Went to see this film today, sadly, although i think its probably a good film i only lasted about 20 minutes before feeling very sick!! A warning to anyone else who suffers from motion sickness!!! The jumpy camera is unbearable if you have this problem and even my daughter who doesn't usually suffer from this felt sick as well. Its a shame cos i wanted to see what happened, anyone else not affected, please let me know!! Sick Laugh

^^ I wouldn't worry, you didn't miss much. I thought it was a great idea, but after the first half hour it really had nowhere else to go.

The shaky camera was just a bit too much for the big screen.


Pass me the remote love.....

I can't understand why directors use this method of filming. If I want to watch a jerky film that makes me ill I can give a camcorder to my daughter and watch the result. I thought this may be better on a tv screen, it isn't. The smaller screen doesn't make you feel as ill, but it does let you concentrate on the story which is awful.

A similar style of camera work but not as extreme is Diary of the Dead, I can't believe this gets 6.9 on IMDB, I feel that I have been robbed of 95mins of my life.

Hey, what are you all on about. I have watched the film twice now and felt fine.
The main point though is that the film is good!! I would give it 7-8 out of 10 at least!!
You must have been watching something else lol.

Loved it, it was everything Blair Witch tried to be but failed miserably.

Godzilla meets Friends, incredible special effects, simply awesome.

Also it's nice and short, only 70 minutes long. They keep it tight and concise.
