Boy was this movie very very dissapointing. I couldn't believe just how bad it was. I am a movie fanatic, I love movies and I give any movie a chance, but this one was just plain bad!!!!!!!!

I should have looked a previous ratings. This movie was hard to watch because of camera angles and left you hanging both in what actually happened and ending. Don't bother.

Read More And don't watch it just because people say it's bad...I mean really, do something good with your life for the next two hours because I sure wish I could take that time back! There's absolutely no storyline, the camera makes you ill (at least Blair Witch had some kind of point) and just when you think the alternate endings MAY just give you a sense of closure, they end up having the same results....if you want to watch a movie about a monster taking over a big city, watch Godzilla-even the black and white ones have character!!!

Unfortunately it's just another Blair Witch Project. Same style of photography (as if shot with hand held personal video), and when the last star dies the camera shuts off and the movie ends. I don't really mind this style, it's just that these types of movies don't really tell the story as well as I am used to. Also, This type of move dosen't really end. I am left wishing that someone would come along and find the camera and then actually create an ending for the movie. Where did the monsters come from? How did the humans fight them off? Who won?
