Poor acting, weak story, and not scary! The only plus side to the movie was the unexpected twist at the end.

Found Footage is my favorite and I always love seeing what independent directors are able to accomplish with almost no budget. This had some interesting ideas and the twist is pretty unique! I can see what it was going for, but it just didn't work for me.

One reviewer stated that people missed the point and that this is actually a drama. Maybe so... But if so, its not a very good one. You know the type of person that thinks they are super deep, but gives you secondhand cringe all the time? This is the movie equivalent of that person. It thinks it has something really important to say, but really its pretty surface level and nothing you haven't read on some cheesy Facebook post by your best friends mom.

No scares, no entertainment value, and nothing new to say. Skip it.

One of the worst films I have ever seen, this movie is riddled with horrible decisions from the onset. The lead actress is horrendous and has no acting ability or talent. Her English is hindered by her strong Ukrainian accent, and made understanding what she said a chore. She delivered her lines with the tact of a community theater understudy, and had no semblance of an understanding in basic theatrical emoting. She was the absolute worst thing about this, by far.

The rest of the cast was either distant or oblivious, and the supporting characters were even more horrendous than the lead, although (thankfully) they get very limited screen time. The cinematography is a joke, and the script is inane. It comes of as "my first screenplay" levels of bad, although I don't think that the people responsible did a single rewrite or edit to the final "script".

The most offensive thing about this movie has got to be the over abundance of shaky cam. I grew nauseous with each passing minute, and by the end of the movie I was reaching for the Dramamine. It was so freaking bad, I barely made it to the credits without wanting to blow my lunch all over my new carpet.

Overall, this film is a bag of garbage left out on a hot summer day after a drunk girl vomited all over it the night before. It is so bad, that I am actively making the effort to erase it from my mind. It does not deserve a single iota of space in my memory.

I feel I have to write my first review now! Honestly I don't get all bad reviews and those bunch of a-holes who watch and rate FF movies despite they hate these kind of movies.

Unfortunately many stupid people have seen and rated this movie describing it one of the worst and blah blah, while they didn't even notice this is NOT a horror movie, but rather a drama with FF and horror elements. Great atmosphere, great storytelling and one of the most surprising twists I've seen in an independent movie so far. A great (if not the best) addition to Wild Eye Releasing movies.

Not perfect for sure - I didn't like the main actress either, but a great film. And please stop bashing indie horror films and ff films. If you don't like them, choose something else.

Paint a wall, then watch it dry. It is more fun. Fast forward to the credits. Take a nap instead.
