Was it real???

Rating: 3/10 (12 January 2010)

Well, was it? No kidding. I just got back from Blockbuster after returning this flick and the guys behind the counter told me that people have been coming in and asking them if the film was real. I'm not joking here.
Wow. We truly have become a nation of morons. Maybe the first clue that it wasn't real was the title itself? I give up.
Anyway, the film was pedestrian obviously. But that's what you get for 15K. Kudos to Oren Peli for scoring such a hit nonetheless. Hope my fellow San Diegan pocketed some serious cash.
Not a big fan of these types of hand held Blair Witch sort of things. And the audio almost made me turn it off in the first few minutes. Micah in particular is really hard to understand.
With that said, I found the whole thing rather comical, particularly the predictable escalation of events. Then again, I suppose to truly be scared by a movie like this, well, maybe you're one of those people coming into your local Blockbuster asking the clerks if it was real. Good grief people.
