Tormented Reviews
Tormented should have been better in all aspects: the story, the development of the story (if there is one?), the characters, the acting, the realism, the moral (the main point is understood from the beginning, uncontentious, and is not developed)... It's frustrating and boring.
Some of the most genuinely satisfying horror violence I've seen in recent memory. And I feel pretty morally justified in my satisfaction.

British teen slasher movie that doubles up as an American homage to the genre. Focusing on blood and gore Tormented sticks to the original, rigid recipe dished out in plenty years ago in America.
Cast performs well all things considered, but the script underwhelms and the plot brings nothing new to the table.
I liked a lot all the humor and funny moments in the movie. But it lacked a lot of horror elements, that felt in cliches. It had some gory scenes that were good, but the humor overshadowed it most of the times. If it had a lot more horror in it, it would've been better but overall it was a very fun movie.
(2%) A film highlighting one of the biggest problems with certain low-budget British cinema in that it lacks both ambition and ideas. The school "kids" are all clearly 24 which at least in American slasher films the students don't wear uniforms, but here they do and it just looks as if they are all going to a fancy dress party as the same theme, it's awful. The writing is dire, the characters are from another world as they behave and talk like no real human beings actually do, and the mix of American elements thrown in from time to time just doesn't work and only further hampers the already broken reality in which this is set. I wouldn't be at all surprised if the real kids from the school in which this was shot (clearly during summer break) couldn't make a better film themselves.
I don't know why I love this film so much! It's frankly hilarious when it needs to be and a great slasher flick nonetheless!
An anti-bullying horror-com that takes place in a British prep school. "Tormented works. The laughs are funny, and the flashbacks to Darren's caught-on-camera torture all too believable."
A so-so thriller about a spirit with a grudge against a group of college students who seem to be nothing more than narcissistic losers getting what they deserve.
Fat guy with puffer commits suicide over incessant bullying, comes back from the dead and gruesomely wastes his bullies. Darren Mullett, you are a hero.
Ugh! Can you get more unimaginative?! The film's message should be that the true "Tormented" ones are those who paid $10 for a ticket....
not only great horror movie but also shows the violence and intolerance between teenagers. great plot, great movie
quite enjoyed this. a bullied kid kills himself and comes back to haunt and kill those who bullied him. good on him i say. they deserved what they got. what goes around comes around!
This movie is a bit more on the unique side of high school slashers, but not so much in a good way. The camera work and editing stands out most to me, and it works in giving the movie an intense tone, but the problem with this film lies somewhere else. The acting is fine, the plot is basic but not bad... What's horrid is the character development and the dialogue. The characters are exaggerated to the point where I want to rip my hair out. All the comedy in this film falls flat, and the "Cool kids" "Bullies" "Emos" all do nothing but play a stereotypical role and ruin what could have been a decent film, had it been more down to earth.
A British slasher that never really convinces but at least it is somewhat tongue-in-cheek, and overuses the evil spirit corpse's on-screen time.
