I just watched this one of the streaming services me and the missus use and it's so bad I felt I had to come on here and warn people! I've seen some bad found footage movies over the years in fact I think you expect them to be bad but this one is the pits. It's like they decided to just rip scenes from other movies, mash them altogether and call it a film. And why is their no cast and crew on display? The whole thing is very shifty, was this a tax write off or something? Either way it's the worst film I've ever seen and I hope the creator stops at this and doesn't make any more movies.
While away on business I need to occupy my time and film screenings are a great one. I managed to watch this little gem during something called the creepy crypt or something to that effect. It's one of those found footage things and after seeing several good reviews online I was quite excited when leaving my hotel room to go and see it. The crowd were lively, the location was a bit cramp but okay but the movie was terrible. I wasn't going to leave a review but the creators are very vocal about putting reviews on here and/or redbox so I indulge. It's a dark gloomy film with no character its all been done before and I don't understand why people make these movies. Found footage is dead, its been done time and time again and needs a rest.
To summarize it's not as bad as some of the stuff my hubby has made me watch over the years but since I had netflix in my hotel room I should have stayed there.

I remember watching the trailer on youtube for fear footage and being excited about it as I really like found footage movies and this looked like it had the potential to be really scary. I followed the Facebook page intently getting all the updates but was always sad I couldn't get to any of the viewings and there really weren't enough of them anyway. When the admin told me that it was coming to dvd and amazon I was very happy but it kept getting delayed and delayed so I decided to be naughty and saw it on putlocker I go gave it a go. Sat with a bag of warm popcorn to my left and doggie to the right I settled in for the movie I'd waited all this time for and could have cried when the credits rolled. It was so bad, I felt like I was promised some revolutionary incredible movie but what I got was a childish movie that's made me lose faith in the genre altogether. It was so bad I don't know what else I can say, I feel lied to and the guilt I had briefly for not buying the dvd went out the window. It's awful it looks like someone made it on their phone and cast there family members as cast and crew AND IT SHOWS. I wouldn't mind it being badly made if it were at least scary but all this you'll never sleep again, sleep with the lights on and it'll stick with you afterwards is all lies. It's not scary at all it's just boring and does what every other found footage movie does and thats hide the lack of budget by having nothing actually happen. Sorry folks over at the Facebook page but you'll be seeing minus one follower from your page.
Found Footage movies are usually bad lets not kid ourselves here they are the first port of call for zero budget filmmakers and they tend to absolutely stink. The Fear Footage is an example of this, the money clearly had absolutely no money no actors and nobody with the ability to write a good script. I think its the height of disrespect that the creators didn't even acknowledge the cast on this page as well and the hefty number of 10's and identically worded reviews/cloned reviews kills the films credibility even more. Despite there being lots of bad found footage movies there are some good ones so skip over this and find one of them.
I love found footage, and I love low budget films, but this one misses the mark at nearly every turn. It's an anthology with a interwoven story tying everything together, like the V/H/S movies do. The first segment here has a few decent scares, but they are jump scares. The rest of the segments were an absolute chore to get through and incredibly disappointing. The story that ties them all together actually has a really cool premise that is pretty creepy. The issue was that by the end, when it actually starts to get creepy, I was so checked out from being irritated and bored. The only redeeming part of this film was ruined for me. I gave this film 3 stars because the interwoven story actually had creativity and potential.
