The Truth starring John Heard, Erin Cardillo, Brendan Sexton III, Daniel Baldwin, Carter MacIntyre and Erica Shaffer. Spoilers: Seriously, do you think Carter MacIntyre will grow up to look like John Heard?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Wow, this was a terribly boring experience that required the assistance of the fast forward button.<\/p>\n

It is difficult to create a thrilling experience with a small budget and you have to rely on the actors, story and the atmosphere more. Unfortunately, when you have uninteresting characters, awful dialogues and a boring villain, the movie keeps dragging on.<\/p>\n

The plot :<\/strong><\/p>\n

Jonathan Davenport (John Heard) is a well-off, older guy married to the young and beautiful Dana (Erin Cardillo). Their relationship seems to be OK- that\u2019s until a guy (Brendan Sexton III) breaks into their house, ties them up and tortures them a little. He wants money, of course. But there seems to be a lot of things off about him and the situation and maybe he knows the residents somehow. We also get to see his childhood in flashbacks- when his mother (Erica Shaffer) was having an affair with a guy (Carter MacIntyre), he knew about it and what happens when his dad (Daniel Baldwin) finds out. While the flashbacks reasonably explain why our \u201cvillain\u201d is a \u201clittle\u201d deranged. And the twists are just so out there…<\/p>\n

The verdict:<\/strong><\/p>\n

Just don’t watch it. I wanted to see this one to see if this could be one those exciting low-budget thrillers. It wasn\u2019t. If you also enjoy modest thrillers that rely on the actors and the story rather than effects but actually pulls the concept off, try these: 6 Solid Films with Low Budgets and Enclosed Locations Featuring Uma Thurman, Colin Farrell and Timothy Hutton<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
