Spirit in the Woods (2014)
I want my time back
So let me say that I am a more fan of the "found footage" horror. To me low budget horror, with smaller budgets, have to rely on more psychological scares instead of effects and are by far supreme. So I always give found footage a chance and my god this was torture. They stretched out a bunch of nonsense for 2 hours with 2 minutes of anything resembling a "scare." Their version of horror is people saying "what's that" and there being nothing. The build up is pathetic, the story of the woods is laughable, the "interviews" are entirely too long and full of stuff you already know. The long drawn out scenes are torture. The acting in my daughters 4th grade play was more believable. This movie was free On Demand and I still feel like I got ripped off. I had high hopes for this movie and boy did they fail. Do not waste your time.
Help! I'm in a Secret Relationship! (2022)
WOW THE ACTING
Let me start off by saying I love cheese acting/low budget movies. However, this TV show has the WORST acting I have ever seen. I have seen more realistic acting froma play my child was in in the 3rd grade. The story lines are so over the top, there is zero emotion, and they find the fakest actors you could possibly find. I love MTV Catfish but this show is an absolute trainwreck. It reminds me of the terrible acting on another garbage reality show duck dynasty. Do not waste your time or energy. I wanted to like this show, hell it might have the ability to be good. But I think MTV execs have realized, after teen mom and jersey shore, that they can basically film anything and people will watch it.
Xing lin yi yuan (2020)
Ignore the low reviews
Honestly too many people these days expect every movie to win a golden globe and have the top of the line special effects (hence the negative/lame reviews) If you are a serious fan of all horror genres (from slasher to B movie to ghost and found footage) then you will enjoy this movie. Personally I liked this movie. Obviously it isn't going to win any awards and after all the reviews I expected it to be garbage like Hell House 2. However, I was pleasantly surprised and actually enjoyed it. Any movie set in an abandoned hospital or psych ward is already off to a good start and the premise is not bad. Ya certain things like the time line and some acting/effects are not perfect but what do you honestly expect from a low budget horror? If you can go into this movie with a love of horror, no expectations, and an open mind you might actually enjoy it.
Hell House LLC II: The Abaddon Hotel (2018)
Another sequel that is garbage
I was so excited when I found this as Hell House is my favorite scary movie. The original Hell House was amazing with a fantastic build up and suspense. This movie took everything good about the original and did the exact opposite. It is awful and I LOVE horror movies including found footage and B horror. My two young children sat down and laughed thru this entire movie. 5 minutes in I hated everyone involved with this movie. The acting is worse than every single play I have ever seen at my kids elementary school. Instead of watching this rub sand in your eyes.....you will find it more enjoyable. There is no buildup, no suspense and the ending is the worst. The only good part of the ending is that the movie is over. Hopefully these "actors" found other jobs because I dont think acting is going to pan out for them.
Hell House LLC (2015)
love
I have always loved horror movies and found this one a few years ago. Has become one of my favorites. If you hate found footage films dont watch. Do yourself a favor and watch
Entity (2012)
good movie minus lead actress
Movie is actually pretty good even though the lead actresses "attempt" and acting is laughable
