The Resort’s straightforwardness seems to free up its goofier side, starting with the performances.

This inane horror movie is so ludicrously cliche-ridden one starts to wonder if it's not some kind of sophisticated meta-joke being played on us.

The direction for the actors is aimless, scattered, and hollow. They mouth inaudible things to each other while another character is talking, distract when they are supposed to be in the background, and lack any sort of chemistry.

The Resort offers a fright-filled mini-break, but ultimately fails to deliver a truly memorable time. Do not expect a glowing review on TripAdvisor!

1.5/5

It’s hamstrung by a tiny budget and hampered by a script that doesn’t have enough ideas of its own to fill the movie’s lean 70-minute running time.

Save for a couple instances of ooey-gooey practical makeup FX, the film fails on every level.

Corny acting & looked totally fake. We took our 11 year old niece to it & she thought it was terrible.

Didnt these guys check their work? Editing left in snippets where Lex speaks but theres no audio, and it happened multiple times in a few minutes! The ending was abrupt and felt thrown together when a deadline was imminent.

I was hoping this would be bad enough to be funny, but boy was I wrong. Script seemed poorly written and dialogue felt forced and inauthentic. There would be some redemption if it were scary, but I feel comfortable sleeping with all the lights off, and may sleep better after having watched this.

The acting was mediocre at best and the special effects was so bad, you could tell it was fake and low effort. The trailer looked like an actual good horror movie instead of something that looks like it was filmed for YouTube
