Clever, very well done.
This has been described as a “slow burn” horror movie, but the pacing is fairly even in my opinion. The lore and central narrative are very interesting and it kept me interested the whole time. The special effects in the last 45 minutes are impressive for a film from 2005. This one of the better found footage movies. Take most negative reviews of this or any film like it with a huge dose of salt. It seems like most people can’t stand a movie with something happening every 45 seconds. Put your phone down, turn off the lights

Fantastic. Loved every minute.
Drawn out. Some of the scares were okay but GOD this couldve been like a 20 min film
