There Are Monsters

I had fun watching it. Agree with everyone about the camera work. It's ironic how found footage really requires the most camera finesse out of all the horror sub genres. It's a balance that this movie leans a little too heavy in the shaky realm that eliminates some moments that could've been really impactful. Kudos to the special effects team though. Great visceral horror for a low budget film. Story was great too. There's a lot of doppelgänger horror out there but this one felt fresh. Horror is best when the gaps in the story are just wide enough for your brain to fill in the gaps and this had those moments without spoon feeding the plot to people.

This has some great ideas and is genuinely creepy in places. Based around a Body-Snatchers type found-footage premise, it's got some great ideas, but ultimately just falls flat due to a lack of budget.

I'm pretty sure it was shot on iPhones, but in all honesty, that mostly works, and the beasties get some really cool stand out scenes. They also sometimes get some rubbish ones.

Sadly, it just needed some more cash and maybe a year or two's more experience for the cast and, presumably small, crew to really nail it. If you are a film student or just really love horror, do give this a bash though, as it's got some solid ideas in it.

Ay you know that actually scared me wow, when their faces moved it actually sent me under the covers. My 25 year old brother was holding on to me for dear life at different parts during the film. I didn't like when he did that but fully understand why.

Really enjoyed the storyline, shame none of the potential movie makers in the film could actually focus on anything. Felt quite seasick at times and got bored watching a black screen. I get that they were trying to be realistic but I can film from a car window and still focus. Having said that, I did enjoy it

...but the overdone shaky and out of focus cam makes it pretty much unwatchable at times.

Other than that, this is a very decent "Invasion of the Bodysnatchers"-type remake with a lot going for it. It's a shame someone didn't point out that the shaky cam was just absurdly over-the-top and get the camera operator to hold it a bit steadier - like virtually anybody else using a hand-held video camera would.
