmal pit it dug for itself, but by the end of two hours I realized that I had just wasted my time. The only "horror" element this movie had was the fact that it just wouldn't end. It was like a bad dream I couldn't wake up from. I would bet good money that the only good reviews came from the cast's families. The only awards this could have possibly received were "worst movie of all time" or a participation trophy. Watching it was definitely some sort of experience, but not one I would recommend. Every minute of your life is precious. If you made it this far down my rant, please consider doing something else with 120 of those precious minutes.

YOU'RE GOING TO BE SO....
PriscillaLeona12 August 2020
DISSATISFIED, disappointed, dazed and confused at the end of this movie. I'm still wondering what the movie was all about. If you watch it, you're never going to know either. I gave it 2 stars because of the very beginning of the film...nice mountain scenery.

Omg! What did I watch
greenbayjex6 July 2022
Daniel of the Daniel show. What a self righteous douchebag. Eva was so stuck on him it's not healthy. I had a hard time understanding this movie. Until the end. But I wouldn't watch it again. It goes back on my watched movie pile never to see daylight again. Kinda like douchebag Daniel!!

Stuck in a haunted ice skating rink
Woodyanders18 May 2022
Warning: Spoilers
Eva (a sturdy and sympathy portrayal by Jessica McLeod) has her career as a competitive figure skater sidelined in the wake of a tragic accident.. Desperate for a comeback, Eva accepts an offer to work on her skill by participating in a competition in the small town of Everfall only to find herself trapped in a haunted ice skating rink.

Director/co-writer John Kissack relates the intricate and absorbing story at a steady pace, maintains a serious brooding tone throughout, and ably crafts a spooky mood along with an intriguing aura of mystery.

The sound acting by the capable cast rates as another substantial asset, with especially stand-out contributions by Joe Perry as cocky dare devil Daniel Hayes, Kristian Jackson as smitten camera guy Jordan, Colm Feore as the no-nonsense Coach Goodwin, Julie Orton as Eva's concerned mother Claire, Daryl King as practical arena manager Ashton Blackwell, and Maddie Dixon-Poirier as cute little girl Maxine. A neat little movie.
