13 Nights of Halloween: Night #8: Unrest

Tonight we delve into the horrors from After Dark Films with their
movie "Unrest". After Dark Films is the one responsible for the 8 Films to Die For that was a part of the annual independent horror film festival Horrorfest. Here's a little hint, there's another one of these eight horror movies yet to come. Tonight though, we have something that's a bit different, somewhat unique. That is a really hard thing to find any more, but once you've seen this movie I think you will agree. What is this new thing? Where other recent horror movies involve elements of the current trend toward reality television, this one involves elements of popular crime shows like CSI.

One thing I do want to point out about "Unrest" is something that cropped up in the trailers. The trailer claims that there are real corpses in this movie. I can't say one way or another if there is but it was filmed in a real morgue. I didn't know what to make of this before seeing the movie because sometimes films will do improper things, but rest assured I saw nothing untoward or troubling. The corpse that the story revolves around isn't real because it would take some doing to find the perfect specimen, and one that would look like the live actress in the flashbacks. That out of the way, the movie is interesting, different as I said, and I was greatly pleased with buying it.
