Your time is wasting, it had a good cast, good filming quality, but it was boring, uneven and left me hanging with what I had just wasted my time on in watching it to the end in looking for answers, that only partially were explained in the ghost, they could have done a much better job with someone else in charge of the film, probably.

The Wasting was a Canadian-British production that wasn't sure whether it wanted to be a drama or a horror film. The film focuses on Sophie (Lauren McQueen),an 18-year-old girl suffering from anorexia and seems to suffer from hallucinations, but she believes she's being haunted. There was a solid core for a film and Lauren McQueen did give a strong performance as her character degrades physically and mentally. But the rest of the film suffered from weak acting from the North American characters and the horror elements didn't become evident until the final third.

The description for this film was that it was about a girl fighting her parents strict rules and refusal to let her grow up by not eating. While doing this, a ghost appears and it could be real or brought about by her refusal to eat.

This was disappointing. It just barely held true to its description. I didn't think that the acting was horrible but it was lacking to be convincing. The story was sorta lame and if you paid attention, it wasn't hard to see where the film was heading. The description made out that the key to the plot was that she was refusing to eat but it wasn't really emphasised and it seemed that it was hardly even worth mentioning. There wasn't much of a "ghost" to speak of either.

I don't know. I watch a lot of horror/thrillers and I know it is easy to become jaded after having seen so many films get played out over and over again with only the people, places and situations changing. I have to say that this is one of those films that I feel was a waste of time. Maybe if you never watch horror this might be somewhat scary but for me, nope. It just didn't deliver.
