Real World IX: Crystal Lake

Rating: 4/10 (9 August 1999)

First of all, I give a lot of credit to the three main actors for their believability; most notably Heather Donahue as the goal-obsessed director of this doomend documentary.
But it wasn't scary. More important, for the film to work, you had to see the right footage. Heather, Mike, and Josh of course, just happened to have their cameras running at the right times for us to get a full sense of the picture. (Even edited down from complete footage, it still strikes me as odd.)
The ending, for me, failed to leave me with enough information to want to have questions about it. It simply left me with a feeling that this was Real World IX: Crystal Lake.
