Dorothy Mills is what low budget horror is all about. Some complain the movie was a little slow, but in my honest opinion that was necessary to develop the characters.

Dorothy Mills takes its time getting going, but the payoff is a great movie that doesn’t spend all its time on scares and blood. It makes sure you care about who is bleeding and you’re not just scared because something jumps out of the dark and catches you off guard. You’re scared because you care what happens to the people you’ve grown attached to over the course of the movie.

Probably the best thing about Dorothy Mills is it doesn’t cheap out in the end and give you the ending you were expecting. When they try to explain everything that happened in the movie, its well done and doesn’t seem rushed or pulled together. The plot twists are genuinely surprising and the acting is solid – all for less than a million dollars. Not bad at all.

Quick Review: If you’re looking for an edge of your seat thriller from start to finish, Dorothy Mills isn’t the movie for you. Give it a chance though and accept that things are a little slow to start. The reward for your patience is well worth it.
