It's hard to see any effort in the film. There's no comedy to speak of, no real drama and, worst of all.

I saw this movie before reading any reviews, and I thought it was very funny. I was very surprised to see the overwhelmingly negative reviews this film received from critics.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.

I stumbled upon "Hungerford" on Netflix. I had never heard about the movie prior to finding it here, and nor did I know what it was about. I found it under the horror section, and thus I decided to give it a chance.I shouldn't have.Boy, this was a massive waste of time and effort. I managed to endure a staggering 45 minutes of the ordeal that is "Hungerford" before I gave up from several reasons.First of all, the movie was just blatantly and downright boring. There was nothing interesting in it for me, so my interest was quickly waning.Secondly, it is a handheld video camera recorded movie, one of those "documentary"-like movies. You know, the type of movie you could make yourself with your own digital video camera. That particular type of movie never appealed to me, because I want to watch a movie with a proper production value and a certain level of quality to it, not something I myself could go and make with my friends.Thirdly, the storyline was just boring and uneventful, and it didn't really help that the characters were essentially one and the same. You didn't know where one character ended and the other began. Which meant that you don't care about them in any way.And what was up with the oversized bugs that was controlling people? Interesting? Well, perhaps. I will give them that much. But was it something that helped to improve on the movie? Hardly so.I have no intention of returning to watch the rest of "Hungerford" because it just had nothing to offer me in any way.

Anyone who has read 'This Book Contains Spiders' will immediately think that idea is completely stolen from the above book mentioned by David Wong. Where spiders enter a human neck and takes control of its brain.Otherwise the film entertaining enough

...in which case, this rates as a full, pungent, and ripe Gorgonzola.And I love Gorgonzola.No, the acting isn't great, yes, the premise is tried, tested and thoroughly threadbare, and of course, the plot devices are all totally Scooby-Doo... "there's something up at the Old Factory"... Nevertheless, in this case Drew Casson has managed to make this potentially disastrous mix add up to quite a lot of goofy fun - and has done so quite possibly unintentionally. But only IF you look at it with your brain set to knowing-smirk-mode. It's all rather like the local Am-Dram society in Lower Fartington somewhere in the Home Counties decided at their annual meeting to make a dystopian apocalypse film this year, instead of their usual bedroom farce. I'm undecided as to whether Casson's setting of the whole as a personal video journal for a BTEC college project was a deliberate ruse, or merely a happy coincidence, because it feels exactly like that - a film college project, albeit a pretty good one, considering the budget.The special effects are adequate and fun, and demonstrate a good grasp of technique on a shoe-string.Whilst the acting is largely provided courtesy of the Forestry Commission, a couple of the leads do stand out against the dense woodland of the rest of the cast, particularly Georgia Bradley. Although, it has to be said that Casson's talent definitely lies firmly behind the lens, rather than in front of it. So no, it's not brilliant by any means (c'mon, you weren't really expecting that we're you?), but it IS fun, even funny at times, albeit perhaps unintentionally. If you like your cheese robust and smelly, this is perfect for you.Go on, dig in!

I had hopes for this B grade movie but after watching 30 minutes or so I realized I was to generous with the "B Grade".Bad acting, bad actors, especially the lead actor who was so over dramatic in some scenes it bordered on sickening.Bad direction thorough out the film especially the car crash scene, and way to many more to mention.The director who I just found out is the lead actor as well (That answers a lot of questions) should really look for another line of work as Directing is definitely not his strong suit.I could keep going with what is wrong with this film but it's really not even worth my time complaining about it.
