Reel

This is the best snuff style movie I ever seen! You swear everything you see is actually real and I guess that the point. Slasher Victim 666 and his family cult are going to take hollywood by storm. The best part is there actually a story so when it gets all crazy you actually care. Wayyy better than august underground and all the movies like that. This is the kind of movie I've wanted to see forever! Must see for true horror fans!!

"Now i sometimes find the "found footage" genre of film very difficult to watch. Especially if the camera is bobbing up and down and not being steady for more than a few seconds. This film however is a breath of fresh air in that regard as i found it easy to watch. So right off the bat the cinematography is near perfect. The use of different cameras to bring tension to certain parts of the film is just amazing. The Character Todd Smith is a believable character and to be honest i felt like i knew him or someone as equally mental from back in high school.

i kind of got the feeling he could be pushed over the edge to do some real shady stuff to get the answers he wants. With that being said however i think he really wants whats best for his idiot brother who doesn't seem to see that his ole lady is cheating on him. we all have known a guy like that one time or another as well.

I can see why he resorts to spying and basically staking out his brother's place while he is away. what i didn't expect in the latter part of the film is special effects that rival some of Hollywood's best in the gore genre. It instantly reminded me of the remake of the "Evil dead" as far as special effects quality so hats off for the SFX team. just awesome. The Film itself is told basically in bits of POV footage from either Todd or slashervictim666. such a great job of weaving it all together and keeping it interesting throughout the film.And thanks to Slashervictim666 for supplying the gore and ending the film on a "killer" note! I wont give way anymore of the story so just see for yourself. Awesome work for sure...."

4 stars out of 5

I only put 9 stars here because i gave the second one 10 stars and i liked that one even more than this one. Other than that, this film is really good. I found this movie series a few days ago on my own randomly, and was pleasently suprised to find i could watch it for free on their site. Even so, the film obviously took a lot of time, effort and money to make and it felt so real that i genuinely had to make sure this wasn't some accidental dark-web stuff i stumbled across (haha.) Really gore-y film and it was hard to watch when things picked up but as i said for the second one, the storyline was really good and we get some insight on sv666's life and also todd's. I read a review that said this movie was ahead of it's time and i have to say i agree... these type of movies don't hit the cinemas nowerdays as for the extreme goreiness of it all but maybe one day they will get more out there and more people may enjoy them.

Either way i was one of the many to watch this film before it was more well known, and i'm very happy to have checked these films out and hope more people will come across them.

A wannabe film director and found footage freak runs around blabbing about what a die hard extreme horror fan he is via vlogging. But he ends up becoming a victim himself after being set up by another film maker. The last part of Reel is brutal and full on. The earlier vlog stuff I fast forwarded at times, as the main character was annoying.

Gnarly.

Let me preface this by saying if you are someone who doesn't like graphic depictions of gore it would be best to turn away now. With all respect this movie isn't made for you and you won't enjoy the experience. With that out of the way let me begin.

It is difficult for me to find the right words to explain the way I feel towards this movie. As someone who has seen literally a hundred found footage movies, from a purely objective viewpoint, 'REEL' isn't all that noteworthy. You can find a better story, acting, and even gore in other movies of this style. But to me the part that stands out is the passion with which this was made.

Too often in the found footage genre are cheaply made films done solely to make a quick buck. But 'REEL' is different. You can just feel the amount of love put into this film in it's editing and presentation. They did a superb job in making a realistic and bloody snuff film the likes of which you could find at a crime scene. It may be bold of me to say something like "This is a must see movie for everyone" or "SlasherVictim666 is the greatest director ever and his movies masterpieces". But for those like me who are always looking for nasty horror movies made with soul, this will hopefully bring you the same entertainment it brought me.
