Where do I start? Frankly, I'm angry at myself for not reading reviews first before paying my money to go see this abomination. Have you ever seen a movie so bad that you thought you're being punked and at any moment someone's going to step from behind the screen and say: gotcha!! Well multiply that feeling by ten. Ohh man, this film sucks. Holy sh*t it sucks so bad my cousin dozed off during the first ten minutes. I was like: let him sleep to avoid the torture I was going through. The characters - I don't think you can call them that - are so naive, so one dimensional, so stupid, you'd wanna throw up when they speak. The plot - if ever there was one - is so faulty, so bad, so bland, so utterly dumb that your IQ score will drop dramatically after seeing this film. If you value your money, do not pay to see this insult to your intelligence. Midway through the movie, I woke my cousin up, gave a big middle finger to the cinema screen, and went the f$%k home. My cousin asked me what the movie was like. I replied: TORTURE.

Starts off with some plausible story telling then goes down ill rather quickly. The family hire a marine to rescue their boy from murderous cult. We are lead to believe from the marines tattoos that he may have has some prior affiliation with the cult, however he must have been a marine in teletubby LA LA LAND.. because the MARINE seems to have forgot all his basic combat training! Dad and marine take CULT FOLLOWER to the cabin in the woods for de programming with the help of his family. With no plans for the future at all. I'm no trained marine but even I know if you rescue a person from a cult they will try to get that person back. Whilst Marine is rescuing the boy from the cult I'd have been back home making sure the cabin was fortified and there were weapons hidden around the outside ready to help later. Also say let a family member know if you have not called an outside member of family by says 17:00hrs they automatically call police and tell them cult has invaded... FILM LOST THE PLOT, how did they give the director money to make this......so may plot holes it GAPING GILL.. Rule one if you rescue some one from a cult don't take the said person to a cabin he new as a child.. you take him/her to some where neutral the person and family don't know that way the cult have no way of knowing from prior memories from the disciple where he would be going etc. So why didn't the GI JOE have the cabin in the woods protected or have perimeter booby trapped for when the cult turned up. Not to mention wouldn't a GI JOE have other merc's/marines to watch his "SIX" to help him! Then we have a family that have no form of common sense.. they kill cult intruders one by one and go out of their minds not knowing what to do and all they do is chat about giving the brother/son back to the cult. Now if it was me they have three dead cult members/people in the house, work the maths out - they could have taken some clothes off the cult who were dead put their masks and walked out the front and back dressed as members of the cult. Now I can guarantee that would not have only confused the CULT but would have got more people dead than the father going out to try and rescue his wife or son and resulting in father being stabbed to death. other thing is they could have dressed one of the cult dead up in the lads clothing who they rescued. Then slashed the dead cults persons face slung him out side and burnt him in front of the cabin. The cult for a few minutes would have thought the family had gone nuts and terminated the lad because the cult was hell bent on murder. That small window of opportunity might have been enough to have got to the FATHER of THE CULT/CULT LEADER and tried killing him before he worked his way through the family. End out come with a murderous cult will always be all people DEAD no matter what so what do you do.. button down the hatches and wait for intrusion and kill the cluster one by one, or take things under control and work a plan that's just as gross and murderous as the cult would have done.. Like I said all a little lack lustre.... it loses depth and any thought of semblance as soon as they get to the cabin with a GI JOE Marine that has no back up plan when we all know Marines always have a back up. I gave it 3 out of 10 and that was because I enjoyed the sound track which was the best part of the film. I hope the director filled the lottery ticket in - he hoodwinked some one out of a lot of money to do this... lol

Kevin Greutert, the editor behind Saw (2004) and later directed two entries of that particular franchise is back with a new horror. Immediately you think this would or could be the next Saw but it isn't. It stands on it's own, no open ending at all. The story is simple, save your child from a cult only to be terrorised from that cult to get the son back. Is it that bad as some might say. Well, it takes a while before things go wrong, to be exactly 38 minutes before the terror comes in and that's almost half the flick (10 minutes credits). Once the cult is back the attacks shown aren't that bad done anyway. There are even a few gory shots here and there but for me there wasn't anything scary at all or the cult even didn't frighten me. They do wear masks but they are just standing there and some do attack and kill or being killed and that's it. I found Don't Breathe (2017) more scary and a pure horror for example. here it's also about home invasion but somehow it didn't work out to make it creepy at all. Still, for those who like torture and brutality it's worth picking up to see the nastiness of the torture or killings. Gore 1/5 Nudity 0/5 Effects 3/5 Story 2/5 Comedy 0/5

Its not that bad.. I didn't like the characters and the stupid choices, but that happens in 90% of the horror movies. What you gonna do when they re about to kill your family? and you know you have already lost. The cult didn't want to just break in and kill everybody, they played with them, thats what sick crazy killers do, i would do the same if i was in there. They send them in one by one maybe to test the new members OK its not an original plot, its average, but i enjoyed seeing it. it deserves a 5or6.

Long story short : -no scenario worst acting ever (you want to punch the face of the main character...) end is so bad that you want a payoff for wasting that much your time. Im serious, its just a bad climax of some home invasion, with no explanation at all...

*May Contain Spoilers* After watching Jackals, the first thing that came to mind was that overall, it's a decent movie. It doesn't set out to win any awards, and the movie makes that evident right away. After an interesting intro that seems to have nothing to do with the rest of the story, the film starts off fast and leaves the exposition for later on. Coming from a director of two of the seven Saw films, this movie was rather tame in the gore field, which gets no complaints from me. After an easily better first two acts, the film decides to go with a predictable ending in the third act, although I will give it points for taking a road I hadn't thought of until it happened. It still reaches the same generic conclusion most slasher films decide to take, but it changed some of the minor details of that ending trope. When the credits began to roll, I didn't feel cheated of my time. Quite the opposite, I was actually left wanting a little more. Jackals is a movie that you sit down and watch with nothing but the expectation of being entertained. It doesn't deserve all the bad ratings, but it doesn't earn top marks either. So if you want to watch Jackals, go in with the expectation of being mildly entertained and you'll come out as such. If you're a slasher/home invasion lover, (or just a horror buff in general), this film is definitely worth a watch. It may not be very memorable, but in the end it is entertaining.

It often happens that the directors stand in the place of the editors, and also the editors become directors. So it happened with Kevin Grotert, the same person who mounted all the beloved "Saw" as a "Game of Survival", and several subsequent films. But, unlike the first "Saw", in the projects "Saw 3D" and "Saw 6" Kevin acted as a director. In addition, he withdrew the "Jezabel" and the same horror "Visions" with Jim Parsons. The story of the "Jackals" or, as decided (cruel and merciless) Russian hire "Circles of the Devil" tells of a family who has gone to a small house in the middle of the forest to get his son out of the sect. The theme of the story is reminiscent of "Strangers", "You are the End!" And of course "The Last Expulsion of the Devil", but here is a much simpler concept, during which we watch an hour and a half as a guy tied to a chair sits and depicts an obsession. From the positive aspects of the film I can highlight the realistic game of Ben Sullivan and Stephen Dorff, who literally decorated the picture with his presence. As soon as it becomes smaller in the frame, the film ceases to be interesting. Even beautifully shot scenes, with a chilling blue color that enveloped the backyard and killers in masks, does not save this mediocre story. "We need children ..." - may be needed, but only in this desire there is absolutely no drama, nothing that would catch the viewer. The killers copied from "Strangers" do not have their own character, they are only a murder weapon, whose story is not interesting to learn. "Jackals" or, excuse me, "Circles of the Devil" - an unfinished project that looks once, and then safely forgotten.

What kind of world we are living in. Are there that many stupid people? People with no sense of entertainment, or no real basic intelligence? This was clearly an entertaining movie that captures you right from the beginning and holds on, throughout. It came on t.v. the other day and I sat and watched the whole thing, again (rented it on redbox the first time). My only question is will they make a sequel, because I hope they do. Who are these people who give such negative and misleading reviews to a good and entertaining movie. Are they just pure pseudo-intellectuals who have no common sense? Are they upside down people who don't even know who they are? lol. Seems like we are getting fuller and fuller of these kinds of people, and it's a real shame.
