A real shame, I loved the book so much so was really looking forward to this but it just didn't live up to my expectations. The acting isnt bad but not very convincing either. I think it's mainly the directing that couldve been done better.

Not for me
27 February 2022
This film is one a bit like paranormal activity, shot as if it is actually filmed if that makes sense. Very shaky and not just pleasant to watch for me.
I also found the acting from the reporter very poor.
Turned it off after 15 minutes.

Makes you think

I kind of get the bad reviews but I don't. I guess it depends on what you're expecting before you watch it.
It's a dark dramedy and although I would't class it as a horror, it does have that eerie feeling to it.
I thought this was a very intense, interesting movie that makes you think. I'd recommend it but only to certain people.

Beautiful

Wow. The first half I thought it was a bit average and I didn't really see it going anywhere.
The second half though, was absolutely fantastic. The acting throughout the whole film is great, but what really impressed me was how everything was lead by music and emotion and the ending was just perfect. Really impressed.

This is a very slow film, so I guess it depends on whether you like that or not.
It is incredibly well acted but for me it wasn't quite worth it. It gives a lot of insight into the life of the shooter but for me it was missing suspense.
Not saying this was a bad film at all, just not my cup of tea.

I loved it and I didn't

This film is so strange. I thought the concept was great, the thought that went into the details as well.
It's very creative and original which I appreciated.
I personally didn't like the artsy camera work, everything was just a bit too close up for me and some scenes were out of focus which made it feel cheaply made.
What I didn't like either is how the characters had to 'explain' things during the film which I found unnecessary and made it much less submersive.
Some really funny things in there but overall makes you feel unsettling.
I liked it but I didn't but I didn't dislike it either... you know?
I'd recommend watching it though. I think.

Creepy and confusing
2 July 2021
This is not your typical horror movie. At the end I wasn't sure whether I loved it or hated it.
It's so creepy and made me feel uncomfortable throughout the entire thing.
Very confusing end but if you think long and hard about it, the concept is so creative.

Poor

This documentary looked promising, and although I am not religious myself I like to keep an open mind about these things. So let's put my opinion about religion aside.
I liked that he asked people's opinions and it wasn't just shut down by everyone, it seems everyone had a really open mind and was willing to really think about all the possible causes.
That being said, everything else was a flop. The director interrupts everyone all the time, what is the point in asking someone a question if you're not going to let them answer it?!
Also, they're saying the possessed woman would have an impossible strength but she is easily held down by 2 men (and one of them isnt even trying).
I didn't even finish it..

What could've been...
9 September 2020
For the whole entire thing I was very confused and waiting for this shocking revelation of what was actually going on. It never came. I wish I had read the book or just the IMDB reviews beforehand, I think I would've enjoyed it much more. If only they'd cut out the long car scenes with irrelevant conversations and the unnecessary dance scenes it might've been interesting enough but with them it's 2+ hours of your life wasted on being confused.
