Irritating

I love finding a low rated horror and squirreling out superior quality through the reviews.

This time me faily. Total irritation The idea is clever, but it depends on telling the story through the camera, and the camera work is awful, the camera-man character irritating.

So many scenes where the angle is static and we're supposed to use our imagination - but it's simply boring. Boredom. Irritation. Boredom through irritation. Irritoredom.

I did like the rewind technique for the final reveal, but I suspect that was the whole point and what went before was just an excuse to get there. Not good enough.

In the end it's an editor's production, with no idea how to deliver character.

Uggh.
