以年代感的實境節目來呈現,挺有趣的
90 minutes seemed like 10 minutes. So entertaining this was. Tight writing with the right amount of humour, horror, retro visual effects, lovely black and white to colour transition and ultimately the basic premise that turns into something refreshingly original. This is more about the presentation than the actual plot though plot reveals slowly and in the final 30 minutes it really opens up and made me wonder whether I will have to rewatch first hour because this film encourages multiple viewings. Seems to be a straightforward movie initially but gets into a different zone completely towards the end. And ending is totally my cup of tea or in my book I call it #MyShit. Loved it.

What would otherwise be a fun and chill horror movie is ruined by the unnecessary use of AI. Every time those cards come on I am reminded of an extremely lazy choice made from a production team that seemed to put a lot of effort in every other aspect. Every other aspect seems authentic and very enjoyable. Why did they do this. I can only assume it came down to time restraints or perhaps miscommunication. But I personally know that AI can create better “art” than is present in this movie. It would be much better if it was completely cut from the movie, or changed in post now that it’s been released. As to the other aspects of the movie. I find it a very fun campy romp perfect for a Halloween night. The ending is definitely the highlight of the movie. David damalchian gives a great performance and the scene with the worms has fantastic practical effects. Overall this is a pretty fun movie that is held back by something that was ultimately very avoidable.
This movie is a clever idea that could have benefited from less transitions between 4:3 and 1:85:1 aspect ratios. And, I’m sorry but did the backstage footage change from B&W to color with no explanation? The most jarring transition was when we shifted from found footage to a surreal fictional dreamscape without skipping a beat (maybe there was an aspect ratio change - I can’t recall). But no worries - I’n sure A.I. can fix these blemishes for the blu-ray (ba dum ching). And what was with the Bohemian Grove stuff? Did that twerp Ben Shapiro produce this?
