Fear Challenge

A movie with such a good potential but sadly it ended to be really bad. The action takes too long to settle, the acting is bad, and actors are just caricatures of how someone you who don't understand this generation and internet views it. The movie try so hard to drown you with it's message " bouhou young people are stupid and they watch stupid things that some stupids ones do just to be famous" god knows this is so annoying. And this plot twist, a good idea, easy but not previsible but they failed it, cause of that goddamn kid's acting, 0 credibility. Plus they try to fix it but for a final it's too long and have absolutely no sense, at the end you're like " wtf ? ". It is sad, such a good idea wasted like a lot before this one. Watch it if you want to spend your time, for me, I'm not watching it again. One that you forget easily.

I've seen way better Found Footage movies. Even with all the spins and twists, this probably will not entice you too much. On the other hand, how is this different or worse than any other of the many FF movies out there? Yes from a story standpoint it tries to give it a spin (especially towards the end), but overall this is business as usual and shocking moments as usual as well.

The acting is overall ok, though I would totally understand if you feel differently. Either go with the flow and the ridiculous premise(s) or better not watch at all

This movie needs a bigger screen and good atmosphere to work.

Don't watch in daytime or on a small TV.

It's not a one star movie. It is well made, the actors are quite good (they are very good at displaying the typical youtubers).

The setting is amazing and its use is quite effective.

The plot twist is weird, but who cares, it works.

For Found Footage completists.

Here's The Lowedown on "Heilstatten: Haunted Hospital" (NR - 2018 - DVD)

Lang: German Genre: Horror/POV My Score: 5.3

Cast=4 Acting=6 Plot=7 Ending=5 Story=3 Scare=3 Jump=5 F/X=6 POV=7 Twist=7

At an abandoned sanctuary near Berlin, a group of YouTubers illegally enter for a 24-hour challenge they hope will go viral. They learn too soon that they are not alone and not welcome.

"Rule number one: no Internet while we're here." I thought this was pretty good, but only because I am a POV horror junkie. This movie would only appeal to those that would think the same way. Even still, there was a solid concept (maybe because YouTubers die) and a good twist (you have to pay attention). If you're desperate, this might be worth a look.

Pretty decent movie with a good twist. Loved it. Much better then the rating showes..
