Watch The Pyramid For Free

That was an excellent one.

It's no definitive masterpiece but it's damn close.

Simple and well acted, it has tension enough to knot the stomach.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

As other reviewers have mentioned, THE PYRAMID is a found footage horror movie with an interesting premise but poor quality execution. It starts off fairly well, with hints at political background and some good plotting, before descending into the usual gamut of inane screaming and running around in the second half. Literally the whole second half of the movie consists of characters wandering through dark rooms and getting killed one by one; it's predictable and annoying. The lack of good cast members hurts the film too, with the guy from THE INBETWEENERS hardly qualifying as a quality addition to the mix. One of the few good things I can say is that the CGI work isn't too shabby.

I really enjoyed this film, I didn't have high hopes due to some of the other reviews on here - perhaps my expectations being low led to me enjoying this more than I "should" have?! I thought the sets, props and effects were very good. The music wasn't overbearing either and added to the atmosphere. I thought James Buckley was very good in his role,that was my biggest worry going into this film, having only ever seen him in The Inbetweeners before this. It was also pretty cool to see Denis O'Hare in something outside of American Horror Story. My only criticism of this film would be it needs to make up it's mind whether it's a found footage or regular film, as in the second half especially it jumps from one to the other, which takes you out of the moment slightly. If you like to watch a film to take you away from reality and not have to think about anything for a couple of hours, you'll enjoy this film. If you're looking for something groundbreaking - keep searching!

A team of intrepid archaeologists and documentary film makers become lost in the bowels of a mysterious 3-sided pyramid, where they find themselves faced with deadly pitfalls, menaced by flesh-eating sphinx cats and hunted by the jackal-headed Egyptian god Anubis, who tears out his victims' hearts.Many a found-footage horror film should carry a warning: Caution! May cause nausea and drowsiness. The Pyramid, however, is one of those rare instances where the hand-held camera style is not too intrusive and the horror aspect is gripping enough to prevent the viewer from nodding off.Admittedly, the script isn't all that original, borrowing heavily from hits such as The Descent (a claustrophobic subterranean location is home to deadly creatures), The Blair Witch Project (characters become lost and are attacked by a legendary being) and even Raiders of the Lost Ark (an Egyptian temple is laden with labyrinthine passageways and booby traps), but first-time director Grégory Levasseur injects enough suspense, effective scares, intriguing mythology and gory thrills into proceedings to make this a fun ride despite the over familiarity of the material and the rather ropey looking CGI Anubis.6/10. Many IMDb reviewers have been rather harsh about this film. I, on the other hand, may have been a touch too generous with my appraisal (I'm a sucker for 'lost temple' adventures). The truth is there are a lot worse films you could be wasting your time with.

First, Ashley Hinshaw needs more acting lessons, and a cheeseburger. I kid you not, she delivered lines bending forward at the waist gesturing with her hands, making every 6th grade acting student sad. Second, there are MANY compelling parts, despite her bad acting: 1. travel through dark pyramid, often through small spaces, 2. quick moving "alien" type nasty cats, 3. WONDERFUL sand suffocation scene, 4. ACTUAL Anubis. THEN, the ending. Ashley (don't know her name in the movie - her acting wasn't good enough to seem like an actual character) just stabbed this Egyptian god, and stuck a flare in its face, and got away. Seems like an entity that had survived for 6-8 thousand years may be a little more hardy. She just gets to light, and passes out? Then Anubis just eats some random boy? And does what? So disappointing.
