The problem with weird movies is that they are just weird, pointless, meaningless, can't be understood and the characters are behaving and speaking in an unexplained manner. Now add to this recipe a mindless and pointless plot together with bad acting and you get an spoiled stew that leaves you with a bad taste and the feeling the the joke was on you and you are the victim of this movie. It wasn't as bad as other movies I've watched such as Fearless (the worst ever) but it was just plain bad. No plot. No logic. No explanation and no scare or horror at all. If you want better horror - go watch 60 Minutes or CNN.....

Right, well I wasn't really sure what I was getting into here when I sat down to watch the 2019 movie "Motel Acacia", except for it being a horror movie. And being an avid fan of the horror genre, of course I sat down to watch this movie, as I hadn't already seen it. Turns out that I might have skipped on it, because this movie was not good. In fact, it was so lacking in entertainment value that I really don't fully understand the purpose of the storyline. It was just a mess of a storyline, especially because nothing was properly explained or revealed. Especially the setting of the movie made absolutely no sense to me. Where in the world was this supposed to be taking place? I just couldn't grasp that, and it just added to the confusion of an already befuddled storyline. The acting in the movie, however, was adequate at least. But that hardly mattered, because the movie was so weighed down by a dubious and questionable storyline and script. Visually then "Motel Acacia" was actually quite good. The effects were rather nice for a movie such as this. And I will say that the creature designs were definitely nice. But again, the special effects and CGI team could only muster so little to make amends for the movie's massive shortcomings. All in all, "Motel Acacia" is not worth the time or effort, much less the money. I am rating it a generous three out of ten stars - mostly because of the visuals and acting. I managed to sit through the entire movie, but this is not a movie that I will ever be returning to for a second viewing.

A creature is kept in an underground bunker facility with a motel cabin as a front. JC (JC Santos) is being groomed to take care of the creature which consumes illegal immigrants. He does not want the job and after the first victim looks to get out. He ends up in the bunker with a group of immigrants trapped by a snow storm. I didn't fully understand the situation. Were these people attempting to illegally go into the Philippines or Filipinos trying to illegally go into an unnamed country with lots of snow? Neither scenario seemed plausible. The effects were not too bad, but it needed a better story line. Guide: F-word. Sex. No nudity

Nothing in the movie. What is story line I did not understand till the end and that end I could manage myself to reach there anyhow. Very boring movie. Characters are weird. You can see ugliness at many situations. No logic no story all are waste. No horror, no thrill, confused end. Never see such boring movie.
