A Cold Grave

I thoroughly enjoyed watching this particular film and found it to be exceptionally interesting. One aspect that stood out to me was the unique angle taken in presenting the storyline. The incorporation of various perspectives added depth to the narrative, making it a truly engaging experience. Additionally, the utilization of pop scares and special effects enhanced the overall viewing pleasure. The well-executed moments of suspense and the visual impact of the special effects contributed significantly to the film's overall appeal. Overall, the combination of a captivating storyline, innovative angles, and effective use of cinematic elements made this viewing experience highly enjoyable for me.

Let me start out saying I am not a fan of F. F. movies but I am a fan of indie film makers trying to make a mark in today's Film Industry. For some reason I found this one to be oddly pleasing and liked it. Even my wife (she is relentless on movies) enjoyed this one. If you are into F. F. movies then you may love it and if you are not into F. F movies, it would be a hit or miss with what you enjoy. The Practical effects and SFX effects were great. The acting was good there was some over the top spots but over all it was good. There is a decent amount of jump scares. Give it a watch and make your own decisions on what you thought.

I'll start this off with Roger did carry the movie. The first scene fell flat. It just wasn't good. When Roger appears, that's when the movie starts. As great as Roger was there are long periods of him talking "into the camera". It's confusing to follow if this is found footage or not, it's definitely a hybrid of sorts. So know that going into this. Some of the sounds don't quite match what is happening on the scene...like the post production turned it up just a tad too loud. The sfx was good, light gore that was believable. The acting wasn't terrible don't let people lie to you. There are far worse out there. If you watch as much horror movies as I do then you definitely know that's the truth. Also cut them some slack damn. People gotta start somewhere.

Decent movie I'd like to see what happens to Roger next.

I have to say that I'm quite surprised that this movie was mainly just one man improvising the entire time. Unfortunately the very beginning of the movie was quite slow for me, however I was quickly pulled in with a plot twist, and from there, I was at the edge of my seat, curious as to what was going to happen next. There were some great jump scares which DBS always does well with, and the acting was phenomenal. I was especially impressed with Benjamin Newmarks acting capabilities. He played the role of Roger incredibly well.

Note: You will want to watch 'Forest of Death' to understand 'A Cold Grave' better.

I'm always down for a low budget - found footage film. This is low budget. And not a found footage film. It's a weekend project amongst "filmmakers." Many times they attempt jump scares with run of the mill sound effects and Walmart Halloween masks. The lead - clearly does not have a southern accent in real life - and is doing a piss poor job of one for the movie.

When it comes to found footage you want to create the illusion of it being real. That's why Blair with was stellar, because it felt real. B for effort but overall F for result. 85% of the movie is the lead just talking to the camera.
