    Death Row is a terrible B moving that had the potential of being something terrific. Unfortunately due to the fact that the script is poor, the special effects look cheap and that the acting is poor, Death Row is one terrible horror film. The film had an interesting concept about... read more a documentary crew filming in a haunted prison. Unfortunately, the filmmakers don't know how to effectively construct a suspenseful, horrifying picture and the result is awful. What could have been a wonderful horror film turns out to be a total mess with a poorly constructed plot, under developed characters, and poor directing. Death Row is a total disappointment, and for me, anyways is one of the worst Low-Budget horror films that I've seen in quite some time. Death Row may have had a great concept for a haunted house style film, although in this case it's a haunted prison. Unfortunately the film goes nowhere, and most of "terrifying" elements are laughable. I think that if the film had a better cast, better script, this film could have worked. The film was disappointing and it fails to entertain. In fact it took me everything to finish this film as it was so poorly crafted that it has to stay involved. Death Row could have been a good film, but it's a total disappointment and an awful film from start to finish.

    Not the worst horror films ever made (saved mainly by having a little gore factor), but really rubbish acting and the storyline seemed to have much more potential that it actually gave. Watchable in a miss-able way.

    Poorly structured and a rather pointless film. It seems like just an excuse to have a lot of blood and gore with a flimsy plot and no characters that are developed much at all. It has too many predictable moments. The acting wasn?t bad at least.

    They failed when attempting to make the ghosts have the disjointed animated look of Japanese horror... and you could tell they were trying for that

    This movie was just on the Sci-Fi channel. It was a bit slow in the beginning, but it ended up being an alright movie...

    This movie actually was interesting. I enjoyed watching it. I wanted to slap the character Marco played by Jake Busey.

    nothing too orignal about this horror flick but still worth seeing once if you are a true hooror flick fan.

    Interesting story behind this. A lot of things looked really fake. Some of the gore was good. That blond prick should have been the first to die.
