I'll start by openly admitting that I'm one of those people who actually enjoy found footage movies, even this type of Grave Encounters mimicry, but this was not an enjoyable experience. The set up had promise but didn't manage to deliver anything but the worst of the genre. Too many characters confused what little plot there was and the scares (even jump scares) were non existent. The atmosphere was okay and i did like the way they chopped in forward flashes of things to come but overall it failed. It failed to follow story lines through, it failed to answer any of the questions it asked, it failed to make me care about the people and it failed to scare.
It is short but when there are so many movies out there that do it right (or at least to a satisfactory standard) there's just no point in watching this one, it will disappoint.

I am usually a fan of found-footage for a few key reasons; 1. The acting is usually on par to many big-time Hollywood productions.
2. The use of practical effects over CGI makes things look more realistic.
This movie has nothing, and I mean NOTHING, redeemable, to the point where I am wondering if I should contact the creators and ask for my time back from watching their abortion. The actors are not competent enough to carry the film, and end up being more annoying than you would care to admit. Seriously, I wanted the whole cast dead within the first 35 minutes.
The story has been done ad nauseam, and so much better by more talented individuals. There are no special effects to speak of, and the few moments where anything happens are so few and far between that you begin to wonder if this movie was just an excuse for some people to be seen some twisted vanity project.
The worst offender is the neck-beard holding the camera; he was just an insufferable tool, and the constant shaking of his Tourette's like camera work actually made me nauseous, to the point of vomiting. Very rarely have I had this sensation of physically being ill from the movement of the camera in a film, and this a$$hole succeeded in that respect.
The moral of this travesty; some people are not cut out to write, direct or star in a film, and the public should make it their duty to constantly remind them of the fact. DO NOT give this movie your precious time. You will regret every grueling moment of it.

If I could leave no stars I would. The camera man must have never held a camera in his life. No idea how to handle nor work a camera. I got a migraine from attempting to watch the constant shakey, bad angles.
Constant extreme close ups and then pans out then back in. Odd angles of up nose shots, crotch shots, arm shots.
Nothing happens for more than half the movie, pointless recordings of conversations about nothing. Only entertaining actor was the hispanic guy who gave spurts of comical comments. A whole movie with bad acting, worse camera man ever in the world, story line just dragged on and on. No imagination what so ever put into this. An actual documentary would have been way more interesting than this garbage. Please who ever created this whole movie continue working a regular 9-5 and don't ever attempt making a movie again. Spare us your lack of talent.
It's not too often you can say a paranormal found footage movie is a rip-off of a specific movie. They all borrow so heavily from each other, but this one is clearly a rip-off of Grave Encounters. Classroom 6 however, is far worse. Take everything Grave Encounters did and make it cheesier, less entertaining and far less scary. The biggest difference between the 2 of Grave Encounters tried to keep the scares going for far longer. Making the breakdown of the characters far more believable and honest. Also GE felt big and maze like. This movie has an entire wing of a school and they do little with it. Overall, entire thing feels like a lazy ripoff.
Typical amateur effort of a found footage film. The production values are not terrible, though little is asked of them. The acting is not great, so there's no suspension of the sense of disbelief and as a result you feel the whole time like you're watching a college film. You don't get lost in the story like you would in a better FF film like Blair Witch or Paranormal Activity. It feels false throughout.
Another problem is it relies on the same old tired tropes that were once interesting in FF, but no longer are: the rumbling sound when something supernatural is about to happen, accompanied by the video blurring and skipping; infighting between the trapped victims; the evil spirit using the voices of already-dead victims and other people to trick the trapped victims; the tearful sign-off right before the last girl is killed. Sound familiar?
The film feels forced, is badly acted and has nothing new to say, so I wouldn't pay for it if I were you. Even if it's free it doesn't have much to say.

- TriviaDuring the shoot there were two unexplained power outages at the main college location which weren't fixed until the next day. In result to that: what had initially been planned out to be a straight 3 nights in a row shoot for main photography ended up being a 3 night with a "day off" in between each night. Shooting started on Monday and ended Friday.
