The Lost Vlog of Ruby Real

I liked the 3 lead actors. I liked the story. One of the better FF movies I've seen lately. It even gave me the chills a couple of times.

With one exception, this movie could have outdone the "Blair Witch" model for intriguing low-budget horror on its own terms. Unfortunately, it also copies the worst aspect of "Blair Witch": using profanity-laden blather -- as the easiest, lamest way to convey character discomfort -- far too much. Also, the guy yelling the largest quantity of profanities is right next to the microphone and, as such, is louder than those doing so less. The rest could be re-cut into a solid film.

The movie is not only a cheap knockoff of the Blaire Witch Project, it almost directly copies scenes from it... and, for some strange reason, from 2001 A Space Odyssey. And yet it still manages to be monotonous and boring, combining the worst of both worlds: the convoluted back story from 2001 with slow pacing of the Blair Witch. Slow and overexplained is not a good combination.

This movie was a complete bore fest. I literally spent half the time doing other things waiting for it to get better. The guy talked like he was reading off a script the whole time. It was so unbelievable it was irritating. Then the two girls fighting over the guy was just nonsense and cringe too. The random "sex" scene was so awkward it made my skin crawl. They acted like two teenagers who had no idea what they were doing. Then the entire time barely anything happens. It was so boring I was already thinking of what else I wanted to watch next. Nothing happens literally. Besides terrible filters, a few green lens flares and crappy moving wallpapers they put no effort into this. I'm actually irritated I lost an hour to this movie. Save yourself and watch something else.

I can understand why some people might not like it, but as a found footage fan I enjoyed it. The acting was okay (minus the male lead- he sounded like he was just reading lines at times). It definitely seems like a student film.

If you're into movies like the Blair Witch give it a chance. It's only an hour long.
