Simply A Masterpiece

I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.

Best movie ever!

The acting is good, and the firecracker script has some excellent ideas.

That worst the worst ending I have ever seen. The suspense the thrills were there but we were giving no idea what was going on really apart from some strange lights in the sky and some odd sounds in a cave. And we have no idea what killed them at the end all we saw was screaming and blood. I feel really let down that this movie lead up to nothing.If it hadn't been for the tension leading up to the poor ending, I would've switched off this movie early on.There was some really bad pixelating and garbled sound throughout the movie, maybe this was done on purpose to suggest the found memory card(s) had some weird alien virus on them affecting the video playback, but to me it was just annoying and it kinda spoiled it for me.

So, to start off, I'd like to say that if I could rate this film lower than one, I would. While the style of editing was interesting, and the scenery was beautiful, it was not enough to redeem this abysmal mess of a film.The plot was loose, vague and vaguely incoherent. As I watched, I found myself uncertain of what was going on and why anything was happening. It felt like a bunch of found footage tropes were thrown into a film and given no real reasoning or explanation.There were plot holes everywhere, such as the "dutch hunters" and the man following the people. The mysterious "possession" of the character, with no reasonable cause behind it. Was the entity a ghost? A demon? There was absolutely no building on this plot or superstitions and it was complete tripe. Not to mention the unneeded shot of a penis, the excessive filters during the phone camera scenes, and poor special effects of blood.It was not scary, and relied on jump scares for most of the "scary" parts. Absolutely abysmal, haphazard and with a barely coherent plot.

Not scary - or smart - like another reviewer said. Boring, yes, insipid, yes and if you are waiting for something exciting to happen - see a different movie. I say this as someone who quite LIKE found footage stuff.*spoilers* Do not read on unless you want to have some of it spoiled!!In the movie the female lead says to another character 'this isn't going to be like Blair witch' Well it is - only less imaginative. It even has her crying into the camera at one point - I mean, seriously? The last frame of the movie has her crawling towards a camera which is on the ground - you can guess what happens next. I actually said it out loud. I wasn't wrong.

I caught the premiere of this movie at the Austin Films Festival last night. The experience was enhanced by the screen writers and producers being in the audience. Firstly, the cinematography was very enjoyable. Shot in Arizona by the real-life Superstition Mountains, this movie is easy on the eyes with nature shots (and Sage Howard shots) alternating with sepia scenes (for when the characters are supposedly filming on their camera phones). The film makes great use of seemingly extended pauses before any tense moment, which left us leaning forward in our seats. However, I'll admit that the jump scares and sudden loud noises got old to me after a while, because I think I jumped every time the radio came on randomly. The filming in documentary style really helped us meet the characters. I enjoyed the dilemma the main character faced in her friends' safety versus great footage for her documentary. My biggest complaint is the number of unanswered questions. Three or four plot elements were introduced and then not later addressed to my satisfaction. This added to the suspense in the case of the time warps, but in most cases distracted me because I was left curious. The ending was complete but cliché. Conclusion: Paranormal Activity with more Frights and Eye Candy.
