In my never ending naivety of trying out not too shabby looking found footage movies I gave this one a try. As @kingkon_nl already pointed out this isn't one for the highlight reel. My problem isn't necessarily with the poor FX or the bad acting (Jamal is just as bonkers behind the camera) but the way this all plays out. Instead of devoting time to the process of finding the three supposed specimen the movie cares more about setting up the internal drama of the crew. Their "amazing" project then ends up being 1:1 interviews with each of them in a creepy location. It's no surprise to anyone that things obviously go wrong but even this is in sequence; ohhh nooo, the skinwalker is running after us ---- ohhh noooo, the vampire is attacking ----- oh noooo, there's a demon here. The time devoted to the "ohhhh noooo" part of the movie is actually quite lengthy but also what was the final turnoff for me... how the hell do you make those so boring? It's like 40 minutes of night vision and just running from things. The only semi interesting moment was with the demon [spoiler](the fog was a cool effect, not the CG however)[/spoiler] but even that resulted in nothing.

They were probably inspired by Grave Encounters. The basic idea behind it is in fact the same: A film crew, which is searching the supernatural but does not believe in it, will learn that monsters/demons/ghosts are real.

And in the end, [spoiler] this film turned out as just another Satanic cult movie... [/spoiler]

Basically, however, some other commenters are right. Nothing that has not seen before and always the same. Running away, fighting, screaming, running away, fighting, screaming, etc.

These are probably the weakest fucking monster of all, [spoiler] since all are more or less killed quickly [/spoiler] and that with... well... really cliched methods.

However, before it even "starts", we are fed with completely irrelevant background information for the first 30 minutes of the film, which is actually nothing that contributes to the importance of the story and the "interviews" are also uninteresting.

The end and the dissolution of what's going on, went as quickly as it came. You do not know even how and why, it just became clear that [spoiler] everything is a set-up from Devon and his satanic cult and that's it... [/spoiler]

I can unfortunately can not say anything about the acting, because I saw the German version and in many cases of found footage movies due to rapid camera movements the actor's power is transmitted via the voice.

Regarding the effects: I've seen worse.

My conclusion: I didn't had any satisfying feeling after watching this, because the end is just _bad_ and pointless. I also have forgotten this film again pretty soon.
