The Investigation: A Haunting in Sherwood

Okay, so the pacing was slow, and the ending predictable, however the movie had a solid creepy vibe. It was a great movie to listen to and peek at as I did some housework because it was easy to follow. The acting was decent. There was a beginning, middle and end. Not an award winning movie but definitely high ranking in the category of "enjoyable movie while I do some boring things around the house". Word of caution, could not hold my attention if I were to truly watch it. You have to have something else to do in order to enjoy it!

One of the better found footage films I've watched recently. I liked the premise of an investigator tapping someone's home security system so he can put his feet up and do his job from home, only for things to get out of hand.

Decent actors, decent pace, I found it simple but effective. If you view it as a micro-budget film, they've made the most out of what they had to work with.

I wish I could unsee that fake boring "movie". It literally sucked.

I have never given a movie less than 2 stars before.... until now. Terrible acting, zero scares or atmosphere, and a ghost voice that sounds like a drunken pensioner coming home from a night at the pub, and having a major asthma attack whilst ringing a taxi. Seriously folks. Its that bad.

Poltergeist-type films always get under my skin. I saw the 2023 Sherwood film a while back, but it wasn't as scary as I hoped. However, this prequel creeped me out so much I had to stop watching it late at night. (Although many bumps and scares occurred during the day!) I returned to watch it the next afternoon and am still just as unsettled. The concept of the insurance investigator spying on the house and witnessing everything in real time was excellent. Then, when he got the first knocks at his door, I knew there'd be big trouble for him.

I'm still curious about the origins of the house. It sounds like a wheezy, angry old sod who doesn't want people living there.
