15 Cameras - Schau nicht weg!

It's incredible to me that the '13 Cameras' series has somehow become one of the most consistently good horror trilogies. Three films and they're all great in their own way. '15 Cameras' changes the formula up a bit, but it does it in a really interesting and twisted way. This film was a blast.

I usually dislike horror movies where the majority of the film is set during the day, however '15 Cameras' proved that it can work. It also proved that you can have a dark and twisted film without someone having to die every 10 minutes. There is actually very little in the way of kills or even on-screen danger for the majority of the film, however there is still always an unease and darkness readily apparent.

I love the concept of a regular and good person being put in a chance position that corrupts them and turns them into something they weren't before. That is really interesting to me. This film was a good time. 8.5/10.

Three is a crowd - no wait that's not it .. also no pun intended. In case you are similar to me you may not know that this is the third movie in a series ... the first one is 13 cameras ... and then 14 cameras was the second one. Now it is not only the title that is changing (or the amount of cameras) ... although to be fair, the second one felt a bit too close to the first one. Different but same, if that makes sense.

This one has a special twist (to do with the cameras I suppose), but it also tells the story a bit differently ... I would like to state that not everyone would "seize" the opportunity as the main character does here. It will be a bit tough to root for him - for that and many other reasons. The actor tries his best to make him at least a bit likeable ... especially towards the end ... but even having the shadow (and then some) of someone way more evil hanging over his head (behind his back?) ... well it ain't going to cut it ... might be the best of them all ... but still not sure if it is worth it all ... or worth watching all the movies just for a climax ... acting is quite good for the genre.

This one for sure had a very different vibe than the first two. While the previous ones were darker and creepier, this one was more light hearted and almost sillier.

As a stand alone I thought that this style and vibe was fine, but as a third in this series I didn't really think it matched up all that well and the cohesion wasn't there for me. Personally, I would have preferred it to have kept the same atmosphere as it's predecessors... but as I said, as a stand alone it was generally entertaining.

The acting was good across the board. The same as my sentiments for this movie within the trio, I feel similarly about the actor who played Cam. I thought he did a good job with the character and he is a good actor, however I did not like him in this movie within this series. I just didn't think his delivery matched the tone of the movie or the greater work as a whole.

Despite all of this, they still did a good job with this movie. As far as picture quality, shots and editing goes, this one was superior out of the three. They put a nice little twist onto it that made it stand out from the prior two and didn't just regurgitate the same movie for a third time. It was a positive experience at the end of the day and while it wasn't anything extraordinary, if you enjoyed the first two I would recommend you view this one as well.

I really had no expectations at all when I started watching this film. I knew about the first 2 movies and that it was on the lower budget side so there wasn't much to anticipate for.

However, after watching many mediocre films released for Halloween 2023, I have to say that this one pleasantly surprised me! It's no masterpiece but the acting, directing and plot were very decent. It also had some comedic/cringy moments that really worked for me (yeah, I'm talking about the husband). I'd like to see more from the team behind it (including the actors).

Overall a good watch for horror fans who watch all kinds of horror movies and not only the big budget ones.

Moving into a new duplex, a couple living with her friend decide to rent out the lower level to a group of college students to help pay off the investment, but the more they stay there find the influence of the Slumlord previous owner who lived there effecting their lives and try to stop him from following in the footsteps.

This was a decent enough if overall flawed genre effort. Among its likable factors are the intriguing setup that actually tries to do something clever and creative in the series. Using the events of the previous entries as fodder for a true crime retrospective series and offering up the new couple moving into the house is a pretty solid idea to try something new. The revelation that they're in his old house and able to spy on those in the house through the same setup is a fine way to tie everything together as his growing obsession with the same thing he did by torturing those he spent time observing secretly through the cameras. As the tension here comes about through some chilling stalking and brutal encounters that feature some fine deaths in store as well, all make for a fun enough time here. However, there are some big issues here. The main factor against this one is the overall lack of interest in what's going on throughout here. The true crime obsession that she has makes for a genuinely dull time here simply relying on watching the reenactments of everything which isn't that interesting to see play out which is the same as the storyline for the boyfriend. His descent into the same obsessive behavior as him seems way too quickly to be realistic which is so instantaneous after discovering the existence of the setup in the house. Being the one who wasn't interested in the material to begin with, this feels even more troubling as he's thrust into this role so quickly it causes everyone around him to overlook the behavior so it's pretty dull until the finale on top of being stupid.
