2012 Horror Fest: No Tell Motel: 29 Out Of 100 Stars

Dull, pedantic and silly, No Tell Motel starts off with a nice premise and devolves into boredom fairly quickly.

Five young adults, 3 of whom are hot chicks, end up stranded at an old abandoned, haunted hotel for the night. Sounds good right? Well that's where the good times end. The script has a solid base in that all five of the main characters have secrets that the motel forces them to face, unfortunately the more acting we get and the deeper the script gets, the less interesting the film becomes.

There's no nudity or titillation despite having three very hot female leads, which always annoys the hell out of me. There's not really any gore either, it's mostly just people always within 50 feet of each other who never know what anyone else is doing. Frustrating in it's laziness to get from point A to point B is how I'd describe it.

None of the characters connect at all, and the lead female borders on bad at worst, and boring at best. At times it almost feels like a Lifetime version of a horror movie.

No need to check in to this motel, there's nothing worth seeing.
