The House in Sherwood

If you haven't seen any of British Director Richard Mansfield's films, they are very low budget, found footage, and glacially slow. Usually with very simple plots. This one is certainly low budget and almost painfully slow but actually the plot is an improvement over his other work, especially over "A Haunting In Sherwood", which this is a sequel to. This is far from a good film, I can't even say it is a particularly entertaining film, but it isn't the worst way to spend 70 minutes. Once it finally gets going there are a few actually inspired chills, bit not enough to make up for the dullness of the first two acts. Keep trying Richard, you're getting closer to making a decent film.

It started off so bad I switched off after 5 minutes. Next day I went back as nothing else to watch. Worth it, despite how naff it seems at first and the ott of the 2 leads. If you like found footage horror, keep watching and watch the background in Karens footage closely. I adore found footage and this is worth a watch.

The acting of the two lead actors was so hammy and over the top, that this so-called horror movie came across as a spoof comedy.

Found footage movies are where the characters show us what they are seeing. But for the major part of this film, we had to endure close ups of the two characters' faces, including their ugly teeth and skin pores.

The actress who plays the antagonist is particularly irritating.

I enjoyed this film! It started kind of slow, but I liked that this wasn't a jump scare kind of horror film. It was a spooky one. I will watch it again. I am curious to see some of these other films from the UK.

The good points: The acting, the story, some really good scary scenes. The bad points: Okay some the scary scenes didn't work, most did. Then there's the running time, I Felt if it was on for longer it may have been scarier. Now for the supposed budget and done in covid Times this film had a lot going for it and I have just watched the new wonder woman film which cost hundreds of millions to make and it was awful. This movie made for a normal person's week's pay is a far better film in all areas. Kudos to the film director and all involved I.e. the actors and actresses ( the main people in the film) did an amazing job all round. Do yourself a favour, watch this and remember it cost a person's week's pay to make and put this against a Hollywood film that cost hundreds of millions to make. I know o I would give an award to for their film making. Does it have endpoints, of course it does but what it has accomplished is for the viewer to see. Well done.
