Konterr Brilliant and touching
Comwayon A Disappointing Continuation
Stoutor It's not great by any means, but it's a pretty good movie that didn't leave me filled with regret for investing time in it.
Rosie Searle It's the kind of movie you'll want to see a second time with someone who hasn't seen it yet, to remember what it was like to watch it for the first time.
holzermhol I went into this movie with low expectations and by the end of it I was genuinely surprised at how good it was. I was on the edge of my seat the entire movie which is funny in retrospect considering there wasn't a single action scene. The director really knew how to keep the entire movie in a state of suspense.
thesar-2 Is it real? Or is it Memorex? Remember those ads?This movie was a hoot! I loved it. We are treated to a documentary of a massacre in Southern-My-State and we have to put the PIECES together as we watch. You Bastards!To those close to me, many know I am not the biggest fan of the state I reside in: Arizona and yet, I love movies about our desert towns. A couple of my favorites that come to mind are: Psycho, Eight Legged Freaks (which was filmed about 1 mile from where I live) and Sicario, just to name a few. I might just add this one to the list if I see it again.Basically, this documentary shows a small, border town between Mexico and Arizona that was literally wiped out in an all-but heartbeat. One suspect and he's captured fairly easily. Now comes the public opinion.I am totally guilty of this; I see the Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby stories and bam, they're convicted without the justice system. Is this right? By all means, no and that's why I call myself "guilty." Now, in my defense, some leaks where they admit their wrongdoing or evidence so overwhelming that they're anything but guilty. (In the case of our current president, he's on the admitting end, but still was elected. That's a whole 'nother argument...)Anyhoo, this man is found guilty by public opinion for the deaths of everyone in this very small town and we see both sides on his plight. As the documentary evolves, the broader story emerges and you will see what this man had to endure when he was amongst the deaths of all of his friends/townsfolk. I was engaged and I didn't want to read more about the making of this movie or the behind the scenes. In fact, the information I gave you was the brief synopsis I was provided. I urge you to do the same. Go in as cold as I did and if you're a fan of the ultimate result, you will adore this incredible take on this horror subgenre. You will not be let down...as long as you keep an open mind as I did.***Final thoughts: Sure, this hit close to home for me (living in Glendale, an adjacent suburb of the capital of Arizona,) but I think this will be relevant to the rest of the country...and said president who wants to build a wall to "protect us." Well, mostly to build votes and admiration, but he claims it's for protection.Only, it certainly wouldn't have helped here.
tjpierce-45675 A good faux documentary about a zombie attack that wipes out a small town in Arizona, after which a Mexican immigrant who photographs and survives the nightmare is scapegoated for the massacre by racist officials, who dismiss the photos as a hoax. The film's depiction of Arizona's racist rubes as, well, racist rubes, is spot on.
dominicjarvis-07269 Horror, tension, gore, mystery. Really enjoyed this film. An excellent faux- documentary with a very genuine cast. Clearly a lot of thought went into it, and a lot of love for genre filmmaking. Would love to see more films out there like this. From start to finish, it doesn't let you go, with plenty of ups and downs along the way. Definitely will watch again, and hope to see more from these filmmakers in the future. Would be great to see more.
