I forgot I watched this already a few years ago, which is really all there is to say. Pretty cool what they were able to do with basically no budget, but I think it was ahead of its time - some of the video footage really is just too grainy. Normally I'd say that adds something in a horror film, but not here. I will say the ending was pretty cool. Overall though, pretty forgettable.

3. Triangle (2009)
Very, very inventive movie. It's hard to talk about it without spoiling things but this kind of movie is exactly up my alley. Basically, group of friends goes sailing and gets caught in a storm, then finds a ghost ship passing by and hop on board. It's hard to explain but this one feels more scifi than supernatural, but I guess that's up to interpretation. The movie escalates sharply with each act, and has an odd, dream-like atmosphere that's hard to describe. I always love it when I see a movie with a cool premise that actually does more with it than I thought it would.

4. The Taking of Deborah Logan
Pretty good spin on a possession movie. Great actors. Some incredibly tense moments. After a while I forgot it was found footage, which may be the highest recommendation I can give to some people. Felt very grounded and natural with no filler or fake-out bullshit.
