Entertaining in a lifetime TV movie kind of way - kind of silly, questionable acting. There are moments that are tinged with that distinctive Lucky McKee vibe but this is definitely not his best. Enjoyable enough if there's nothing else on, just don't take it too seriously.

No possible way that everyone was so incredibly stupid as to be so easily manipulated by so obviously a flake. The untrustworthy nature of Sadie's character was spelled out for all to see from the start. In order for dominoes of this story to work, the viewer must disregard too much reason. Sad, because the first half had the makings of an interesting story.

This was a very disappointing drama about the bonding of Aunt Sadie and her niece Nicole, who are apparently the kindred spirits of the film's title. In fact, however, Aunt Sadie is mentally ill, and her strange behavior goes undetected by those close to her until it is too late. At first, Aunt Sadie's behavior was simply bizarre, as she sought to emulate her niece to give the impression that they were sisters. But her motivation becomes clear when she wants Nicole entirely out of her life in order to receive the loving care of her sister Chloe exclusively. Aunt Sadie is successful in seducing Nicole's boyfriend Derek. But she then brutally murders Alex, the lover of Chloe. At this point, the film has moved into the horror genre. The grisly details of Alex's death were nauseating. A ghoulish chase through the forest culminates in the slashing of Derek's throat by Aunt Sadie, who tries to pin in the crime on Nicole. Aunt Sadie and Nicole both were prone to "famous temper tantrums." But it is clear that Nicole is much more balanced. But she is too slow in recognizing that she is being duped by her aunt. And, given the background that they were sisters, it was curious that Chloe never recognized that Sadie has never grown up, was suffering from infantile dysfunction, and desperately needed help. Instead, Chloe casually allows her sibling to drive a wedge between her and her daughter. A visual metaphor in the film was the large toy house in which Aunt Sadie engaged in a ritual of communing with an idealized family. The dramatist Edward Albee used this image more successfully in his play "Tiny Alice." In the case of this morbid film, it is only the savvy police, who perform an investigation and become the first ones to conclude that Sadie and her niece were not wedded at the hip because the auntie was a documented case of being "fruit loops."

Great watch, could watch again, and can recommend. This is a great realistic psychological thriller. You literally get to watch Caitlin Stasey carry the movie as a woman slowly showing that she's going crazy. Honestly, with level of acting she displays in this, I'm honestly confused why she isn't as big as her co-star, Thora Birch, who feels incredibly under utilized. Though, this is the first time I've seen her able and playing a "mom type" character. While Stasey clearly carries the movie, Sasha Frolova does her fair share of work as well. The story itself is pretty average, but there is just enough production value put into it, and the idea is executed so well that it feels like excellent writing. To be fair, it did take quite a bit of talent to write the webs of lies weaved in the story. The level of sociopathy displayed is amazing. It's a great movie from a psychological perspective, and I'm sure if you like "social drama" or suspense, then you'll like this one.

This movie was extremely well done. It's starts slow and builds beautifully with an incredible pace. The acting is top notch. The directing is masterful. The music is Bernard Hermannesque. Worth a watch.

Right, well I wasn't expecting "Kindred Spirits" to be the kind of movie that it turned out to be. I saw that it was a mystery horror/thriller, so of course I was interested in watching it. But the movie was more of a drama thriller, I think. Not really much of a mystery in the movie, nor were there any proper elements of horror. Now, don't get me wrong, because that does not mean that "Kindred Spirits" was a bad movie. Actually it turned out to be an entertaining enough movie and one that definitely was surprising. The storyline in "Kindred Spirits", as written by Chris Sivertson and directed by Lucky McKee, started out adequately enough, but it quickly took a turn for the more odd and somewhat disturbing. And that twist to the plot and storyline was something that I enjoyed, and it made for a good movie in my opinion. "Kindred Spirits" has some good acting performances by the casted actors and actresses, but especially Caitlin Stasey stands out as being the most memorable of the cast, and she really carried the movie a great way with her individual performance. When you sit down to watch "Kindred Spirits", keep in mind that this is not a run-of-the-mill horror movie, so you shouldn't be expecting a proper horror movie. However, sit down to watch the movie with the intention of watching a movie with a storyline that is somewhat offbeat and disturbing. My rating of "Kindred Spirits" lands on a six out of ten stars. I was genuinely surprised with this movie and I was most definitely entertained by the movie.

This story is what is referred to, as a "guilty pleasure", or a guilty waste of time. It's a silly, emotionally-manipulative waste of time, which starts out fairly good and degenerates into more and more "wacko", as it goes along. The crazy plot keeps your inner "bad news junkie" salivating, even though you know, you're being taken for a ride,"over the top". Near the end, I actually thought, that it was going to go off formula, which surprised me, but it was just a tease. It actually went back to the expected script, amazingly, in a most awkward and unexplained manner.

Honestly that wasn't good. In some ways it was and maybe the problem was more was needed of things to make this more interesting. The scene where the woman with the mask on and the guy was trying was too cringe - I mean just no. The creators director cast etc might as well pack it in now.
