I bought this along with 9 other movies in a set from a $5 bin somewhere ... Honestly wasn't expecting anything, I just like to buy the sets and see how bad some can be. But this was one of those movies that was actually good. The beginning wasn't slow, but for some who like it to grab you right away please be patient. Gave me a few good jumps throughout the movies as well as the anticipation of something to come. I easily get bored and lose attention sometimes, but this had my attention the whole time.
... View MoreI'm not sure if this will actually have spoilers but I hit the button just in case. This movie takes a minute to get going but once it does it's quite creepy. There is some over acting and there are some holes in the story line (like why no one seemed very concerned when the other cast members came up missing or what happened to them) but all in all it is a good horror flick.There are a ton of found footage films popping up everywhere and a lot of them leave something to be desired (to say the least). This one definitely could have had some improvements, but as far as the found footage genre it's one of the better ones I've seen. The plot is not really unique, it's been done before, but the actors and effects compliment each other enough to make this movie a surprisingly eerie and creepy film. I was not expecting to get as creeped out as I did. It is definitely worth a watch if you're looking for something to give you the chills. I was pleasantly surprised by this movie and I think it was more successful than disappointing. I'd recommend it for horror buffs, especially fans of the found footage genre.
... View MoreA surprisingly competent horror movie. I enjoy supernatural horror without the gore, and with a 5,000 clam budget, these folk pulled it off. The acting was decent, but could have used a little less of the actors yelling over each other, a little less of the over dramatic and a lot less of the f word. I don't understand the over use of the f word in horror flicks these days. It adds nothing, but directors just don't seem to realize this. Still, I enjoyed this flick. The props used were effective and the ghosts were solid. There were the usual flaws that are seen in practically every horror flick. Most horror movies fall down because the characters are too stupid to see the evil that is befalling them, and the characters in this movie qualify as exceptionally stupid.
... View MoreThe first 30-40 minutes are rough to watch, but the movie gets better from there. It was the first time in a long time that I actually jumped at a couple scenes. My recommendation is to watch it as if you and some friends were filming it, rather than watching it as you would a main stream horror film. Based on pure "scared feeling", i chose to give it a 6, which I believe is why you would watch a movie like this. If you are looking for great effects and A list acting, then continue your search. Overall, I would recommend it to a friend, but I would say to rent rather than buy it.No drugs/alcohol/sex. Scene with very light violence. Excessive swearing.
