The Taking of Deborah Logan
Directed by Adam Robitel
After months of searching, Mia Medina has found the perfect subject for her PhD thesis film on Alzheimer’s Disease. For the next several months, cameras will record the everyday life of mother Deborah Logan and her daughter Sarah. But as the days progress, they observe behaviors and occurrences that show the progression to be far more advanced than anyone was prepared for. What becomes apparent is that there’s something besides Alzheimer’s that has taken control of Deborah’s life. It’s an evil that is far worse than the debilitating disease with which she was first diagnosed.
A film crew documents a woman's struggle with Alzheimer's, only to discover something else at play.
Cast: Jill Larson, Anne Ramsay, Michelle Ang, Brett Gentile

This movie is a classic for me. It’s one I’ll always show anyone who’s wanting a good scare. The build up is amazing and truly haunting. This movie is the reason I now fear dementia because of how isolated and terrifying it must be to have lost so much of yourself and to be in autopilot. Not to mention the monster reveal at the end will always be in my top 5
Great and I’m really picky. Great possession movie. The beginning is boring. You could skip the frat 30
it was good leading up to the end. Im not the biggest found footage fan for the exact reason I have issue with this. The entire last act is almost unwatchable because of extremely shaky camera and frequent cuts. I know its supposed to add energy to the scenes and make it more frightening but instead it just makes it really hard to track what is going on
Great film! They did the found footage/documentary trope well. It had great pacing with good suspense and fun jump scares. Solid four skulls.
jumpscares on repeat, nothing scary here
