A Cold Grave

Hits you in the face right in the beginning with what is happening and what you will see. Main character narrates the action well and pulls you in. There are some great suspenseful spots where you find yourself wanting the scene to hurry and show you what is about to happen as it makes you suffer and wait. Good twist at the end brings it full circle and teaches a lesson: don't go where others have disappeared. The acting was good. The sound and lighting can be very spotty in these indie films but this group has their act together and there were no issues throughout the film. It is a short running time which I appreciate since most movies are too long now.

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this particular film and found it to be exceptionally interesting. One aspect that stood out to me was the unique angle taken in presenting the storyline. The incorporation of various perspectives added depth to the narrative, making it a truly engaging experience. Additionally, the utilization of pop scares and special effects enhanced the overall viewing pleasure. The well-executed moments of suspense and the visual impact of the special effects contributed significantly to the film's overall appeal. Overall, the combination of a captivating storyline, innovative angles, and effective use of cinematic elements made this viewing experience highly enjoyable for me.

I'm always down for a low budget - found footage film. This is low budget. And not a found footage film. It's a weekend project amongst "filmmakers." Many times they attempt jump scares with run of the mill sound effects and Walmart Halloween masks. The lead - clearly does not have a southern accent in real life - and is doing a piss poor job of one for the movie.

When it comes to found footage you want to create the illusion of it being real. That's why Blair with was stellar, because it felt real. B for effort but overall F for result. 85% of the movie is the lead just talking to the camera.

A crazy rollercoaster ride of emotions and cameras, "A Cold Grave" tells the story of a sibling bond broken by the evils that lure & lurk in the woods.

There are plenty of creepy moments and intriguing monologues by Roger, the loving brother obsessed with finding his missing sister. He will reign down fury upon anyone that dares to get in the way of his mission!

Humor is sprinkled amongst the gore and jump scares for a nice balance. There are times where it's hard to follow the storyline and which camera is watching who and when, but there are some good performances and unique elements that make it worth the rental.

Let me start out saying I am not a fan of F. F. movies but I am a fan of indie film makers trying to make a mark in today's Film Industry. For some reason I found this one to be oddly pleasing and liked it. Even my wife (she is relentless on movies) enjoyed this one. If you are into F. F. movies then you may love it and if you are not into F. F movies, it would be a hit or miss with what you enjoy. The Practical effects and SFX effects were great. The acting was good there was some over the top spots but over all it was good. There is a decent amount of jump scares. Give it a watch and make your own decisions on what you thought.
