One of Them (2004)
Movie Review by The Gravedigger
12.15.04

One of Them (2004) Five young friends ,on their way to a trip in the country, crash their car when a mysterious swarm of bugs hits their vehicle. They crash and flip over a few times. When they awaken the next morning they all find themselves in a hospital-like ward, though they soon discover they're actually at a private school called the Marquez Academy. Least to say, it's not a normal school.The youths all take it matter-of-factly that their smashed car is being repaired-as well as finding out that the phones don't work. They explore the ancient looking school and meet a few of the students that are there. These students are part of a cult-like group who desire immortality through death. In fact, some of the characters are already dead. There's also a sub-plot about one of the women having nightmares about her insane mother-and that she keeps on seeing her. It turns out that her mother had resided at the Academy years before and gave birth to twins, who figure into the story.I kept on asking myself what this movie was about. It meandered all over the place. There's a hint that the supernatural is because of voodoo-and we see the small voodoo dolls placed about. Then there's a story about how the Spanish killed and enslaved the local Indians, which may figure into it somehow. The teachers, acting very suspicious from the get-go, also don robes and kill people.I also thought it weird that the locations for some of the scenes did not match. When we see the Marquez Academy it looks to be surrounded by desert-there are plenty of Joshua trees and we see mountains in the distance. But when one of the characters wanders away from the place he soon enters a very green forest. I don't think those biomes would be so close to each other. Also, the acting for the most part, is simply awful, particularly this short-haired blonde girl who has the same facial expression throughout the movie, even when she's being stabbed with a knife.ONE OF THEM is one of those movies that you easily forget.
