This movie features two lily-livered cowards as its main protagonists. They share no on screen chemistry, and the actors struggle to deliver wooden, staid dialogue. Joe, our male protagonist, is notable for wearing the same sweaty shirt long after he has the opportunity to change and towards the end of the film insists upon going shirtless (sadly) as a way to affirm his control of the situation. Lisa has fat ankles and reacts in terror to such things as locked gates, barns and the use of spare keys.For most of the film, nothing happens, so we get to enjoy spending quality time with these two annoying people who are of no interest whatsoever. In one such scene, the character of Joe watches his fiancé play with a hula hoop outside and reacting as if she's trying to do some kind of skateboard stunt, all with the, "Oh my god!"s and the "Are you serious?!"s.In another scene, we get to watch the two characters eat snacks. In another, they discuss how abnormal it is for people over the age of fifty to enjoy pizza and cookies (????).Unlike other found footage films like Blair Witch Project or Paranormal Activity, or even Grave Encounters, there's no sense of mounting dread or heightened stakes. All the viewer receives is torturous footage of two people running around a farm. These characters have milk for blood, I swear. They react to the most innocuous of phenomena like Scooby and Shaggy.The conditions keeping them present in the situation which is apparently so terrifying for them (not so much for us) are contrived and plain idiotic. During the last five minutes, the director blows all of his budget at once and it heads towards the mindless, mind-numbing and derivative ending for found-footage films which has become an unfortunate staple of the genre.I would advise anyone not to watch this dreck unless you require a sleeping aid and pills are no longer effective.

I am thoroughly amazed that this film boast several awards! The fact that it is an award winning Indy film, and its interesting description made me an eager viewer...but I am now sorry I wasted 5 bucks through On Demand and my time on a Sunday afternoon....I barely made it through the first 25 minutes before I was on the fence about turning it off....the female actress is, in a word: AWFUL. Her annoying forced laughs, sighs and tee hees for the benefit of the camera became just excruciating to listen to...it was painfully obvious that they were trying really hard to "act" like a couple in love, but when there's no chemistry, there's no magic for the screen. It is simply NOT believable. To make this film work, you need that....you need the audience to invest in the characters, to care about them, to BELIEVE they are REAL.PEOPLE. Especially with found footage genre, these are supposed to be real film footage clips...and people in real life do not act that way with each other...whoever cast her was an idiot because it blew the film. She isn't a very pretty girl either, so the shots of her porky legs and feet while she sighs and babbles to herself about how excited she is looking at her ring made it even more difficult to watch. Good looks draw people in but its the chemistry on screen, that believability factor, that keeps them riveted. This girl has neither and that becomes annoying and boring to watch. That's a waste of my time and money. The male actor wasn't much better....but he was better than her and with the right female lead he might have been better than he was...I had to fast forward through him eating an apple, for me, that was the scariest scene in the movie...just disgusting. I will say she gives a good scream and the more action that went on towards the end, the better they were because they had something to work with in the scenes besides just themselves. When it was just the 2 of them improv-ing their relationship (which could have been cute, funny, sweet and magical, I mean he proposed!) But it was the most unromantic, boring proposal ever! Because they were NOT believable as a couple. The reason The Blair Witch Project was so successful was in great part due to the fantastic job the actors did...they had real chemistry with each other, they were real friends...the audience came to care about them as people because they were very real with each other and not at all "acting" for the camera. This film needed that, too many viewers will be lost before any action even takes place because the director failed to realize the importance of chemistry even in the most simple and monotonous of daily human interactions. What a shame!

I was first introduced to this amazing found footage film "UNAWARE" when submitted to the 2011 Indie Horror Film Festival where if won Best Feature & Best Special Effects. When I first started screening the film I was a bit skeptical of the quality, but it is indeed a found footage film so I gave it some time. The first 30 minutes had me convinced it wouldn't amount to much, but then the creepy clues of something so much bigger started to appear. These quick peeks and clues certainly captured my interest and built much suspense along with the couple in the film. I don't want to spoil it, but the pay off is great! In this film you get compassion, you get anger, you get suspense, you get shock, you get scare and you get satisfied!
