The Dooms Chapel Horror

Way too slow. Acting was so-so. I think it was a good concept but the storyline did not do it justice.

94 minutes that feel like 3 hours.After an interesting opening premise is presented the move dwindles into a blithering mess of bad acting, pointless and unbelievable story and absence of any tension or true horror. Even as a lover of the most low budget of 'cam' movies, this movie is the worst of the worst. By the end of the movie everyone seems to have a camera somewhere in the right place. People in their most awkward moments are not worried about the cameras.Seems like in the middle of this small town out in the country there are cameras everywhere to capture everything! The acting is painfully bad. What makes matters worse is the actors appear to be trying their hardest to be convincing, but man do they fail. There is a huge plot hole regarding the reaction of the female leads character to a "branding" on the main characters chest that is just obvious to anyone with a brain.

It feels as long as TITANIC and AVATAR combined. Has no tension, no scares, mediocre gore effects and is a confusing long winded attempt at something that has been done many times.

I guess I'm getting tired of the typical red neck round up. Shades Pumpkinhead with inconsistent camera perspectives. Near the end, we are now in Doom gun mode. The acting wasn't that bad. A few things were really drawn out. Would have been better as a short film.

The Doom's Chapel Horror is an homage to 80's monster flicks with a Blair Witchian 'found footage' kind of spin. I usually run the other way when I hear FOUND FOOTAGE but some films can pull it off. The DCH brings it all together with some good suspense, action and enough skin and gore to warrant repeat viewings. The casting and acting are WAY above your weekend SYFY and CHILLER fare and I recommend it.

The unique soundtrack was composed by musician Josh Coffey.

Standout performances by Bill Oberst, Jr. as the cult leader and Steve Crowley as the town sheriff.

Shot mostly on location in West KY.

The score for this film in my opinion was positively perfect for setting up the very creepy feeling that grows throughout.

I think for too long, found footage has been considered "a single camera medium" and I enjoyed the somewhat vagueness of not having my hand held throughout the story. I appreciate the opportunity given to the audience to connect the dots, so to speak and the risk taken to try something new.

The direction, costumes and production nailed it. I was pleasantly surprised with this Indie Film and believe we will see great works from the Director, John Holt, many of the actors; Alan Walters & Austin Madding and even the Producer, Christopher Bower in the future.
