Subtle yet captivating-this was an unusual watch. They really tried to do something different here and is very effective for the most part. My issue is that they almost undermined themselves halfway through. Now I know they did it to make the last 20 minutes more impactful, but it wasn't entirely successful. This film is haunting and creepy but also oddly frustratingly arranged. Though that being said, it is still definitely worth watching.

Authentic, sincere and haunting, this brilliant Australian flick came out at the same time as Paranormal Activity, yet uses the found footage genre in a way that is infinitely more impactful. The horror is fantastic, uplifted by the personal and emotive explorations of grief and loss throughout. Absolute gem!
