Moronic camera work.


Yet another movie attempting to make footage look like amateur footage, by shaking the camera and zooming in too much.

It does not look real. It's too exaggerated, looks forced and does not look like amateur footage. All that is achieved, is that it's annoying to look at.

Why are you here at all, if that's your attitude?

Grow up.

I saw it, and there is plenty of ridiculously overdone "amateur" footage.

Pretty sure your wrong and either exagerating, or simply didn't watch it. There is about 20 minutes max of "shaky cam" footage, it is a good movie that is sort of disturbing. Out of all the ones I have seen(maybe 20 or so, I have only liked 5 and this is one of them now because of the lack of movement). The only negative thing was that horrible actress reporter, they should have done without her commentary throughout the movie.

There's barely any "shaky cam" and even if there is, the shakiness is reduced to a minimum. They also use static cams.

I'm not a fan of the found footage genre. I only watched this flick to see Kether Donahue's butt.
