If one word could be used to sum up everything that happens on screen in this snoozefest, it would have to be tortuous. In fact, if the killer had tortured his victims half as much as the filmmaker tortured the audience, we'd be in for a treat. Unfortunately, that's not the case.
I couldn't tell throughout most of the movie if this was meant to be a horror comedy, and I really don't think it was. I did laugh several times throughout, but I think that was resulting more from bad filmmaking than from a plot that was supposed to be funny. The film opens with a chase through the woods, where someone holding a camera hunts down a man and stabs him to death. It's very found footage, and it's incredibly promising for what we're going to be watching over the next hour plus. If it had been contained to a found footage style, it might've been a decent film, but it was that weird mixture between found footage, a guy holding a camera, and completely third-person that so many filmmakers are trying to do (and usually failing at) now.
