I want to give this movie credit right out the gate for doing something not a lot of supernatural movies of this type do: They show you its a ghost right out the gate AND all of the characters approach it as such. They don't string you along needlessly, just get right to the ghost stuff which is what most people want when searching the garbage bin that is direct to stream. With that said, the acting wavers between respectable and terrible to the point that you are sure the actors just woke up and are reading from cue cards. The movie has a number of plot holes. Per example when they lure Eric to their home, how does he not remember that his family used to live here? Doesn't Tyler say he inherited the home from a family member? I get how the police excuse the first death in the home, but how the second? In the end I would give this movie a thumbs up because in its silliness it can possibly keep your attention and entertain you.

Do like horror, have never had any bias against it regardless of how some of my reviews come across (although it is always made very clear of that being the case),and do have a thing for halfway decent concepts (often one of my main reasons for watching something). Something that the concept for 'Ghostline' was, although it also could have gone either way in execution. Either it could have been spooky, or it could have been ridiculous.

'Ghostline', when it appeared in my more like this section, turned out to belong in the latter category. As well as being cheap and dull, don't think unintentional humour as something positive watching film, television etc. Everything a horror film should preferably not be. Worse films exist and there are far bigger wastes of potential, but 'Ghostline' is one of those films where very little works.

Actually consider it very much to be nearly at beyond redemption level, but an eerie setting elevates things a little, sadly though not by much.

That is wasted though by photography that looks cheap and is very limited and repetitive in techniques used. The lighting can be too dim and the sound is intrusive and obvious. There is very little momentum in the direction, which more often than not plods badly and fails completely in building any suspense. The script is awkward, characterless and full of unintentional humour.

Very little story here in 'Ghostline' as well. What there is very dull, very predictable, insultingly far-fetched and completely lacking in suspense or sense. Felt absolutely nothing for the characters, other than annoyance, there is no sense of fun or jeopardy and the acting is worse than what you find at kindergarten.

Overall, could have been mildly interesting but near-ineptly executed. 2/10

GHOSTLINE is a character-focused indie horror drama which delves into the psycho-thriller genre on occasion. The lack of incident hurts it a bit and there's really only one horrible scene in the whole thing, but I found the quality of the acting a little better than the very lowest of the low and the whole thing is slightly slicker than the worst of the worst. That doesn't make it good, however.
