The Devil's Well

Don't waste your time watching this movie. I wish I would have read the reviews before watching this stupid movie!

Another forgettable flick in the "paranormal investigation gone awry" subgenre. You'll forget it half an hour after you've seen it.

The first half of the movie is a fake documentary and is pretty solid

the second half is found footage. It begins well, but the team carries two obvious liabilities for no reason 1 - the husband, that the team don´t trust 2 - a medium that clearly doesn´t help with the claims of "finding uncontroversial proof" and is obviously going to be possessed

In the last half hour the team that was working well suddenly starts acting stupid. There is no more protocol. Before they were exploring in groups, but now everybody walk into the darkness alone. when obnoxious sceptic guy see a man in the camera, he asks by radio that an unarmed little woman "go check to see if we are alone"

the first 70 minutes were interesting and it would deserve a better evaluation, but in the ending it seems everybody took the Cabin in the woodspheromone that reduces intelligence

What I try to do with these types of films is to pretend it's real. When it's a combo - documentary/found footage film, you need that storyline to build the plot. Some feel this is boring. With this film, I feel they did a decent job to prepare you for what comes next. What came next started off rather well imo, but as it neared the end of the film, it all fell apart. Intelligent people suddenly turned stupid, no true fear factor, and I suddenly found myself predicting the rest of the movie. One thing I will say, there were no annoying characters that you pray die half way into the flick. If you have time to spare, give it a go. You may like it or maybe not lol

Horrible found footage movie ... if the guys from slipknot went on a murder spree.
