The movie does not have a lot of action, and it only has a bit of blood and gore, but it has its own charm. This movie will appeal to the type of audience who likes to try new spins of old concepts.
Instead, I'll tell you what kind of movie it is, in my own amateurish opinion. What IS this movie? I'm not going to go into the storyline detailing, since a lot of reviews are already doing that. BUT not every horror/thriller fan will like this film, so if your cup of tea is more of a shock and awe or an adrenaline pumping, blood gushing, gore spewing kind you maaaaay want to skip this one. I'm not a huge fan of "found footage" films, but I liked this one. If you are tired of dumb monster movies and boring killer in the woods crap, this is the film for you. I don't know what people that rated it 1 smoked, but it was probably infested by parasites :-) It may also have been the setting for me: a slow night with no one around, perfect for watching horror.
Bottom line: I will keep this film in my permanent collection. The film is trying to be realistic and it manages to do that, while the slow pace that some accused works perfectly for the film's ultimate and terrifying outcome. And what happened is a biological outbreak. The premise is that some government secreted video footage has leaked to someone who montaged them in order to show "what really happened". The truth is that this is not really a found footage film, but a documentary type of horror. After watching it, I must say I am glad I did and that people responsible for the low IMDb rating didn't really watch the movie. At first, when I saw that it was one of those films made with footage from web cams and handhelds, I cursed the found footage genre and was ready to be disappointed.
