Things Unknown

Is it groundbreaking? No. Does it add something new to the genre? Not really. But if you like found footage films it's definitely worth a watch. Even if you don't like found footage many of you will still inexplicably watch it and then skew it's rating with a one star review whining how much you hate found footage movies. To the annoyance of the rest of us who do.

The characters aren't super fleshed out but are still played well by the 3 main characters. Most youtubers with somewhat annoying, over the top personalities are usually playing a character by are pretty normal when the cameras are off. Since they always have the camera rolling their over the top personalities don't really stop. The girl is pretty hot though so that definitely helps.

It takes a while to really get going but there are some pretty cool scenes in this movie. Especially the spectacle they witness in the sky. Not bad special effects for a seemingly low budget FF movie.

The tension builds at a good pace throughout with unexplainable things happening, leaving our main characters increasing frightened. With a pretty good of not kind of predictable ending.

It's definitely not one of the best FF movies out. Certainly no Blair Witch, Willow Creek, Creep, Grave Encounters or Possession of Michael King. It's not even the best alien FF movie. Alien Abduction and the Alien Report were definitely better. But I can definitely recommend to anyone who enjoys the genre and you're looking for something to watch.
