So much average

Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

The movie starts out with your standard slow buildup of characters conversing to each other, filming for no reason, creepy things being found or heard. All the standard clichés. Why I felt the reason to review this film was because this movie really went above and beyond with the shaky camera, screaming into the mic, and pointless static and video glitching. I couldn't even tell what was happening at the end of the film, it looked like you gave a 5 year old a phone camera and had them run through a haunted house, then added all sorts of shitty interference filters in after effect. This is too bad, as it seemed there were some interesting creatures and a stranger plot to be explored.... at least I think there was, it was really hard to see what I was looking at.

I've been reading the reviews and I really think the majority of people who wrote reviews either weren't paying attention or otherwise are partially brain dead. The story is NOT confusing at all, it's actually pretty straightforward. There are NO ZOMBIES. THIS IS NOT A ZOMBIE MOVIE. One reviewer wrote that the monsters are monsters because "they were exposed to a virus or some DNA" and besides the fact that that is not how biology works, again, no one is "exposed" to anything. The main premise of the film is that 4 young adults go camping, and things go horribly wrong. The guy who wrote the movie, Ryan McCoy, plays an aspiring documentary filmmaker (also named Ryan-all 4 major actors in the movie were called by their real names) and he is attempting to do a documentary about his friend, Brett. Before going further I want to point out that there are almost no boobs in this movie (one reviewer said something about "40 minutes of boobs later" which just causes me to think that he didn't even watch the thing before reviewing it) but at the beginning, while Ashley is packing, Ryan films her cleavage and she flashes him her nipples. For a split second. That's all the boobs in the movie. So Brett, Ryan, Ryan's girlfriend Abby, and her friend Ashley borrow a friend's RV, and they drive up to a pretty secluded area up in some mountains. They hear some weird noises, see a weird looking creature in the woods, and everyone wants to leave but Ryan. He has the keys to the RV, so they stay. The creatures start stalking them, they ruin the RV, and so they're stuck in the woods.We find out the creatures are coming from a testing facility presumably controlled by the government. There are no zombies, but when they run through you realize that the creatures were probably once human, or at least part human. There is one man in the facility in a hospital gown who acts crazy, and he makes the same sounds they heard in the woods. There are other creatures too. From what I understood, it is a bioengineering facility, and they'r making new creatures, some with human DNA (which is probably why some of the creatures were smart enough to do what they did the whole beginning of the film) but there are creatures other than the ones that were out in the woods as well, like a giant beetle-y bug that runs down a hallway. Some of the creatures that had seemed smart originally (the ones from the woods) do seem much less intelligent, but hey, some people are pretty stupid too, so maybe those creatures were created from the less intelligent people. I don't know. They don't explain everything, but that makes it better in my opinion. I watch a LOT of horror movies, and I'm pretty picky I think. You don't see many movies like this. I don't even like zombie movies, they're overdone and they've become so mainstream that they're not even really scary anymore. So I repeat- this is NOT A ZOMBIE MOVIE. It's better. It's much more original. For a found footage film, they show a lot, it's not all just screams and crying and the audience guessing. It looks like it was made with a very low budget, but it's much better than SO many bigger budget horror movies I've seen. It's creepy, it's not torture porn, it's not a remake, it's not a haunted house movie, and there are no zombies. Just for that it stands out to me. But it's definitely worth watching. It's a movie that makes you think a little, Anyone who is confused by this movie just either wasn't paying attention, or has a problem when it comes to using their imagination at all. If you're looking for a movie with a premise you haven't seen much of recently, give this a chance. It's def worth checking out.

Everything started normal. Friends go to somewhere to camping and then whole story has changed. I think they tried to mix Doom, Resident Evil and classic hand cam movies. But it was just a giant disappointment. Don't waste your time. Movie is too dark. Screaming and crying girls all the time and terrible hand camera angles. Zombies look more like patience from asylum. Creatures; some of looks like bear or giant wolf. But with this camera its impossible to understand. And people who came for help, who are they. They came suddenly and worked to try to save girls. Well at least its not satisfying movie for me. No horror. No thriller. And lots of predictable scenes.

I've read a lot of negative comments & seen this movie rated quite poorly, I have to totally disagree. Most importantly, you MUST be a fan of found footage movies to enjoy this film, if you're not - forget it & go watch something else! Yes, at first it comes across as a little derivative of Blair witch, but there is far more to this movie than that. It starts quite slowly, building up that unsettling & creepy feeling that something isn't quite right with the camping trip. The character behind the camera comes across as manipulative and uncaring, a borderline sociopath. As his world starts to unravel, so does his mind and he becomes a real danger to his companions. Part way through, all hell breaks loose, the action ramps up and the campers are plunged into a living hell. The Actors all play their parts well & are believable. The plot is well thought out with unexpected twists and some great shocks & scares. Most importantly for me, this movie does NOT treat you like an idiot, you are left to work out a lot of what is going on yourself. Plenty of times you'll be asking yourself "WTF just happened?" and that's a GOOD thing! I hate it when directors feel they have to explain every little thing to you, like you're stupid! In short, it's Blair Witch meets Chernobyl Diaries, with plenty of genre originality in there too. If you liked either of those movies, you'll like this - I have no hesitation giving it 7 stars.
