    Homemade found footage film is really bad

    THE FINAL PROJECT is another homemade found footage horror in which absolutely nothing happens other than a bunch of shaky camera work and a whole lot of bad acting and screaming. The storyline, if it can be described as such, involves a bunch of students who decide to visit a haunted plantation for a school project. On arrival they interview a bunch of locations, arrive on location...and you can guess the rest.

    Very little happens in terms of incident in this film. There's no gore, danger, or suspense, just a lot of reacting to stuff the viewer isn't involved with. About one person gets killed on screen and the rest is just a noisy blur. This found footage film is definitely at the lower end of the scale with an almost entire lack of characterisation and near-constant screaming that makes it a very difficult watch. It's about on par with Michael Rooker's THE LOST EPISODE in terms of quality, i.e. at the very bottom of the barrel.

    Final Project got on my Final nerve!

    Yet another supposedly real found footage film made by a group of student. absolutely nothing happens in this film no ghost no acting not much of anything.

    It follows the usual cliche, scary building, supposedly haunted, interview the town, spend the night. OK good im down with that plenty of indie films have followed the exact same formula and been ok some even great this how ever is not one of them.

    1st point i want to mention is the camera quality is complete trash. i understand its a low budget horror but in 2016 even mobile phones have superior quality, in the darker scene's i genuinely couldn't make out what was going on or who was talking to who, but a part of this was i couldn't care less about any of the characters, which brings me to point number 2.

    The acting just came across forced and lazy, i found myself switching off and not paying attention. my eyes just seemed to glaze over as i forced myself to finish the film to its end. you've got all the usual typecasts in this, the flirty, the smart one the geeky one the macho one, like a really REALLY!! bad set of power rangers which at this point i would rather watch.

    And number 3 the sound quality is just horrendous a lot of static and popping sounds but that,s preferable to the consistent screaming every 2 minutes, and that's literally the scariest thing in this film is a girl screaming that's it.

    The final project is not worth the watch its lazy it doesn't try and its just bad, i would rather put toothpicks under my toenails and kick the wall than have to watch this again.

    So Terrible

    I actually had to fast forward through part of the beginning of this movie because it was so dull. Nothing happens for nearly an hour. I mean nothing at all. No story or character development. The remaining half hour is mainly headcam footage of people running. This is a total disaster.

    Also, every character is unlikeable. This was so painful to sit through.

    If you love movies where literally nothing happens...

    ...then this is your lucky day! A bunch of college students acting like total immature pricks and fighting about nothing go to a "haunted" mansion where literally nothing is scary, supernatural or haunted, and...record it all! Yay! Really, if you enjoy movies where nothing happens for 95% of the time, then you will LOVE this one!

    Found footage horror movie makers need to learn to include horror throughout the movie, not just in the last 30-secone frantic nonsense. Seriously, this movie is SO boring that you would enjoy watching grass grow more. Do NOT waste any money on watching this. If it is free, still avoid it.

    Worst movie

    This was honestly the worst movie I have ever seen. The acting poor quality, the special effects were bad. I watched it hoping it was gonna be good and was very disappointed. The kills didn't make any sense, the plot line didn't make any sense.
