Fear the Frogs!

Great found footage movie that doesn't get bogged down in over- seriousness and has a sense of fun, while at the same time being really creepy. The characters are likable enough and the dialogue works, you can really tell that a lot of thought went into the filming and that the whole thing must have been a lot of fun.

As for the story itself, it evolves at a nice pace and plays with audience expectations a bit, especially towards the end. There is something creepy going on at least every few minutes but a lot of it is in the background so you also get to know the characters quite a lot as the film progresses.

Overall this is a smart and enjoyable horror with a decent amount of comedy and character work thrown in. I would recommend this to anyone who doesn't hate found footage movies and also say that for the most part the filming is actually important to the story in this case.

Another Awful Found Footage Horror Film

The American artist Becky Westlake (Brigid Brannagh) buys a derelict house in the countryside of the remote Moldova in the Eastern Europe to work with ceramics and to live with her boyfriend, the football player Goran Potsnik (Cristian Balint). Six months later, the American producer Kate Banks (Carrie Genzel) and her crew consisting of the cameraman Alex Torini (Kris Lemche),the audio operator Greg Abernathy (David Alpay) and newly hired assistant Sarah Ellroy (Mia Faith) arrive in Moldova. The local real estate agent Vladimir Filat (Dimitri Diatchenko) guides the group to Becky's house and they schedule the shooting. Meanwhile, Greg, Alex and Sarah do not respect the residents and they film everywhere, including a funeral, irritating the locals. On the night before the final shooting, they go to a bar to drink with the locals to make peace. However, Sarah is drunk and shouts "witch" to Kate and they need to flee to the hotel. On the next morning, they go to Becky's house and their van is completely destroyed and they are stranded in her house. Further, Vladimir was killed while seeking for help and during the night, they discover that they are under siege of the villagers. What will happen to them?

"They're Watching" is another awful horror film in this dreadful and lame found footage genre. The story, screenplay and edition are also terrible, with stereotyped characters and senseless plot point. Americans are arrogant, disrespectful and stupid; locals are underdeveloped and superstitious; and the lead character is a powerful witch without any explanation. My vote is three.

Title (Brazil): Not Available

Doina

You might want to skip the first few minutes of the film as it is a plot spoiler the reoccurs at about an hour and twenty minutes. The film is almost all found footage, as a crew films the show "Home Hunters Global" hosted by Kate Banks (Carrie Genzel). The crew is in a remote village of Moldova, a Romanian culture. They have returned to film the house of Becky Westlake (Brigid Brannagh) who bought the "worst house in Moldova." Upon their return they find the house if magnificently restored as they stay in a nearby village being ugly Americans with their cameras. There is a story about a local witch being burned at stake about 100 years ago. There appears to be something significant about frogs too.

The acting wasn't solid. There was an attempt at humor, more towards the beginning, but there was nothing to indicate the film was a spoof. Alex (Kris Lemche) provided us with a few funny lines while everyone else was his straight man. The film takes over 50 minutes to get going, which maybe why the editors opted to splice a plot spoiler in the beginning. Mia Faith provides us with minor eye candy.

Guide: F-word. Brief sex. No nudity.

Note to self: Never yell "witch" in a crowded bar of Romanians.
