The Blackwell Ghost 7

I loved this 7th one. Awesome way to leave us on a cliffhanger. Cannot wait to see the 8th one. Love the idea and the contrast/connection between all the ones you've made so far. I hope you bring more paranormal back into the 8th one, but continue your search for the "?". Or even start looking at new homes and do some more investigating. Keep going with these. My cousin and I love them. I haven't seen like any bad reviews on these, so if you have not watched this 10/10 recommend. It'll be hard to leave after just watching the first one. You're gonna want to watch all the rest of them shortly after.

I enjoyed all of the previous titles in this series. In the beginning, it really felt like it could have been a documentary, but as it kept going, the immersive reality of the series has been on the downslope. This is the point in the series at which there is no longer any question that this is scripted and not a real documentary. The natural feel of previous versions is lost, and you're left with the feeling that you're watching a very mediocre and completely scripted horror film. Shots that are supposed to be in an environment look like they're clearly shot on green screen, the police officer enlisting the help of Clay moves from unlikely in the previous titles to completely unbelieveable. The antagonist becomes unbelievable, obviously trying to get caught, stopping a hair's width short of leaving a map of his location with a full confession saying "I did all of the bad stuff, find me where X marks the spot on this map". Clearly he intends to make another movie in this franchaise, and while I really hope that the next installment fixes some of the mistakes made in this one, as things stand, I feel like he's gone from pushing his luck with milking this for sequels to clearly crossing the line. This title lacks the scares of previous installments, but foremost breaks the illusion that he established in previous films that make this believeable as a documentary. He's clearly running out of good ideas for the franchaise, and poorly done green screens in what's supposed to be real life, clunky acting with even clunkier dialog leaves this as the movie that even for fans of the series that he should have stopped before making. I'm undecided on whether he should try and get it back on the rails with the next movie, or whether he should just cut his losses at this point.

So I heard this was out on the day, I rushed to Amazon Prime to Rent it, I was not dissapointed, as usual it was an immaculate presentation, less ghost activity but my godness was it gripping. As always Clay presents this in such a way as to immerse the viewer drawing you in and making you invest. I watched it three times and every time there was something new a little neuance, suggestive and dark. The final scene had me freaking out and dying to see what is to come next Can't wait for 8! Thanks Clay for making a series of films that just keeps giving and never dissapoints. The juxtaposition between Supernatural activity, pathos, loss and serial killing horror is so cleverly done.

I was expecting more and I had high hopes as I was looking for a good horror movie to watch and this movie had a high rating but I ended up very disappointed. I don't know how this one is rated above 6.0 when it's so boring and the story is just mediocre, nothing that you hadn't watched before in a horror movie. It's not interesting, there's no action. It's hard to like this kind of movies when the actor just record themselves and talk to the camera telling the audience what's going because it just kills the plot. The actor was good, he did a good job and him is the only thing that made me watch it until the end.

Yet another excellent entry in The Blackwell Ghost series of films. As soon as I saw this was out I had to watch it. I started watching these last year and it has been a gripping ride. Very cleverly made on a small budget, with the quality and attention to detail you should really see from much bigger films/studios, but rarely do. Not going to put any spoilers in but if you are a fan of these then make sure you watch Part 7, it really is very good and then start looking forward to Part 8, and if you haven't started watching them yet then go right back to the beginning. You really won't be disappointed!
