Hangman (2015)

Excellent, a Must See

Awesome Movie

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

HANGMAN is a low budget found footage horror inspired by the PARANORMAL ACTIVITY series. The most impressive thing about it is that it masquerades, successfully, as an American film, even though according to the IMDb it was made in the UK. The story sees a vacationing family returning home, only to discover that a burglar has trashed the place. Somehow, they don't realise that he's set up covert cameras throughout the property, so that he can spy and stalk them constantly. This film's pretty much indifferent, lacking the kind of tension I'd expect from the premise despite the director's best efforts, and with boring performances from the cast members. There's the occasional shock scene which works well but overall this is both routine and lacklustre.

I'll have to admit,Hangman have a rather interesting and provoking premise. But,that's as far as what you can get from this movie. All you will get is a "thriller" movie that fails as a thriller,lacks in thrills,lacks of character,Plot-less and empty storyline,cringe worthy dialogue,and an Editing so bad,it feels like you're watching a high school student's film project. I know that this movie is a low- budget indie movie,but this movie is just pitiful.and the main plot of the story itself lacks in explanations,and it will leave you scratching your head on what's the point of the story,and what's going on in this movie.It has a sloppy visual editing,and a sound editing so bad,that in some unnecessary scenes,there's a sound that will blow your eardrums without any apparent reason. It also has a soundtrack that really didn't help,or maybe ruin a scene that's supposed to be tense.If you are looking for a full of tense,groundbreaking,jittery independent horror flick,then this movie is not for you.Period.

Well I am a Horror fan and so picking this for that reason but alas it was not such a horror as it seemed. Having said that i was on the edge of my seat a number of times as the suspense of the next act was upon me. A film that kept me and my partner entertained and with a cast of people i have not seen before except for Kate Ashfield who played a lead role in Shaun of the Dead. it played out well, mostly set in a Suburban House in America with a few outdoor scenes it really was a good thriller. It was no slasher film nor was there any brutal scenes barring a little towards the end but it did not need it. The fact that things like this do happen in real life kept the buzz going and kinda made me think a little on the way we secure our car and home in the future. how some reviews are totally destroying this i cannot see, it was not a massive big budget film full of high end CGI but a nice evening film which was entertaining, it didn't need lots of action, overall a great film.

Man terrorizes a family seen through a multi web-cam type setup. That's it. Remove acting, character building, drama, tension or any of the myriad of things that could make a movie watchable. Hangman simply picks up the Paranormal Activity snoozetorch, and manages to do absolutely nothing with it. There are home movies made by kids on youtube that look stellar in comparison to Hangman. Not even kidding here. Had to scrub through the last third of the "film". Possible the lowest quality film I've ever seen. The fake review of the film here on IMDb was the most entertaining moment I had watching Hangman. They're just too funny and always written the same way.
