Last Radio Call

Ok, the basic plot is that a policeman goes missing while investigating a disturbance at an abandoned hospital. After some of his body cam footage is leaked on the internet, his wife sets out to find out what actually happened. I have watched a lot of found footage movies, and I really felt this one had potential. But as is the case with many in this genre, the story dissolves into a disjointed and confusing mess. It seems like the director is trying to cram a 2 hour story into the measly 75 minutes this one runs for. (and that includes opening and closing credits.) There is really only one main character in the movie, the wife and she does a reasonable job of it. But to be honest she has very little to work with. There are so many gaping holes in the plot, and things left unexplained or that don't make sense, it really did feel like large chunks had been removed from the movie.

Oh man, this was a tough watch. From the beginning of the film, you are bombarded by bad acting and I don't know about any of you, but it immediately ruins the atmosphere of any film for me. From the lead actress to every single supporting character, everyone was absolutely horrid to the point where you start to wonder just how these people got their parts in the first place. They had to read for the roles and audition for them, right? So how could anyone hear their deadpan delivery and atrocious inflections and think, "Yes! I've found my actors!!"?!? I just don't get it. Nepotism and special favors aside, hiring untalented friends and family to work on your movie is asinine and always yields an abomination of a film. It's sad that an otherwise decent story was ruined by such laughable acting, but it goes to show that no matter how tight the script, how big or small your budget or how much you spend on your SFX, if you actors suck, you will always end up with trash.

Avoid this movie and let it be forgotten, as it deserves to be.

A cop answers a call at the spookiest hospital in the whole USA. His wife gets his body cam tapes and tries to find out what happened to him because he's gone missing. Nobody, including the force, will help her or even talk to her. As much as I love FF this one is just ok. The wife hires a film maker to document her search for answers, but things don't go well for her.

Another super low budget found footage movie with a predictable script and ending. There are a couple of jump scares but the majority of the movie takes place in the same set piece at the abandoned hospital and that gets old really quick. I thank the makers for the short run time, like 1 hour and 15 minutes, instead of torturing us for a full two hours.

Not even a good drinking movie. There is simply not much there to enjoy.

The trailer and the movie poster instantly sold me. I'm a sucker for found footage so it drew me in that this would be the concept mixed with a mockumentary style. Unfortunately the pain came quickly realizing none of the actors had any acting skills. It's as if friends and family were asked to participate in this movie because there was no budget to pay actors. I only sat there for about 30 minutes before realizing it was not going to get better. Between the script, the acting and the odd flow of the storyline, and all the characters abnormal behavior it was pretty bad. Scaling on an amateur level I give them credit for the little camera tricks that were attempted (except for the fake head. Like at least add some fake blood or something we can see it's plastic). All in all I would not go back and give this one a second chance. Nice try but try again because it just didn't land. My bad for not reading the reviews first. I did appreciate the location they used for the hospital. Nice job there.
