The Unhealer [DVD]

Although a lot of it is predictable, the movie’s story is fresh and they don’t hold back. It was fun to watch.

You can tell it's a low-budget movie, but sometimes it captures the story well. The main actor's extreme expressions are the high point of the acting, you really can feel his losses and frustrations. The concept is interesting, some might feel it's TOO undefined while others might enjoy the mystique to how the 'powers' work. Personally, they ended up just being a bit too confusing and inconsistent. This biggest issue is this had the chance to tell a very personal story and could have been about redemption or the main character finally choosing the 'high ground' and showing how revenge can eat away at you, BUUUUT that gets fumbled away pretty handily. The finale loses the plot and drive of the main character and we get an ending that says "oh no, the curse is still alive even if we told you it ended".

The movie plot? Oh, it's juicy! Picture this: a high school outcast discovers he has the power to heal people, but with a twist - he also has the power to inflict pain. Cue the chaos, the drama, and of course, Adam Beach looking smoldering hot as he navigates through the madness. This is a story that keeps you on the edge of your seat, not just from suspense, but from the laughter that ensues when things get so bizarre, you can’t help but giggle. This cinematic concoction is like a gourmet meal for the soul, especially for those who appreciate their movies with a side of eye candy, thanks to Mr. Beach.

After a year of COVID-19 lockdown, I was desperate for new video content and took a chance on this curiously titled independent film. The Unhealer is a thoroughly entertaining story complete with high school bullies, a victim with a voracious appetite for revenge, and payback that blows your mind. Highly recommended for anyone who was not home-schooled.

The writing was terrible and this was some of the worst acting I've ever seen, especially by Lance Henriksen. I had low expectations for this movie and somehow it was worse. It was an interesting concept, very poorly executed. Natasha Henstridge's performance was the lone bright spot of the movie. 2 stars just because I was able to finish the movie, and also for the concept and some of the depictions of the power in action.

The Unhealer feature film was full of action, thrills, chills and twists! The actors and actresses are a cast of "A" listers and are amazing and talented. I highly recommend this thrill seeker and a bucket of popcorn! I looked the movie up and they are in production for a sequel - look forward to it.

I was entertained and watched the whole thing. Sort of a little light on Navajo lore andmaybe somebody somewhere sometime thinks this could be real but I sure as heck do notrecognize it. Could just as well have used a green Egyptian rock stolen from an Eastern Museumor a chuck of meteorite carved into an image by something called the Old Ones as a source ofthe power instead of blaming it on the Navajo--wouldn't have mattered to the story. And so therewere no rules to follow so no problem with introducing pica as a part of the power, or the backward healing, or other illogical this-does-not-follow-that things. Just the same, it was entertaining anda good solid mediocre three star movie.

Fun movie with good acting, great story line, if you’re an AZ native you’ll also enjoy seeing some of the film locations that may look familiar. Overall worth the purchase or at the very least the time to rent and watch!
