Spirits

Disclosure: I am not a fan of this genre of horror movie. I was burned out on it before it even started. But as a fan of the director and production studio I gave it a shot. I was actually kind of impressed. The teen actors did a bang job on this and it sucked me right in. After watching it twice, I noticed even more clues and things happening all through the film. It wasn't perfect, but it was well done and very creepy at times. It raised the hair on my arms a few times and even put a chill down my back once. Good job and recommended.

I didn't have much faith in this 'movie' (I use the term loosely) after the opening credits but I persisted. I should have just swiched off. This movie is awful, don't waste your time watching this. Even as a low budget film it can't be forgiven.

The acting is terrible, I've seen better pre-school productions. The use of cam-corders and shaky cam is not executed well. The film is so dark at times you can't see what's happening and there is no atmosphere or suspense at all.

It's not original in any way, the plot is predictable and the penultimate scene is laughable. It lacked direction and the typical 'we ran out of ideas' ending was obvious!

Spirits will throw you off just like it did for the unscripted actors. No one knew the plan or the path this movie would take because it is completely unscripted and unexpected. Everything you see in this full length feature film is just as terrifying for the actors as it is for the audience. Yes, the actors had a general idea of what their role was but they never knew what was going to scare them to death and this is where director producer Todd Sheets' genius and background in large scale haunted house development comes into play. Says DIY News, "It was like running through a haunted house. It lulls you into a feeling of safety then jumps out and Kills you!"

Four friends made a found footage movie. Not a good one, at that.

They set it up as a business building closed for the night and our four weird looking, self-styled actors (which is a strong word for what they do in this movie) decide to ghost hunt. Every line is improved. Not well, it's just nobody wrote lines or a script.

Just the empty building premise (which looks exactly like my dentist's office building) with off screen PA's moving stuff around so they can run here and there.

A doll "levitates". Or, is pulled up with string so badly you'll actually cringe.

Toss in the obligatory weird janitor who drops hints and fore shadows. So, so horribly done.

It's bad. Their acting, the way they look, the sets...all bad. There's not a single phone in the entire building? They don't have phones?

I'm ashamed of myself for watching this. I hope to spare you my regret.

This is by far the worst acting ever. The girl with the short blonde hair is one of the worst actors I have seen. I was more annoyed with her and her bad acting than I was in the movie. Couldn't even finish watching it.
