Mortal Remains

I loved the movie! Really made me believe it was real.

When done poorly these types of films suck when done well as this one with a well constructed story and other then one cast member who never stopped grating on me all players did solid if not excellent jobs. These films need the edge players to be convincing and it this movie the crew of the fake movie needed to be convincing or this falls apart. The fake crew of culture shock and the African American ex cop were outstanding what they said and how they said it were completely believable. But the absolute worst person that nearly made me turn it off was the weaslly little cameraman. He from the moment he got beat up never in any situation was so inconsistent. He was to scared to continue then comes back and stamps around and threatens, yelled screams none of it seemed at all natural. He was horrible and if you like this style of film he will be the only obstacle to enjoyment.

I would call myself an avid film watcher... especially of horror films. But I also watch the latest Marvel releases and my wife forces me to watch any rom/com on Netflix the minute one comes out. Story lines people! It seems that every Marvel film, every horror film and especially every rom/com I see reuses the same old plot. Which is why I found this film refreshing. At first I thought it was interesting because I thought it was real. Then I realized it was one of those mockumentary movies. Then I started second guessing myself again. A movie that made me THINK? What a novel idea.

A fine addition to the FF genre. The best thing going for this film is it's feel of authenticity...you can almost get immersed in the story and forget that it is fiction...which is want you want when the movie is questioning whether the original movie was real or not...

As a huge fan of horror I'm always on the lookout for new movies. After a search for best found footage movies...I found this. The title of the movie is what caught my eye and after reading the summary I decided this was the movie to watch.

Mortal Remains literally hooked me within the first minute of the movie and I was glued to the TV the rest of the way. Loved it from start to finish. This movie has one of the most original ideas for a found footage movie. It's so unique. The acting is also phenomenal. The two main characters of the movie(and the creators of the movie) Chris and Mark are super likable and the fact that they have a backstory of friendship added another piece of uniqueness to this film.

I encourage anyone who is looking for a really great found footage movie to watch Mortal Remains. Dont be surprised if you find yourself asking...do I remember Karl Atticus?
