Loved this

Found it very immersive and well worth the watch. The acting was very authentic and much more entertaining that the review might suggest. Found footage is old news but this was done well. My expectations were low but the movie delivered. Once again shows that reviews and ratings are not the be all and end all...watch the movies and make up your own mind.

I saw the trailer before the movie came out and I was pretty excited for it. Watched it with some expectations but didn't expect much from it. Turned out to be complete disaster. The storyline is just boring and doesn't make any sense. It just looks like the movie is made out of random clips not even connected to each other. Characters don't have a personality and we can't really bond with them. They do stupid decision and die for no reason. Cheap jumpscares and actors that can't really express emotions. They talked too many useless things that didn't bring anything to the "story" Overall the movie wanted to be a cheap copy of movie "Hell House LLC Origins: The Carmichael Manor" Don't recommend watching it 😐

I saw this title advertised and came here to check it out. It had like a 6 yesterday. So I got it and watched it. I don't understand where in the world they got the 6 from. Now it's a 4.9. And it had over 1k yesterday. Anyway, if it looks too good to be true it probably is... So yeah. This has got to be one of the seemingly lowest budget films I've seen in a while. They like rented a mediocre, cheap villa in the English countryside, probably on Airbnb. And they rented 3 cars. And probably advertised on Craigslist for 2 main and 4 supporting actors... or wherever it is you get actors 'off the street' these days. I think the whole thing was shot like over a weekend. Less than a week, tops. They could have believably shot the whole thing in one day, like one of Willis' recent movies. They went for a documentary style, of sorts, and probably really did use phones for the majority of the footage. I mean the premise was sort of interesting, and probably could have gone somewhere... but the whole thing was just like a high school movie final project that got a b-. That's the overall vibe I got from it. The main characters were annoying as hell. So they are famous social media performers/influencers who steal? Do you know how easy it would be for the police to get them? I'm not going to even... yeah. The monster in the movie, I've seen middle-schoolers' Halloween costumes that put more effort into the concept and execution than this. And he kept repeating the same chant over and over again. Except it wasn't even chant-y sounding, or creepy in any way. It was like a guy repeating my take out order over the phone. I know what they were going for, but in this case, it was not scary or effective at all. It just became extremely annoying and ridiculous after the first encounter. Ok, enough, like I said, I only watched this because I saw it had a 6 and read some of the obviously fake reviews. So I was waiting for it to get good, and by the time I lost all hope and realized it was fake I was more than halfway through so I just finished it. Ugh.

Despite its short runtime, "Dagr" manages to bore the viewers within a short timespan. As a matter of fact, you have to sit through more than half the film before some attempts at horror tropes appear. This is just one of the more tangible evidences of Matthew Butler-Hart's struggles with the writing and direction of "Dagr". Whatever his point with this film was (I'm sure he had one) is not displayed even at the slightest. Some sort of social commentary? Who knows? When the folk horror themes is unraveled at the end, no answers are given anyways due to its convolution. And yes, we've seen found the footage within a found footage horror movie trick before.

I saw the rate 4.9 and thought of watching it till the end thinking of maybe maybe maybe something will change! Two famous girls recording went to a house to steal things, saw blood And cameras of a shooting in the house 1 female survived from a demon in the house, static demon that comes and can only be visible in screens or reflections. Now the demon is: Demon from 1920's ? Wearing cape ? With a sword ? Static ? And what he was saying ?? " why D D, why D D, why DD " ? Like what the hell is this! And ok what is why D D ? Why not something else ?!! Stupid story and idea !! I saw low budget movies but this is the worst movie ever ! Don't waste your time! Listen to me!

When two internet pranksters arrive to disrupt a photo-shoot, something evil decides to call it a wrap. Just about the lowest rating I've given a movie. A few references to film school and the profession suggest the makers are well aware of their craft, and there does seem to be an enormous number of cameras in play, but nothing is done with care or intelligence. As for the writing, it takes 30 minutes to dole out information that could have been injected through high-tempo montage. But then a literally in-your-face tribute to Blair Witch - followed by the fatigue of realizing that nobody in this production understood anything about that found-footage classic and its unifying concept. Instead, it delivers frights at the same level as one of those daft ghost-hunter TV shows - but without the shadows. When presented with a spectacularly bad argument, scientists have a cutting put down: "not even wrong". This is the film version of that argument. An extra point for the one glimmer of charm, the actor playing Thea, whose surname I'd like to pronounce nice and proper.

Wow...this is one of the worst movies I've seen this year so far. They jabber on and make YouTube content for F O R T Y straight minutes. I'm not sure why I continued to watch past thirty minutes but I did. I truly regret not turning it off then. At 41 minutes the movies tries and fails to get interesting. At 45 minutes in...we turned it off. It was THAT bad. It's so bad that I felt obligated to write a review to save anyone else contemplating watching this. Do not waste your time on this folks. I repeat. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME ON THIS MOVIE. And if you do, don't pretend you weren't warned.

I fell for the hype. I rented Dagr on YouTube and I am very disappointed. This is such a bog standard found footage film it feels like I've already seen it! How any filmmakers can produce something this generic is beyond me. And well, if you're going to copy something copy something good at least. Maybe even try putting a new spin on it. This is just lazy film making. I get it's ultra low budget but don't then try getting us to believe it's on a Blair Witch level of creativity. It's not. Far from it. The acting is terrible. Yep I get the YouTubers are probably supposed to be annoying but the whole thing just feels like a joke. There's no actual tension. Not even a decent jump scare to give us something to feel. There's so many better movies about strange cults. Watch one of them instead. Even though it's not amazing itself if you want to watch a modern take on British cults this year then try Lord of Misrule. Again it's not amazing but it's far better than this.

Based on some really positive reviews, I watched this movie with the hope of finding a nice little horror gem. I was sadly disappointed. As is typical of most (mediocre) horror, the film spends about 30 minutes in the preamble, but does very little to establish the setting or characters beyond some pretty standard tropes. Given the overall short runtime, I was floored that they spent nearly half the movie's screen time on inane establishing dialogue and nothing-burger scenes. Not even really much to foreshadow or set a creepy tone--just minute after minute of yawn-inducing banter. Even the "scary" bits were completely tired, run-of-the-mill fodder like eerie whispers and doors closing. Nothing you haven't seen in dozens of other horror films. And that's pretty much the entire movie: rehashed, regurgitated horror tropes with very little novelty or innovation. Don't believe the hype. This movie is middling dreck at best, and not worth your money if you're at all picky about your horror films.
