Untitled Horror Movie

source: Untitled Horror Movie

First of all, I am gen z and I born in 1997. But I actually liked this movie! I means the whole thing through meta thing. I feel like Im part of the whole video chat. Something horror happening while making movie within movie.....WICKED clever! This is another confirmation that we don't need Hollywood to create a film. Hollywood is little bit outdated now. Welcome to 2021.

I've definitely seen worse. This was actually a little fun. But also I love everyone in it.

Is wierd that this movie works but it does. This movie is surprisingly good considering it was shot in the middle of quarantine. With good actors and a good premise.

I can't believe this is getting so many bad reviews. Some of which are exaggerated. One of them says there is nauseating camera motion of the found footage...and yet in 90% of the shots of this movie the camera is completely still, so I'm not sure where this hate is coming from. Though I have noticed that films that are shot and done differently than most often get bad reviews for one reason or another, simply because people do not like things that are different. But in my professional opinion as a videographer I consider this film to be quite an artistic gem. I certainly appreciate it more than most because I have some experience with film making, so I can see the value of the creativity and innovation that went into making this film. And I think it is sad that so many other people cannot. Artistically speaking I see nothing wrong with this film. In fact it has a lot more artistic integrity than most big productions. And again, a lot of people do not like budget films that are all about the art and not about the flashy big production value. So if you are one of those people who only likes those kinds of movies then don't watch indie films like this. But if you actually appreciate the art of film making then you should give this a watch. This movie is unique and innovative in a couple of ways. First of all it is a movie about making a movie. Kind of like a documentary or mocumentary. However it is not, it is actually more like a found footage film, though it is not that either. It is a movie made up of both footage that is being made for the movie, but even more than that of the actors on camera talking to each other and doing things between filming. To portray this the film makers give the appearance of all the footage being recorded on phone cameras and web cams that the actors are recording themselves. However this it is only the appearance of that, as the film is of course shot on real cameras. And of course while making a horror movie, they get caught in one themselves when they unleash a supernatural force that begins attacking them. This film is not primarily scary though, it is primarily a comedy. So it not only combines the mockumentary/found footage, but horror and comedy, which is always a real treat. Like most horror comedies this film is more funny than scary of course, so watch it if you want more of a comedy than a horror movie, if you are looking to be scared you probably won't be, but you certainly will laugh. I got quite a few laughs out of this film, which is very clever. The writing and the acting are all very well done. I found myself remarking on how good they were a few times during the film. The dialogue is all so good, and the actors are as well. I had a lot of fun watching this film, it was so great to see something so different and creative. I give it a perfect ten.

What a pleasant surprise, but the movie has fundamental issues. There was no background given whatsoever to the spell. There could have been 20-30 minutes allotted towards the spell's origins in Hollywood (perhaps a death of some other actor?), some other cities in the USA, or the entire world. There was so much room to use the spell for actual comedy instead of mashing comedy and tragedy and making tragedy look like comedy. With that being said, a huge lack of empathy for the unexpected death of Chrissy ruined it for me. I get that this is a horror comedy, but it's also a horror dramedy at the same time. Some of the actors knew Chrissy throughout their entire career. How do they go from showing so much emotion and fear when she was walking around her apartment to "she died due to an accident, let's go meet Bobbie?" - this was NOT funny.

Meta: they say it multiple times in the movie. The low score must be from tightly puckered horror fans angry that it got tagged as a "horror" and not a "comedy-horror." It is not a horror.... it is a comedy with a few horror elements (most of which are, appropriately not scary at all). I especially loved the irony of the clearly intentional dialogue juxtaposed against the characters' complete obliviousness. Very self aware, great horror "stereotype" characters, fun over the top winks at found footage films ("Can you stop shaking the camera, please? You're making me nauseous!"), and the "clever and original" writing is more cliche than the initial drivel the actors didn't want to film in the first place. Kudos to this Covid film! I belly laughed multiple times.... a very fun accidental find on a Wednesday afternoon :)

I like how they reveal some of the Holywood "secrets", which might be publicly known, but most of us never really thought about them deeply. The casual talking style was nice, as was the sudden mention of botox(which for some reason cracked me up). It all felt more natural than most conversations in movies, and I really appreciate it. They obviously were overreacting at times, but it seemed like they could contain it within reasonable limits. The real quality of the movie isn't the best, the plot is shaky and almost missing, but the acting is more than good. It was spooky, and I enjoyed it thoroughly. The little jabs at the whole politicizing of the movie industry were on point, mostly. I can see why a lot of people were upset after watching it. Well, I am not, and it wasn't bad at all.

So called horror movie I have ever seen!! Were those real actors? Yuk!

I only watched it because of Claire, but I really liked it, I was expecting a little more for the ending, but overall it's rlly good! I don't know why it has so much bad reviews... I really enjoyed it.
