La casa in fondo al lago

The logistics of making a film like 'The Deep House' are quite mind-blowing. I'd love to see a 'Making of' feature to see how they did it. The question of whether all the hard work that would've gone into it was worth it has a pretty simple answer: it was. Underwater is an epic setting for a found footage movie.

Having said that, it is not without its downsides too. It is a very dark film and can can be quite confusing and hard to track exactly what is happening a lot of the time. Also, if I'm not mistaken, the film isn't entirely found footage, as it is just too hard to expect characters underwater to be perfectly filming everything that goes on.

On the other side of the coin though, what is a more claustrophobic and creepy setting than deep under water? It just works perfectly. I found the two lead actors did a pretty good job too. For the majority of the film they are only really acting with their voices as we can't see their faces. They sold it for me. I enjoyed this one and while it didn't work in every aspect, there was enough here to keep it unique and watchable. Also stick around for a brief after-credits scene. 7/10.
