Lurking

So I mainly think this is worth a watch because of a creepy scene later on in the movie when our two protagonists communicate with a distressed 'person' on a walkie-talkie. It's really effective and done well. I won't say much more about the plot but this is a slow one and not for everybody.

We have an irritating lead protagonist who needs a punch in the mouth but his companion the cameraman really sells it with his dialogue he makes you laugh and feels really natural. The acting and dialogue exchange between these two is great.

The movie as a whole does take a while but I like how it actually looks like real found footage. This was apparently shot in like 4 days and it's completely free to watch as it's on YouTube so id say give it a go.

6/10.

This is a genuinely disturbing and frightening found footage move made by three young and very determined filmmakers. The basic plot is that one character has discovered footage created by two other young filmmakers who are trying to document a mythical creature known as the Goatman. There's a lot that's a little too found footage for me, but about halfway through things start getting really creepy and scary. The ending is totally unexpected. I've been following their later efforts and their technique is growing by leaps and bounds. If they continue to grow I expect to find them make it in the industry. I wish them the best.

The first full length feature from the micro budget british team Unhinged Pictures hit us with an intriguing slow burn found footage.

The main storyline is pretty decent, depending on who you are you may find it drags and has too much talking. But I honestly find our 2 main characters fun to listen to. They are searching for the infamous 'Goatman' and its a great choice for this film as it's a terrifying urban legend which needs more recognition.

Later in the film we have a scene where they talk to a 'person' on a radio which is easily the best scene and it's superbly made, which you would not expect from filmmakers with this budget. It's very creepy and just keeps you wondering. I won't say much more than that. It's not as entertaining and fun as Director Henry Richardson's most recent film 'Hayfever', but if you prefer to be creeped out rather than thrilled and grossed out, give this found footage a chance.
