It's not bad. It's certainly not good. It's a slightly below average found footage film, strictly for us found footage fans. No real emotional connections developed. Very thin plot. I'd only recommend it if you (like me) have run out of FF horror movies. If found footage/shaky cam horror isn't for you, please just avoid the movie and spare us that stereotypical whining review. You won't like it. Promise. Dig found footage? Meh, you could do worse.
*Side note: message me any under the radar FF movies worth seeing. I'm running low. If you need suggestions, hit me up*

That rattling you hear is Lee's giant earring hitting the camera. Ugh!!
If you can get through this found footage film w a constant clickity crackle sound and heavy breathing you would probably rate this a two. Maybe not. Just awful. Bad actors have to say everything they're thinking and doing so us morons understand the story. Bad over-acting, bad directing, repeated story w no budget and you get a really boring movie. Move on folks. Nothing to see here...
Remember when movies used to have at least a morsel of originality? No? It's been a while hasn't it.
So stop me if you've heard this one. We have a group of young people making a documentary about a scary place, they go to the scary place, scary things happen, they keep recording despite scary things happening and the credits roll.
That's basically what we have here as we see them making a documentary about a factory built on the site of satanic worship and yeah that pretty much covers it. Throw in a bit of drama within the group, a love triangle, shaky cam and the usual found footage tropes and you have yourself another carbon copy movie.
So what sets it apart from the rest? Literally nothing. The cover to me made promises it didn't deliver, we've seen this all before and done considerably better.
If you like this copy and paste found footage films you may enjoy it, otherwise avoid.
The Good:
Looks better than most found footage
The Bad:
Unlikable characters
Some real illogical stupidity
Ultimate goes nowhere
