American Descent
In 2014, Sergeant First Class Stephen Harris edited and uploaded this film. It was his message to the world. A group of teenagers are sent an unlabeled DVD from a U.S. Army base in Afghanistan containing a video of a strange woman tied to a tree. It ends with a clue. The teens follow the clue to another and yet another, until what started out as a game becomes a terrifying chase into the psychopathic mind of Harris. At the end of the line, the teens' world comes full circle as they discover they weren't just playing a game, they were pawns in a revenge plot only a master of war could devise.

Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.
This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.
Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.
I am not going to review this garbage extensively. Just do yourself a favour, and don't bother. That will be 80 minutes of your life you do not waste. As an actual review is required to be 10 lines minimum apparently, I need to write a little more. Pretty much all of the movie is filmed in hand-held cam mode. The acting is OK from maybe 2 of the cast, and incredibly wooden from the rest. The story is ludicrous. Some kids get sent some footage of a crime, ponder whether or not it is real, and investigate. The realism detector did not budge at all. I like the clichéd suspension of disbelief, but this was just absurd, and unenjoyable. And the payoff to the whole story...predictably weak. Seriously. Don't bother.
