Last Radio Call

This was hyped up on social media, but I still jumped in pretty blind as to what it was about. Was surprised to see Sarah Froelich, from noise band Consumer Electronics, as the lead here. A band that I enjoy. Last Radio Call started out promising, but soon started showing the usual found footage horror clichés of jump scares (that didn't work), as well as good but over the top sound design, and the usual shaky cam with static and glitches. 20 minutes in and a ghost girl looks up and screams at the camera. That was enough for me.

Not sure I would say avoid, as this film does have an interesting opening and the first 20 minutes are actually pretty strong. That doesn't quite salvage the rest of the film. Last Radio Call is a touch to cliche to call original. Don't go in expecting the next Blair Witch.

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.

Not the best, but certainly not the worst "found footage" movie I've seen.

It's not filled with annoying teenagers arguing on a road trip.

It's not a group of people making stupid decisions.

The acting is fine. Some good jump scares. Don't get me wrong it's not "Grave Encounters". But I enjoyed it.

Only an hour and Fifteen minutes long, so quite quickly to the scary bits. If you really can't stand found footage films, obviously it's not going to be for you.

But if you like the genre , give it a go. And watch it with the lights out!

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.
