Don't Speak (2015) Online

7 partying young people get stranded on a mysterious island seeking first aid. The less-than-helpful villagers only tell them, "Shhh!" The young people proceed to scream and holler.

Don't Speak has almost no redeeming qualities. This is not just direct-to-video, this is direct-to-Vimeo. However small the budget-- and it was small!-- DS wasted it. The acting is wooden and over-dramatic in turns. Even if that wasn't the case, the dialog is flat, awkward, not even functional. There's no building of suspense beyond the villagers' warnings, no foreshadowing, and even if there was, it wouldn't matter, because the characters are unlikable and nobody is going to care what trouble they get themselves into. The camera work is nothing special, on the amateur side, with way too many shots of small groups walking (yes, they split up, duh).

The one good thing about this film was a short, surreal dream sequence that lasted less than a minute, apparently painted-over film, which was aesthetically interesting. The rest? Toss it all out.

Friends having a vacation get in need of some first aid as one of them gets cut bad. They go to the nearest village and suddenly find themselves fighting for their lives. They don't like noise in this place and you could end up with your mouth sewn up.

This was really bad. When they first meet a kid in the town they use a man's voice for a dub over and he sounds just like Klaus Kinski. As soon as the kid talks you start laughing. The next minute you meet this guy who looks like he needs to eat a couple of sandwiches. Once you get past this you get to enjoy even more crap like the ghost of the girl with her lips sewn shut which according to the back story she shouldn't have sewn lips but anyways. They didn't show how they shut the animals up.

At first you're intrigued as to what might be happening in this town but then after 30 minutes you just want it to end. The problem again was all the budget went to renting a boat and a mansion leaving maybe a little for pizza.

When they explain what happened and why it makes the film even worse so for sure don't speak about this film anymore.

Me and my mate mistook this movie for 'Don't Breathe' by accident. Take my advice, DO NOT make this mistake. Don't Breathe, while not a masterpiece is still very watchable and tense, the same cannot be said for this monstrosity. In short, a bunch of spoiled unpleasant teens end up on some island where everybody is weird and like things to be quiet... Better not upset the island chief lest you be murdered in an unconvincing fashion... We don't know where this island is as every cast member tries to pull off a multitude of accents all at once, not to mention not one of them manages to act plausibly at any stage. Take away the gore and the explicit references, and you have a low budget teen soap opera, one that would get axed before the whole season airs. In short, stay away.

Normally I really respect movie industry for every effort to entertain people. This is my first time I do such a criticism after years.

Where to start; First, obviously European cast(clearly understandable Spanish accent )were acting like American -rich- spoiled-do nothing but partying and problematic characters and that was annoying. Second, Generally all the acting was bad and was not persuasive to scare anyone, if that was the goal,if it was not don't worry than. Third, at the end of the film, you ask yourself, what, why and by whom (again why)as stated in the movie for all those years, happened. And fourth, you ask yourself that, was it worthwhile to watch this movie instead of playing with your children (yes, the answer is NO ),than you make plans to make this up!

I had just seen this on Vimeo and thought I'd give it a go. I will give a A+ for the plot, i liked the whole scenario in a mysterious island but the actors could have done a better job. It was an ok film, still better then many other films out there.

I'm a little late watching this movie but i did like it. If your a fan of thrillers and guessing what might happen next then this is it. Loved the drama between friends and the ending was well done!

Just seen this and it isn't as bad as what these other reviews are saying. Don't speak has a solid cast and it had a good build story wise. Though the script can be a little predictable it had a nice few twists in it, enough to keep you watching . A 9 from me.

Seven young party animals get stranded on a mysterious island. The storyline does get interesting and it has a surprising ending. I do think this film is pretty original and it deserves a way higher score.

When a film is almost two years old and only has four reviews you should perhaps take that as a sign to avoid it.

Hey! I'm a glutton for punishment and punishment is what awaits you if you stumble across this 'Film'.

Less than 20 minutes in and already i'm questioning why i decided to watch this. The party on the boat has been the best part so far.

So the lad cuts his foot, they all(for some reason) go ashore and after stumbling across a young boy i presume was meant to be 'Demonic' our intrepid explorers set off in two groups to find a Doctor leaving the injured party and his girlfriend alone on the pebbled beach. Where do our two groups head in order to find a Doctor? Into the centre of Town? No!! One grouping heads into the woods while the other group hugs the shoreline. Now i don't know about where you live or indeed if you know many coastal towns but i'm not overly familiar with Doctor Surgeries being situated either in the middle of a woodland or directly down by the shore.

Of course i've already hear the phrase "Don't make a sound" around a half dozen times but no one actually ever tells them why they shouldn't make a sound and of course they don't think to ask. In a similar situation i think i might want to know why i'm being told to be so quiet. Is it that the town all work Nightshift? Is it a cultural or even Religious thing? Either way our intrepid idiots decide this the cue to make more noise than they perhaps would normally... Wish me luck for the next 40-50 minutes and take the advice of myself and the others who have reviewed this and 'Don't Watch'.

Actors deal for a bread with producer. It's like garbage

A group of young pale adults are partying on a boat to cheer up Michelle (Saras Gil) which doesn't seem to be working. Steve (Ben Vinnicombe) gets a nasty, non-life threatening cut on his foot, so everyone goes to the small village on the beach which has even paler people. The villagers act strange and tell our party group to be quiet and leave or else he will hear you. We had an animated sequence during the credit run and we get some more explanation with a dream and then it completes at the end. Difficult to figure out the "Final Girl" as the feature is not a formula film or plot. Certainly I expected certain people in the party to go before they did.

While I claim I love something new and unique in horror, I don't love them all. While I can give kudos for the plot, but making it into a mystery didn't help my enjoyment of a film whose execution went around in a circle... like the island. Film was extremely uneven with too many bad scenes and characters whose behavior was questionable. I did think the kid (Pol Baulida) was neat with an adult dubbed voice.
