I bought the DVD for this movie months ago. I was waiting to watch it with S, but something or the other kept getting in the way. Then, day before yesterday, he just happened to drop in and we decided to see the movie.
Well, I heard the movie was the scariest ever and all that. So I was expecting to be really scared outta my wits, but nothing like that happened.
The movie is supposedly a true story. These 3 students went into this forest to make a documentary and never returned. A year later their footage was found and this is it. There are two cameras, one which they use to shoot the documentary and the other which they use to shoot their entire trip. It is quite spooky at times. Especially coz one of the cameras is in B/W.It gives an eerie touch to the entire film.
The only thing that really scares you is knowing that all that they show actually happened. There isnt any gore. Just strange occurrences. This one time, there are there voodoo structures made from sticks just hanging from the trees everywhere. Very spooky. And then when they find piles of rocks outside their tent. Weird stuff happens. But thats it. It isnt as scary as I had thought it wud be, which is why maybe I dint enjoy it too much.
Its a hugely talked about movie, so see it if you are inclined to. Very o-k-a-y.
