This had just the perfect mix of creepiness/horror, plus social commentary and humour (without the cringe factor). The main actor who also co-wrote and directed the movie does an incredible job of keeping your attention for so long.

There was a great combination of predictability vs. Surprise and the filming location was just perfect. Anyone who can make a movie this interesting without the budget of a Hollywood movie deserves some real recognition.

I'd love to see a movie like this get the same attention as some of the box office horror hits - total hidden gem! I am officially a forever fan.

A fun ride! Definitely brought me back to the original crazy fun Evil Dead! Not sure if they meant to pay homage to Raimi but they definitely did! Would have given a 9 but while the ending made sense just not as awesome as the rest of the movie. Hard to top Bruce Campbell as Ash but this guy playing Shawn came pretty darn close! Dang, why so many characters IMBD? I feel like I have to write an essay. Anyways to the younger generation if you enjoyed this you gotta watch Evil Dead 1981 and Evil Dead 2 which was even more campy and over the top! To my fellow Generation Xer's, who might pass it up, check it out!

To tell you the truth, I don't know what to make of this whole facade! On one hand, I was pretty amused by the comedic punchlines as well as their clever use of horror-specific elements but on the other hand, the constant tonal shifts put me out of the experience not once but multiple times!

I didn't take a look at any of the trailers, I went in completely blind and this is probably the first time I happen to regret my choice. I am certain, anyone who had seen the promos had gone in expecting a horror parody, and there was me, who anticipated something absolutely on the opposite spectrum!

Now, I do not loathe it (although I do despise the lead protagonist who caused me a ton of headaches & annoyance); but I couldn't care for it either. I have mixed feelings, in the truest sense of the word!

This movie is actually quite fun. It's a mixture of horror, jump scares and comedy. Shawn as the main character was funnier than hell. The way that he expresses his fear just had me rolling.

I half expected this movie to be dumb and low budget, but it actually wasn't. I'm usually not into cam or found footage movies, but this one was done really well. It was annoying like most found footage, where you couldn't see all that was going on. This movie nailed it though.

The evil ghost lady (no spoilers) kind of reminded me of Evil Dead, which was awesome. The make up looks just like, or very similar.

This move is really a lot of fun. I recommend watching this at least once. It put me in a better mood after I did. Like the title of my review, the movie really is a good time.

I really enjoyed this and I usually think that found footage died with the Blair Witch. Well...maybe the first Paranormal Activity and Rec also. You get vibes from Evil Dead (which many others also has commented on) and first person shooter games. The make up is quite good regarding that the film makers probably had a small budget. And I kind of like Shawn - very good take on an obnoxious youtuber that does anything for likes! Well worth a watch! You can tell that the actors had fun with this one. Oh, and the comments from the live stream viewers are hilarious!

This may do for the director's career what Paranormal Activity did for Oren Peli.
