A low-cost metaphysical horror movie. At minimal cost, the whole movie was shot in the woods and in some abandoned facilities. But the whole atmosphere, the style it created, but also the few effects, made it stand out immediately and be one of the really best low-cost films! If there was a budget it would become a pretty good film overall, it might even be close to good films, and although it's about spirits that were tortured and found violent death and therefore trapped in the facility, but also the psychic who can see and hear them, this film basically has its own story to tell. The budget constraint did not let it shine unfortunately and remained overall in mediocrity, but it certainly stands out from the other low-cost films. Overall, worth a watch, only for once, if you like the genre, but if you like watching a lot of low-cost movies, it is definitely one of the best and recommended.
I love scary movies and this was very scary! lots of jumps and the people in the film actually did sensible things which was a nice change. Acting is great - the main documentary girl looked really sincerely freaked out when all the bad things happened. I have no idea why this is rated so low, maybe people have been brainwashed into thinking a simple storyline in a freaky empty building in the middle of the Siberian forest is not complicated enough for a horror film?
So if you like scary films that have normal people in them just getting into horrific situations through no real fault of their own, I recommend this film. Scary good.

I've seem this movie at least 5 times now. I'm not sure what draws me to it. It's part found footage, part traditional film, part political statement, part supernatural thriller. There are reenactments of scenes that are claimed to be real (the scene where the patient in floating over his bed). While all together not that original it's also very intriguing. Definitely something I would recommend
Subscribed to Fangoria of course this flick was heavily promoted by them because it was a Fangoria release. Thought it would be strong and good even as it was a low budget flick coming from the UK I was rather sadly disappointed.
It's one of the thousand found footage flicks but this time it didn't work for me. It has all the typical elements, a forest, a dark house, torches, Russian accents and a history of the past concerning all elements from Russia that were scary back then.
But from the first minutes the film is started I knew this wasn't going to be my thing. When the first ghost appears in the forest it was done rather laughable. When we see the execution of prisoners even that wasn't my thing, sure, being shot in the head could look gory but it didn't.
Around the 55 minute things go wrong with a lot of bad images and loud sounds but then again that was it. So far the most creepy thing was the prisoner in the opening sequence. I never found it scary at all. This isn't a Blair Witch or even Paranormal Activity. You better go watch the real Entity (1982).

I am not usually a fan of modern horror films. Too much gore and not enough story. However, 'Entity' is a little more thoughtful than your average 'found footage' thriller. Nicely paced and shot, the film draws you in with good plot and good acting. I was particularly impressed with Branco Tomovic, who is very believable in his role as 'Yuri Levkov'. And from what I understand, 'Entity' was made on a very small budget, which is surprising considering the very professional look & feel of the film.
This is Director Steve Stone's first feature film & I think he is definitely one to watch for the future.
