Film about a dramatic
incident in a launderette.
Not really, it's
about a small group of people trying to make a documentary about a haunted
house and things go a bit wonky.
What gives this one
some curiosity value, beyond the many, many other films where the
documentary/found footage/spooky stuff is blended up, is the secondary plot,
played out in background radio reports and almost incidental conversations,
about an escalation of tensions between world powers which as the film goes on
looks likely to go from angry words being exchanged to even angrier, nuclear
missile-y mutual reciprocations. Sorta like Threads feat. Paranormal Activity. (Yeah,
I speak youth talk!)
Anyway, the first
hour's really good, then the final thirty minutes is the usual hand-held shit
where people run around screeching in very poorly lit areas and you haven't got
a clue what's going on because the bumwit holding the camera appears to be on
some kinda human spin cycle.
