The Lost Episode

The Lost Episode is the 7th movie in the Paranormal Investigations franchise. A series of unconnected movies, all hyper low budget, ghost themed and terrible.

Well this is terrible that's for certain but it does have a couple of differences from the others. For a start it had a clean million budget, this is a great deal higher than the rest, though to be honest you'd never tell. Second and here's where it gets weird, this straight to the bargain bin 7th movie in a awful franchise was directed by Michael Rooker. Yes star of Guardians of the Galaxy, Walking Dead, Mallrats and countless other films in his only director role, and he stars in it as well! I'd love to know the story behind that, it's so bizarre. It's like Spielberg suddenly deciding to direct an Evil Bong movie!

Outside of the addition of Rooker however this just yet another movie about people going to an abandoned asylum and getting picked off. However it's badly disjointed due to ultimately telling several stories at the same time both past and present, and the fact the cover suggests this is found footage it begs the question of where is the footage?

Sorry Mr Rooker but your directorial debut is an embarrassing mess that has nothing to set it apart from the other thousand copy and paste movie of its ilk.

The Good:

Michael Rooker

The Bad:

A found footage with no found footage

Stock screams

Recycled nonsense

Ridiculously disjointed

Far from being a critic of this movie, I'm even MORE of a critic of the asinine people attempting to criticize a movie when they can't even spell or use sentence structure. I know I'm not perfect, but DAMN PEOPLE!! At LEAST learn the language if you are going to make comments about a movie!! While the movie itself is not a master work of art, at least the movie tries to have a decent plot twist unlike some of these high budget pieces of garbage that are made by studios with huge wallets. And also unlike the high budget crappy movies, the low budget movies at least try to have original ideas, even if some are dangerously close to clones of other movies. At the end of the day, it doesn't matter how good or how bad a movie is, it matters what the movie is to the VIEWER. And again - LEARN HOW TO TYPE IN UNDERSTANDABLE, STRUCTURED SENTENCES, ya twits.

I thought this movie was going to be one of those Hand-Held Camera but however they try to make it out it is like ones of those movies.

I thought the plot was okay, they had decent idea of twist in this movie, even thought twist is very predicable from start of the movie.

Number of people go to this building to film before they go into the building this tall guy tells not to go in and yet he goes in there with them.

Thought out the movie loud noise and people screaming and the mad doctor is stalking this place after all these year!

One by one they all getting killed by this made doctor in this haunted place, torture scenes were really badly done too.

The movie was very boring and wasn't actually stopped watching the movie, while cleaning up and having this on in the back ground for most of time.

The acting in this movie was really bad, it had laughing for most of the times, when the over act the lines

2 out 10

A 2 is being nice. I'm very surprised that Beverley Mitchell & Haylie Duff are associated with this video (yup, filmed on vid not film). Then I saw they helped produce it. Ouch! C'mon ladies! I wanted to stop watching after 20 minutes but out of a love of Bev & Haylie I continued til the end. The acting is some of the worst I've ever seen. Although Haylie does a good job at being believable the rest of the cast is pretty blah. Sorry to say Bev even wasn't up to par in this and I'm a big fan of hers. It's categorized as horror, I see it as comedy. I see the budget was 1 million. Where'd it go? Certainly not into the making of this movie. With Michael Rooker directing you'd think the movie would be worth a watch. Sorry, Mr. Rooker. Don't quit your day job.

If yoy have someone in your life that you really. really and I mean REALLY dislike, invite them to your house and make them watch this HORRIBLE excuse for a movie!

They will exit running out the door yelling NNNNOOOOOOO!
