Reviews
Perry Kate Very very predictable, including the post credit scene !!!
Greenes Please don't spend money on this.
Murphy Howard I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.
WisdomsHammer Brief synopsis WITH spoilers so that you don't waste your time like I did: Nothing happens for the first three quarters of the movie, then the two people we're hoping die do, then we follow two girls running for their lives through a compound filled with Bigfoots (Bigfeet?), lunatics, zombies, and people in trucks talking through loudspeakers and shooting. Nothing is explained. Longer synopsis: For the first three quarters of the movie, the camera is held by a man-child with anger issues and a beautiful girlfriend. He goes camping with a buddy, Brett and his beautiful girlfriend. The documentary is apparently about Brett. Why? I missed that part. I'm not sure it matters. While camping, they hear weird noises, bushes shake, a weird guy shows up at the campsite and creeps them out before wandering off again. Understandably, no one wants to be a part of this "documentary" anymore. They just want to go home. Man-child is taking his pet project so seriously that he soon starts filming nothing just to annoy everyone. When there actually is anything to film we see blurred shapes, shaky cam, static, the light conveniently going on and off, or nothing. Then Brett disappears. The girls worry. Man-child tells them to shut up and refuses to stop being a talking asshole behind the camera, then can't understand why they don't want to talk to him anymore. Finally, we see a body part. Then a hairy creature. I'm thinking, "Cool! A Bigfoot story! Okay. I can watch a little longer.." Then another body (man-child finally bites it, thank God). Then a LOT more shaky cam and screaming while the girls run, using the camera's light to find their way. Where are they running to? We don't know. They don't know. Somehow, they end up in a walled compound. Then the movie turns into a mishmash of Bigfoot meets The Crazies meets Resident Evil or something. I still have no idea. We watch as several "things" follow the girls and should easily slaughter them because of the bright light they're carrying and all the noise they're making, not to mention them leaving shelter almost as soon as they find it. Then it's not just Bigfoot anymore, it's lunatics and people in the distance with guns in trucks. Somehow, the women manage to escape over and over again until one of them gets her head blown off in full view of the camera (it's like a single frame - blink and you'll miss it) and the other gets picked up by a helicopter which is there for some reason. Did the girls just conveniently stumble upon the place as it was falling apart and someone called a helicopter? We don't know. This thing is a MESS. I would give it more credit for creativity and turning the whole thing unexpectedly into a "secret experiments gone wrong" flick if the ending didn't rip off the movies I've already mentioned. The ending was okay, but it was a little like watching a film of someone go through a haunted house. Just a bunch of "scary things" that don't relate to each other with no explanation. They're just there to be scary. The first part of the movie had NOTHING to do with the end, and the ending just leaves you confused about what exactly you just watched. I'm not going to slam reviewers who liked this movie. I'm glad some people did. I did not.
Paul Magne Haakonsen Had I known that this was one of those mockumentary type movies with unfathomably bad camera-work, then I would never had wasted $2 on buying the DVD. And I will go as far as saying that the movie isn't even worth the disc it is pressed on.The storyline is just your typical found footage type; a group of people are filming a documentary when they find themselves in deep trouble.After having suffered through 79 minutes of unbelievably bad camera-work, I can say that this movie was bad on every level and every aspect. And it is not clear what the event actually was. Zombies? Disease? I don't know, and after the movie ended, I can't say that I really cared about what it actually was.The acting in the movie was adequate, but that did nothing to salvage this awful train wreck of a movie.As with all movies in this bad found footage genre, then the camera-work was all over the place. And that is really something that doesn't go well with me at all. If I pay money for a movie, then I expect a proper production, and not just getting something that I could make myself with my own digital video camera.I suppose that some evidence is better left unearthed, unheard of and unseen, and "Evidence" is definitely all that.
dnathanr1111 This was one of the better found footage movies i've seen. The idea was amazing and it looked amazing for only having a 12,000 dollar budget. ***SPOILERS***Basically the whole movie is about these people who go camping in the woods to discover this ape-like creature hunting them. After trying to escape, they get caught in the mix of something they were never meant to be in. They discover mutated people/animals, alien- like creatures, the same ape-like creature as before, etc. The whole area was basically an area for the military to do experiments and one of the creatures got out which caused all the others to escape as well. An obvious sign that they were in a military zone was the "Trespassing" sign they saw at the beginning and mocked the camera guy (Not good with names. Ryan i think) about his spelling. All in all, it was an AWESOME movie. So far one of the best found footage B-movies I've seen.
victoryismineblast Two guys and two girls set out in an R/V to go on a camping trip. Once there they set up their tents and start drinking. Strange noises are heard at night and the next day while on a walk, they see a glimpse of a creature they can't identify.The next night things get worse, and by the morning one of them is missing. The last 40-45 minutes of this movie I won't reveal, but are a complete 180 from the beginning and are relentless, featuring awesome special effects including one of the best head shots I have seen.Incredibly, this movie's IMDb page says this movie was made for just over $12,000, but it looks like the budget was $1,000,000. I believe it adds something new to the found footage category and the end credits sequence is extremely well done. Worth seeking out.
