Boring

This movie couldn't decide if it was comedy or horror. The problem for me is that it was neither. Its continual use of wacky camera angles and cut aways to annoying "viewers" of the allegedly "found footage" and other characters who seemed to have little or nothing to do with the movie, who did very un-informative things like in one case just stuck a finger at the camera up reeked of just trying to find things for characters to do rather than there being a plot. Oh yes plot, you could scribble that on the back of a cigarette packet. No tension no twist - unless I missed something, which would be easy as I was yawning so much. Filmed in Student-o-Rama vision it seemed. Only one person Johnny Hurn made any attempt at proper acting or creation of a half engaging character, but with no decent acting from anyone else it was just wasted. After that I have forgotten all the others characters immediately as they were that pointless. If you fancy a movie that is shot in one location that does little to hold your attention then this ones for you.
