    plot hole

    Big enough to fly a commercial airliner thru....... WHY Matt the ghost man demanded ghostly signs and then IGNORED ALL THE SIGNS CLEARLY EXHIBITING AROUND HIM!!! Was irritating!!!that's it! Most massive plot hole i have EVER witnessed, EVER. And that, along with the awful plot, bad acting (oh,the girlfriend's acting was PAINFULLY terrible!!) horrid character development (or lack thereof, because we never see them again!) made this an abomination for the ages!!! This was boring, not scary, slow, and just generally a dumb movie. A complete turd sandwich of a film.it's too late for me,i can't unsee this,but you can save yourself!!

    Awful

    Beats me how this film was ever released,it seems the storyline is made up as it goes along,the worst acting ever and the sound quality coming from a cheap camcorder.

    Provoked: Expectedly awful

    Provoked otherwise known as American Poltergeist (Not to be confused with the equally dire movie of the same name from the year before) this is also the 10th movie in the Paranormal Investigations franchise.

    Yet another movie revolving around a ghost hunting team this particular one see's the team failing to come up with anything and frustration kicking in. Angering a spirit one of them seems to have brought it home with him and his girlfriend.

    You probably can work out what happens next, paranormal nonsense but even then very little. Practically nothing happens and when it does it's incredibly ugly which raises the question where did the 1.5 million budget go? No, seriously. How can a movie with a budget like that, look like this?

    With the ripoff cover art, weak acting, non-existent action and recycled script this is an absolute mess alike every other Paranormal Investigation franchise movie I've seen so far.

    Dreadful stuff, incredibly making it found footage may have helped it.

    The Good:

    Nope

    The Bad:

    Hideous sfx

    Really boring

    How did this cost 1.5 million?

    About the worst it gets.

    Clearly things are bad when you have fake reviews written about this film. Truth is this film is terrible. I would nearly says watch it for some of the most hilarious bad acting ever seen, its not the fact its that bad, nut they seem to be playing it seriously. The director has obviously never filmed more than a family holiday, as the camera work is terrible, angles that are terribly framed, and then sound than changes from cut to cut. Overall, this film is a complete train wreck, watch it so long as you don't have to pay for it, cause it hilarious how wooden and bad the acting is.

    Put it this way, I actually for the first time ever came here after a decade of not using my account, reset my password, so I could write all of this, yea, that's how bad it is.

    Lacks Content

    I must address my biggest complaint with the film. When the film starts it introduces you to a whole set of characters from a "ghost hunting" team. Some establishment of character is attempted, or at least feels so. At about 30 minutes into the film, almost the entire cast is never seen from again except one. Why was the time spent explaining little nuances about the characters if you are never going to see them again? The character that the camera does stick with had the smallest build up. It felt like a waste of time. The remainder of the film is the "ghost" activity, which mostly consist of the ghost or whatever it is spooking people.

    This makes the story or complete lack there of very weak. No explanation is given to the ghost or why it was around in any way at all.

    The acting wasn't horrible. Not great by any means. Far better than your average B horror selection. Doug the plumber came off a little silly at points.

    Special note would go to some of the music which presented a very good 80's horror feel, though it was pretty limited.

    Something to watch if you have seen virtually every other available film on netflix/amazon.
