Watch Cut!

Cut! is a 2014 horror film directed by David Rountree and starring Sam Scarber, Dahlia Salem, and David Banks. The film follows a group of actors and crew as they attempt to make a horror movie, but are targeted by a mysterious killer who begins to pick them off one by one. The film begins with a group of actors and crew coming together to shoot a low-budget horror movie. The film's director, R.J. (Sam Scarber), is an old-school Hollywood director who won't hesitate to yell at his actors and crew if they don't deliver what he wants. However, things start to go wrong when members of the cast and crew are mysteriously murdered on set.

As the body count rises, the remaining members of the crew try to figure out who the killer is and how to stop them. Is it a member of the cast, or someone from the crew? The film keeps the audience guessing until the very end.

One of the strengths of Cut! is its use of meta-horror elements. The film constantly plays with the idea of what's real and what's fake, blurring the line between the movie being made and the horror that's happening on set. The film's use of found footage also adds a layer of realism to the horror, making it feel like it could happen to anyone making a movie.

Another strength of Cut! is its performances. Sam Scarber is fantastic as R.J., the gruff director who is both the glue that holds the film together and the catalyst for its downfall. Dahlia Salem is also great as Amanda, one of the actors who starts to unravel as the deaths pile up.

David Banks, who plays the killer, is also worth mentioning. Though his character doesn't have any lines (at first, at least), Banks is able to convey a sense of menace and terror without saying a word. His physicality and body language make him one of the more memorable horror movie villains in recent years.

However, Cut! isn't without its flaws. Some of the acting is a bit stilted and the film's pacing can be slow at times. There are also a few moments where the film relies on tired horror movie tropes, such as characters making stupid decisions just to move the plot along.

Overall, Cut! is an engaging and entertaining horror movie that offers a fresh take on the found footage genre. Its mix of meta-horror elements and strong performances make it a worthwhile watch for fans of the genre.

Cut! is a 2014 thriller with a runtime of 1 hour and 44 minutes. It has received mostly poor reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 4.2.
