Where to start with this sorry excuse for a movie. I love found footage and was excited for a new entry, but the "cinematography" in this movie was painful, both literally and figuratively. The sounds alone in this movie made me want to leave the theater. The constant screeching and high pitched noises not only served no purpose but literally hurt my ears. There's one scene where it's a full minute of it and NOTHING HAPPENS. Besides that, the first half of the movie is dreadfully boring, then when things appear to start picking up, chaos ensues...in the absolute worst possible way. I expected shaky camera angles, of course, but not 45 minutes of literal darkness or blur. The very end adds some shock mutilation for no reason at all, to shamefully goad a reaction perhaps, but I was mentally long done with it by then. Worst of all, the concept was actually interesting, but the execution was inexcusably bad. Don't waste your time, folks. I'm going to watch Hell House again lol.

I saw The Outwaters, starring Robbie Banfitch-The Trouble With Barry, Hastey Hastey Follow Your Heart; Michelle May-this is her second movie after Bikini Model Academy; Angela Basolis-her first movie and Scott Schamell-his first movie. This is one of those found footage movies-you can blame The Blair Witch Project-that is produced, written and directed by one of the stars, Robbie Banfitch. Robbie, Angela, Scott and Michelle are 4 people that go into the Mojave Desert to film a music video. Michelle is the singer/star of the video. They are never seen again-someone found the footage. The four camp in the desert-filming during the day-and during the night, they start hearing strange noises and see strange lights in the sky. During the day, they see 5 donkeys and a snake. During the night, an ax is seen in the hands of a human looking figure, off in the distance. One night, they are attacked-presumably by the human looking figure with the ax-and Robbie runs around all bloody-trying to find everyone else-ripping his own clothes off, so yes, he is naked. At one point, Robbie sees all 4 of them-yes, he sees himself, too-walking into the desert like they did at the beginning of the film and then proceeds to dismember parts of his own body. Did he kill them or is there some kind of time travel involved? I have no idea what happened to his friends-or himself-or even what caused all of this in the first place. I guess I'm just not smart enough and need someone to explain it to me-if you do see it, please get in touch with me. It has an NR rating but it has violence, language, bloody images and nudity-both male and female-and has a running time of 1 hour & 40 minutes. It's not one that I would buy on DVD or rent. If you want to see it, I'd wait until it comes to free tv.

It's not hard to see why this movie is so polarizing, but for me, this is one of those films that just stays with you in both a fantastic and unsettling way. It's one of the best uses of found footage I've ever seen, especially when you consider just how deep down the rabbit hole the film goes in terms of time loops, alternate dimensions, and, in my opinion, literal hell. While you don't necessarily see everything, what you see is exactly what the camera saw and there's no denying it. These people are literally trapped in a hell on earth, and to witness a man's descent into madness as he loses control over any sense of reality is harrowing. The final 10-15 minutes are absolutely brutal. Give me more of movies like this that have the balls to try something crazy.

First off I will say that I very much enjoy horror movies, be it action, found footage, si-fi, oldschool, etc. A good movie is a good movie, but this however is not. I have never written a review before for any movie but this one was so bad that I was compelled to. I paid for this movie and with about 30mins left I had to shut it off, it was just that bad. The plot was terrible, it made no sense whatsoever, there was nothing connecting me to a single character. The footage gave me a headache considering most of the movie is shot looking at a pinhole flashlight. I hate to say it but... garbage.
