Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Pacionsbo Absolutely Fantastic
Ava-Grace Willis Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Delight Yes, absolutely, there is fun to be had, as well as many, many things to go boom, all amid an atmospheric urban jungle.
tmdarby Found footage movies are okay if they are done right. This one was done pretty well. I liked the plot quite a bit, and it was an interesting take on Andrei Chikatilo. The people that made this movie also must have done a fair amount of research into Chikatilo because they did a great job relaying his story. A lot of movies don't do that any more. They paid subtle respect to the true story of that real monster in a lot of ways that people may not have noticed. Chikatilo did most of his murders in rowed forest area's, just like where they are in the movie. The information about his brother is very accurate, according to Chikatilo anyway. The acting was pretty well done for a low budget movie, and it was a very creepy story.A lot of the criticism on here isn't warranted. It seems if the story doesn't hit you over the head with the plot now days people don't get it. It's fun to have to think about what happened, give it a try. Also the camera was shaky because that's how a found footage movie should look.Honestly I thought it was a pretty good film.
Argemaluco Ghoul is an absolutely execrable pseudo-documentary "horror" film with hateful characters who videotape every second from their useless lives and have never-ending arguments in order to fill in the time between "terrifying" moments which don't generate any terror, suspense or even surprise. The only positive thing about this piece of junk is that it lasts for only 86 minutes, so the holy end credits don't take too long to show up. And the least I say about the actors, the better... their performances make their characters even more hateful than they already are. The screenplay is a confusing parade of unconnected ideas which desperately try to wake any interest on us; in other words, we have a cannibal, ghost appearances, demonic possession, spiritualist sessions, dark catacombs, a post-Soviet witch and videos from a serial killer... anything to fill in the time and unnecessarily complicate the awful screenplay. Might we have reached the lowest point in "found footage" cinema? Might things get better after this vomitive film? I don't think so. In fact, it seems that things can always fall lower in this type of cinema. "Hope is a mistake", like Max Rockatansky says in Mad Max: Fury Road. If you excuse me, I'm going to rewatch that masterpiece in order to erase Ghoul from my memory.
leothelionvideos I don't know what movie the other reviewers were watching but I think they must be associated with the movie because it was More Than Terrible. I never rate movies but I felt I must warn my fellow movie lovers of this travesty.I go to the movies all the time and I never want to leave or ask for my money back but this movie made me want to do both. It was like a really badly made "Blair Witch" copy but with a much lower budget and worse actors and writers. It kept promising scares and action (and a plot) but never delivered. I believe a bunch of 5 year olds could have made a better movie. Stay Away unless you just like wasting money...
David Kennedy I went to see GHOUL with my recent-college-grad son and college-age daughter. I ended up wearing part of her popcorn when one of the shots scared the heck out of her. Too funny, at the time, but also a testimony to some nice crafting by the filmmakers. (Okay, maybe I jumped a little, too). Very interesting and creative use of actual historical events and real persons to create a horror movie that was made the impossible plausible, was fun to watch, and which was genuinely creepy in parts.I also bought into the basic "quest" behind the movie -- a group of movie makers investigate an actual cannibalism event for a reality show -- largely, I think, because GHOUL set up the fictional "reality" with actual historical shots of famine victims and extremely creepy shots of the base character - a real life, modern-day, convicted "cannibal", among others.For me, this blending of reality with fiction effectively jump-started, and then maintained, the story with a solid dose of plausibility.The characters who set up the supposed "reality" were also well-played and believable; in fact, their "normality" was critical to keeping me "in" the movie.All in all, a "participation" / "popcorn" movie well worth seeing, even if you end up wearing some of it.
