I wish I could write something really good at this movie as the beginning was only the better part of this film, once it reaches the middle and towards the end, it kinda went downhill pretty fast., The actors are average as not one of them was the weak link acting wise, I guess they should have made it more scarier like those in the NUN / CONJURING special effects.,
anyways, I won't recommend this to someone who wants to be truly scared, I fell asleep towards the end, Yes, it's that boring!
a 4/10 for me...+ 1 for the actors performance and +1 for the beginning, it had potential

So, directing solid, acting jolly good, dialogue/script spot on, nice bit of humour taking the mick out of the genre, all things required to make a very good movie. However, well nothing actually happens, no jumps, no gore, no blood thirsty demonic creature vowing to gut you etc. You just wish the budget could have been stretched just that little bit more to allow some sfx.
If it wasn't for the positives mentioned you'd be looking at a movie with a score of 3/10, pity, but I will look for further work by the director in the future.
This is a serviceable little horror flick. Released quietly last year I was initially intrigued by the trailer, the casting of Heather Lagenkamp(Nightmare on elm st.) and childhood crush Ryan Merriman (Ring 2). The movie centers around a group of paranormal investigators trying to do legit shows but on the verge of cancellation they finally discover something real and begin to regret it. The movie doesn't bring anything new to the table but it's marginally entertaining. Sadly the films best performance comes from Lagenkamp who only shows up 15 mins before the ending and still packs one hell of a scream. As for the rest of the cast they're okay. A little more imagination and development would have benefitted this but it's still not a bad way to pass the time.
3/5
3/5
Well normally a 3 star rates movie is just that, but in this case it surprised me, bit wierd bit strange but an enjoyable movie.
Hi. I'm a fan of both horror films, and the found footage/mockumentary format, and my reviews reflect that.
This wasn't as bad as some reviewers suggest. Lets just assume this isn't up for the Oscars and move on from there.
The two leads were relatively strong, particularly Jamie Tisdale. For the first half it was pretty much all on them and they did pretty well with it. Myk Watford brought some Cajun fresh air to the show.
The script was nothing blazingly original for fans of the genre, still it put its own twist on it and that's admirable.
It was nice to see Heather Langenkamp, most notably from the "Nightmare on Elm Street" movies, and that's where the film really finds it's footing and it's pace.
As always with these, if you're looking for something of the level of "Get Out" then you'll leave the film wanting. However, if you've enjoyed films like Hell House LLC, or Savageland then you'll probably find enough in this movie to keep entertained and engaged, even though the quality doesn't necessarily rise to the level of those films.
On the whole, there were enough interesting hooks and character business to keep my attention and entertain me for the runtime of the film.
