The storyline was kinda interesting for the first half...The 'scary scenes' were more so a glimpse than a scene and the ending just had me completely confused.

I rewatched this a second time because I thought that I missed the plot point that would explain the two young boys and the old lady threatening them with an axe. I think one was the hospice nurse the other boy his brother? Why did she kill(?) one of them, Are the two boys related to the old lady?. Then the old ladies granddaughter turns out to be the one who kills the nurse in the end and demonically spits out the name of a demon at him. What was the white mask in there for? Nothing is explained, it's like they decided it would be "deep" to leave all the relevant information unknown to the viewers. I would rather watch a bad horror movie that you know what the hell was going on than a pretentious pile like this.

The movies was tedious and long dragged out but the last 30 minutes was the only fair part to me. Many say they couldn't understand, that's what Closed Caption is for. No one who's reviewed prior to me understood the ending. Let me explain, the old woman was a occultist. During her life it said she killed people, performed occult rituals, and other crimes. The male nurse was the little boy always standing by the door for whatever reason when the old woman performed rituals, he just didn't remember that time during his life with the old woman, being there meant the young woman would return. It's like the saying people always go back home. The old woman didn't want to die the killings crimes and occult rituals we're sacrificial for her to continue to live on once the body died. The girl was tied up because the old woman needed young woman there for her endgame. When the old woman said after she died to the man she will live forever. The old woman wanted to possess the young woman. If you look at the young woman's demeanor all through the movie depressed withdrawn edgy and hysterical. But at the very end if you notice when she left out the door at the end her whole demeanor was completely opposite for that moment she appeared to be happy and satisfied ready to Live. The catch is that it was no longer the young girl but the old woman whose soul took over her body. That's why she didn't want the younger woman to leave she needed her to stay to be able to possess her body. Look at the show again and you will have a greater understanding of what was happening and really going on in the movie. The old woman committed heinous crimes killing people and doing occult ritual sacrifices to live forever. Knowing this tidbit of information should help others to better understand the ending.

This is a slow burn without much story. The tale is actually in the old woman, her aging, her pain and her vindictiveness, and she presents it well. Other than that it's mostly a waiting game, waiting for the scary stuff and it comes, thank heaven. She blossoms into a truly frightening boogie-lady. I'm always about the scares but it's barely enough to carry this flick. A home nurse is left alone with his moribund patient in an old summer-home in isolation on a lake. She hates him and treats him like dirt. He is professional and caring until she destroys the charity he originally had for her. Either way, she gets so scary by the end that she sends him running for the safe circle every night. Tee hee.

As a former CNA (3rd shifter) this movie was absolutely terrifying. Its storyline is one I dont see much at all, and I'm a horror fanatic. The acting is great. Agnes is frightening from the start. The incredible characters make this movie one I will be definitely adding to my movie collection for sure!

If you wanna play on your phone for an hour and nineteen minutes, this is the movie for you. nothing starts happening until there's only a half hour left in the movie.

Okay, I can understand that this is a "slow-burn" movie. It was a really long setup, but the guy was cute and the setting/scenery was pretty cool. The trailer piqued my interest and the poster was cool. Two thirds into the movie and things started to shake...but I had NO idea what was going on! Either the lady's accent was too heavy, or she was chanting something ritualistic in another language, I just couldn't understand anything. Whatever was going on in the tape recorder was also impossible to understand. Even the subtitles just said "unintelligible" and "unclear" (I sh@t you NOT)--what's the point of having subtitles if THEY can't even understand what's being said?! (Plus, the screen went too-dark-to-see-anything in the middle of a scene and you have no idea what's happening! Grr.) The one part I did understand set up some really creepy possibilities. At one point the lady leans against a window and taps out something in Morse code on the frame. She says, "I love this old house. It is always talking to me." Then the creep-factor disappears because the guy has to explain that he got a medal for learning Morse code in the scouts...and that's it. And I JUST realized, I don't think anyone at any point in the movie said ANYTHING about opening or closing your eyes! @#%$^*&%!!! If you understood this movie, PLEASE reply and explain it to me. I'm going to try again with the sound blasting and subtitles on all the way through. I Googled all over the place to see if someone else had figured it out, but came up with nothing. I really want to understand what's going on here. I shouldn't have to work this hard to figure out a movie! NOTE TO DIRECTOR: Please just do it again. Leave the picture alone, just remix the audio to make the sound more "intelligible" for the subtitling company (dubstep, anyone?). DANG, I really want to like this!

Compared to a lot of blood and thunder, teen horror movies, this one came as a much welcomed, breath of fresh air. It's much more in the style of 'Hereditary', rather than many of it's inferior ilk and the actress who played the elderly (dying lady) was rather excellent. Can't understand the negative reviews for this one and deserves a much more considered, careful attention.

Ivan CortêsNov 22, 2022

Sometimes I wonder why I do this to myself? The movie has very low ratings, the reviews are almost all negative, and still I decide to watch this. Why do I do that? What's wrong with me? Should I not know better by now? Those are the questions that were wandering my mind during this snoozefest. Don't Open Your Eyes is one of those movies that goes nowhere, with an extremely slow story, not only slow but also boring. Some shots seem to last five minutes and they're not even that interesting after one second, let alone five minutes. The actors are mediocre, the old woman (I don't know her name, too lazy to look it up) is overacting but in a mediocre way. Don't make the same mistake I did, stay far away from this garbage.
