    • Crazy credits
      There is a statement in the closing credits: "No person associated with this motion picture will be running for president one day." This homages Ashley's joke to Dave.

    Entertaining found footage thriller

    The plot synopsis describes just about how this film was. It is a simple concept but it's the execution which makes it worthwhile and entertaining. The acting is strong and convincing. Has a very authentic and realistic "adult film" type acting which was needed for the film. The buildup for the film is good and the climax once the fan comes back for revenge and starts taking each cast member out one by one is thrilling. Although it was predictable, the kills and situation were made quite realistic looking. They didn't go overboard with blood and gore and kept it the way it should have.

    The end was expected as we knew this fan was going to get tricked by the adult star ultimately leading to his finale. The found footage gimmick gave the film a necessary feel. Very solid entertaining film but definitely not for the casual audience. It's NC-17 rating is appropriate.
