There is not one good comment i can say about this movie. Just watch the trailer, it says all that needs to be said about this train wreck. I've seen better youtube skits with amateurs that have more acting skills than whomever is in this "novelty". It just plain out SUCKS!! I'd give it two fat thumbs down ONLY because I only have two hands. I'd give it less than 1 star if the scale went in a negative direction. Don't waste your time and if you do, don't say you weren't warned. Actually, if you want to torture someone that breaks into your home and you physically catch them to hold for the police, make them watch this. They will be begging to be arrested.

Not real ghosts but something else

River of Ghosts has a misleading title that will certainly disappoint horror fans, because as you watch the film, you will find that it's not a horror but something psychological and deeper. Jules East's quirky way of telling the story brings in one by one of unexpected elements, a mythical creature that comes out of the river, a tornado in the house and a ghost? Just to lead us through an otherwise plain plot- a murder by the river out of an affair. Conner Floyd's acting leaves much room to bring out the melancholy and contemplative hypnosis doctor at first, however, by taking matters into his own hands, surprisingly he helps to unearth and solve the case. The idea of hypnosis to bring Brian back to what has happened by the river weaves well with the method of showing a reverse flow of the river back to where the incident happened that day by the riverbank. A memory that is too painful to bear for Brian, hence it keeps haunting him due to his attempt to suppress it. By hypnosis, going back against the flowing river, Dr. Halton forces Brian to remember what happened that day, unfortunately that didn't work, instead, Dr. Halton found the truth through the hypnosis of another guy in town, Larry, a city auditor, who had an affair behind his wife's back. River of Ghosts is a highly unexpected film, as it will go against your expectation and anticipation. If you expect horror, expect a let down. If you think there's real ghosts by the river, think twice. I'm pretty sure Jules meant for the "ghosts" to be the shadow aspects in the town folks' psyche, a web of five persons' drama which caused a death by the river.

This movie, and I use the term loosely, is the result of someone who neither can write nor direct but thought they could do both.It is another nail in the coffin that is Hollywood.Where to begin; story ands writing could have been done better had our "I can do everything" writer used ChatGPT instead. It is a terrible script and a sad story if you can stomach it.Directing, ok... What directing? Are you for real man, you wrote lines and scenes that you then thought you would direct and all you did was push this wreck of a film over Niagara falls and onto the rocks. Its painful to watch man.Acting, no comment, waste of words.There is a reason why writers should only write, actors should only act and directors should only direct. Even Megapolis with its 125 Million dollar budget bombed because our director thought he could write and then directed what he thought was a good story and script.Cannot be done. Stick to one thing and do it well.
