Unknown Visitor (2019)
It is standard fair "found footage"
The major thing I had against this movie is the number of continuity missteps. The water bottle disappearing then reappearing, the sandwich disappearing and reappearing, the bottle of bleach disappearing and reappearing. I dont know if these are a sloppy job of production and editing crew or if there is something that the director was trying to add some more mystery, a la Kubrik in The Shining, but he is no Kubrik and he does not have the credits to his name to think that he is the skill of Kubrik. The other thing is the whole "found footage" genre. It is so overplayed. Any kid with a cheap camera can make some footage and call it a movie. "Found footage" was cool in the 2000's but in the 2020's it has over played.
On a better note, I think the two stars, Jason Scarborough and Brittany Dunk, were well acted and their performance should not be counted against the shoddy production job. Given a competent production crew it would have added a few more stars.
