Remnants (2013)

Review by Platypuschow

Remnants

4/10

Remnants: Showed such promise

A couple living in the middle of nowhere with their dog observe rapidly escalating supernatural activities in their home in this found footage movie.

At just over an hour it isn't very long but to tell this story it didn't need to be, in fact longer would likely have damaged it.

The couple are charming and make for very likeable protagonists, that and the cute dog.

It opens generically but fairly well and actually managed to really get my attention. Alas when things start to go down it begins to fall apart and that genuinely upset me as it was going so well until that point.

The film fails to explain much and leaves it to your imagination, many traditional found footage tropes can be found and by end it had become like every single other one of its type.

To the filmmakers/cast I would say well done regardless, it shows such promise and suggests that you guys know what you're doing so don't stop now.

Go back to the drawing board and give it another shot.

The Good:

Convincing cast

Great dog actor

Well made for the most part

The Bad:

Music over found footage is moronic

Gives in to too many cliches

Weak finale

Things I Learnt From This Movie:

When dogs get scared, time to get your shoes on
