The Quarry: 2011 (2011) User Reviews

Short film idea, feature film runtime

[hcampbell-70473 · 4/10 · 17 July 2018]

I have a soft spot for found footage horror, if I didn't this would be a 2. An hour of nothingness leads to 20 minutes of pointlessness. There's really not much left to say.

Why?

Why? "Why what?" You might ask. Why any of this? Four friends decide to hang out at a quarry for fall beak. Ok, I get that. They decide to record the trip for memories. Ok, I get that also. Beyond that, the word I kept saying over and over was "Why?"

So friends are out in the wilderness drinking and goofing off. Have you had a friend that has gone on vacation, posted the video on YouTube, and sent you a link. Yeah, that is exactly what this film does for the first hour. There absolutely NOTHING going on of interest. You get a glimpse of the guy that eventually comes along to make things interesting later, that's it. Only one of them says yeah lets leave. Of course they dont.

So for the last 15 minutes of the movie, the Quarry Guy comes back. This time, the crew is a bit more apprehensive. What happens? Quarry Guy opens fire. The girl in the group is screaming her head off, and the guy that's filming hides in some nearby bushes. Quarry Guy says nothing as he kills them one by one and throws them into a lake, or river, or whatever body of water he's dumping them in. Finally after Quarry Guy is asked "What do you want!?" From one of his victims, he gives his answer."Baked potatoes". Yeah, thats it. Hes putting them in potato sacks, so he says baked potatoes. Looking for some insight on that? Yeah, me too.

Thankfully this was free with Amazon Prime, yet I still feel cheated out the time it took to watch this travesty. I adore found footage movies, even when they're a tad cheesy. This one shouldn't be watched. Want to see a so bad its good found footage flick with about half the runtime? Watch Gifts From Strangers.

Another found footage camping movie.....

Well I will say I liked the ending , but really the movie was just cliche.

Because theres no 0 stars, it gets 1.

I made a profile just to say how much i hated this movie. Dont watch it thinking itll be funny bad, its just infuriating. I could barely understand/hear them most of the time over the incessant footstep noise or audio. The 2 brothers and girl were making me wish the death would hurry up. Its just a massive awful cringe. DO NOT WASTE YOUR PRECIOUS TIME!

Welllll...at least the girl was hot??

Wow, where to start? Let me 1st say that I am a huge fan of found footage movies and somehow I discovered this was in my watchlist on Amazon Prime so I said what the hell. But this movie was horrible from beginning to end. I guess i can describe the 1st 40 minutes as watching 4 of the most boring people hang out together and talk in monotone voices. It felt like one of those nights in my late teens or early 20s where somehow I wound up hanging out with a new group and they are just awful. I mean they drank corona LIGHT for god's sake. You literally just watch them drive and shop and talk for 40 minutes. The audio and video are brutal!! I mean even with like a $5,000 budget you should get a decent camera. Once it gets to be night time at the 40 min mark you can only see about 8 feet in front of the camera and the rest of the screen is just black with a purple hue to it, night vision anyone???!!! Their conversations are mostly drowned out by the sound of them walking down this path in which the girl suddenly starts shreaking and they all freak out bc apparently they saw a person, i saw a purple hue. So then literally from the 44 min mark to the 49 min mark 2 of the guys just stand there shining their itty bitty teeny weeny flashlights back and forth trying to find the person while the girl and her bf head back. After 5 min you finally catch a glimpse of the guy so they head back to the camp site. After some more unmemorable drek, with about 15 min left in the movie some guy shows up with some sort of dolly and hes got a reao flashlight and they cant see him bc he is purposely blinding then with it. Some gun shots are fired and the camera guy gets about 50 feet away and just records and watches this guy tying up his friends and putting potato sacks over their heads and does NOTHING but cry like the biggest sissy ever. Btw you can barely see what's going on because like I said the camera is horrible. So he hauls one of them away on his Dolly and he runs over to check on the remaining two and a pitchfork or something comes flying into the picture but doesn't hit him but for some reason he falls over pretty much unconscious and he gets tied off too and also put in a potato sack and they all just wind up getting thrown in the quarry....the end..... I swear to god this movie is AWFUL and i plead with you, do not waste an hr and 20 minutes of your life. There is no plot, the characters are so boring, it takes so long to get started, and the audio and visual are beyond brutal. The only reason it got two stars instead of one is because of the way that he killed off the final guy oh, I did like that. Also, you got to see the blonde girl in a bikini for about a minute and she is pretty hot so you guys can thank her for the second star.
