The Gracefield Incident (2017)

Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.

Strong and Moving!

The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

This movie, though predictable, would have had some merit had it not been for the woeful script. The characters portrayed come across as mindless morons as a result. The question "What's going on?" repeated over and over does not a great script make. This movie has really gotten me over the whole "first person" view style of movie making so at least, thanks for that.

I've only watched 13 minutes of the film so far and it's pretty bad. The acting isn't the worst I've seen but it isn't far from it. Just the basic idea of the film fails. He removes the camera from his phone to insert into a fake eye. Right there the tech side of the movie fails. Those cameras are hard wired, not wireless. Even if he somehow rigged it to solid state storage it wouldn't hold enough data for more than a couple hours. Add the fact that he's powering it with a watch battery... And on top of all of that, he epoxies the whole thing together guaranteeing that there is no way for him to replace the battery. And, oh yeah, let's stick an epoxy covered object into his eye socket. Oh and of course no one is going to notice that his eye occasionally glows red right? There's even more tech fail with this idea that I haven't mentioned but I'm tired of writing about it. It would have been better for the writer to have used some sort of internet order for a special mini camera. Have the character open a box which shows some sort of packaging boasting a new state of the art miniaturized wireless camera. Dude, if you read this review, don't try to use existing tech which obviously would not work. Make up some new futuristic tech.

over exaggerated acting, over exaggerated voice acting. If you want to direct, don't act, cause you really suck at it. Jessica got caught looked at camera when the storm hit the living scene..so not professional. Overall, a high school project, way too ambitious too immature.

I watched this with little to no expectations and the early parts played out in a pretty predictable and cliché cabin in the woods kinda story, but it surprised me towards the end. It's nice. I don't think these reviews and ratings are fair. I've seen so many horrible found footage horror and sci-fi movies but this one's good.
