फ़ीचर्ड समीक्षाएं
I was not big fan of Graven Encounter but that movie is a masterpieces to compared to The Crying dead (2011)
The dead won't be the only ones crying after this movie, as you be crying for wasting time on this rubbish.
The open scenes was really weired and the only decent part of the movie, Before title come up, we see fast forward scene from later in the movie.
Then get a bunch of people auditioning for new Ghost hunting show.
65% of nothing happing in this movie, boring plot very unlikeable people, who could not act, or actors pretending to be as Bad actors as they could .
There was not one second of a eerie feeling in this movie even WHEN the ghost showed up, effect were really badly done.
Then if the ghost don't show up, these people end up getting blown or drag away, that was so many time in less then a few minutes is gets tedious and boring, dose not scarce anyone.
2 out of 10
To my surprise The Crying Dead was the exception. Though much of the plot is predictable the execution is grand. With good writing and directing the story easily flows from one event to the other. As a viewer I was never bored nor restless.
The acting is above average and the actors themselves succeed in portraying believable characters.
The scares are plentiful which makes for a great horror film.
I recommend anyone into good horror movies to give this one a try.
Yeah The Crying Dead was OK, but I wish someone would really kill (no pun intended) it with a ghost investigation movie.
This found footage movie was released the same year as GRAVE ENCOUNTERS (2011), a thematically virtually identical but far superior found footage movie which demonstrates how much potential was unrealized here.
The prologue shows old footage of some kind of experiment but then nothing later in the movie ties into it. The actual ghosts are not given the prologue treatment. Also, there is a tale of cannibals and of a patient who cut his nurse that go nowhere. The crew members just disappear and we never know what exactly happens to them. The motivations of the supernatural beings are entirely unclear, which is surprising, given how much time the movie spends recounting the history of the hospital. In short, this is one of the more disjointed found footage movies I have seen.
Everything is predictable from a mile away, save for one mild twist: when the first supernatural events occur, the crew members still think that it is prank played on them; and the motivation for thinking so is actually plausible. Actually, the order in which the team members are picked off one by one was also something I did not predict, but the end result was all the same. There are no really new ideas here.
Finally, the way the ghosts are introduced and used for horror is pretty bad. It is really obvious that the ghosts are just a special effect, and for a moment I thought this was actually meant to be a plot twist in which someone sets up hokey ghosts to scare the crew or something.
Some of the scenes had the potential to be scary, but the victims are dispatched far too soon to unsettle the audience, and then, as mentioned, we never find out what precisely happens to them.
Finally, I don't understand why so many found footage movies make their characters so unlikable. I understand that for dramatic purposes, it is good to have characters with tragic flaws, but we the audience still have to be able to look beyond that to care for them.
I did not rate this lower because, despite the disjointedness, the story itself was fairly coherent and the movie had at least some atmosphere.
Overall, I consider this a below average found footage film. Some more recent and better found footage treatments of the same concept are HOLLOWS GROVE (2014) and GONJIAM: HAUNTED ASYLUM (2018).

- गूफ़In the beginning of the film when Chris Mitchell introduces himself to the interviewer, he says that he is originally from Spokane Washington, however he pronounces Spokane with a long A as in Cane, not a short A as in Can. A Spokanite would never pronounce it that way.
