Ghost Crew

I thoroughly enjoyed this.

Though you can tell it's an indie production, the acting is solid, the visuals work for the setting, the plot (though low on in your face scares) is consistent and enjoyable.

If you want gore or a jumpscare every 7 minutes then Ghost Crew won't be for you but if you're after a film that features a paced build up, that feels like it's making the protagonist a little mad in his pursuit of the supernatural then I would give this a whole hearted recommendation.

But more Ghost Crew shows you don't need a film to be full on horrific imagery every few minutes to be scary.

The cast and crew should be proud of what they've done here.

That's not to say the film is perfect of course, but you don't need to be perfect to be good.

In GHOST CREW, the titular paranormal investigators venture into the ruins of a burned out hospital, in search of clues about an odd girl who wandered into one of their shots. They quickly decide that the hospital is the perfect location for their next episode.

This is an ultra-low budget, mostly "found footage" horror film. It's an extremely slow-building story, but it's helped along by some spurts of humor, and by having a fairly large cast of characters. In spite of the silliness, the final third of the movie gets a bit more frightening, and a lot more fun.

Although the "big twist" is sort of telegraphed from the very beginning, it's still handled well enough to be acceptable.

Not a bad way to spend a creepy movie night...

I really enjoyed the story, I thought it was well thought out with some really nice. I did suspect the twist from fairly early on, but I didn't mind because I did enjoy how they did their investigation for the show. Supernatural horror is my favourite actually, and this was really good.

The location was really cool as well.

It was low budget, and "found footage" but, it really works. The acting is pretty good too. It wasn't super scary with tension, but it was certainly intriguing. There wasn't any quality issues going on either, and I think this is a nice indie gem.

I was overall pleasantly surprised.

I don't normally write reviews, so I'm not great at it. I am writing this because this was my first Hex movie and I enjoyed it so much. I was sucked in at the beginning (I am totally the annoying kid in the background) and fell farther and farther as it went on. The locations were fantastic, the actors were all so great. I don't want to give away the story because if you haven't seen it yet you need to give it a watch. Ghost crew is such a charming gem and I will definitely be watching it again to pick up on all the things I missed on my first watch. Please give this movie a try you won't be disappointed.

I'm a big supporter of independent film and am in constant admiration of indie filmmakers and their art. This was a fun supernatural whodunit with a bumbling paranormal investigator on the trail of a vengeful spirit. Directo Lawrie Brewster andt the creative team have done an amazing job with the available budget and have come up with a thoroughly entertaining and engaging film.

Tom Staunton as the Ghost Crew TV show presenter and Megan Tremethick as the intern are both great with Megan's calm air of mystery complementing Tom's manic ineptitude.

I look forward to seeing more from Hex studios who made the film..
