That was an excellent one.

It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

I created an account just to review this show. I haven't been able to get past episode six of the first season. The host is the most pretentious presenter. He mocks every culture his visits, views everyone he meets in these countries as unintelligent simply because they don't share the same economic or educational background as he, and has no regard for the culture or customs of the people. In season 1 episode 6 (as far as I could push myself to watch) 'El Lobizon and El Pombero' they are investigating sightings of Werewolves. According to Argentinian legend, any seventh son born in a family of all boys is a werewolf and the only way to protect these boys is to name him a special name and have him baptized by the president. Well, they find one family who didn't do either of those things to their son, so they decide to stake him out for a night.That'd be fine... if he were an adult. But this is a 10-year-old boy. A boy who is already ostracized from the village they live in, so a bunch of rude American's drawing attention to him surely won't help his cause. This disregard for a local superstition that has the potential to ruin this little boy's life is disgusting. Then to top it off, in the middle of the night they sit the boy on a wooden chair, point a camera at him, and leave him there for hours to 'make sure he doesn't turn into a werewolf'. It's barbaric. This show is not funny. The host is rude, idiotic, and makes up for it by mocking everyone else so he looks superior. I won't even go into their 'investigative' techniques, as others have already done so. Needless to say, those are lacking as well.Horrible show. If you want to see the consequences of imperialism in action -- Western ideals mocking the traditions of Hispanic, Asian, or African cultures -- then this is the show for you. But don't expect to uncover any truth.

And you thought Jerry Springer was the bottom? Guess again. Destination Truth and Ghost Hunters are the new bottom. Springer is now like Masterpiece theaterIs Josh (the "camera" guy) supposed to be funny. Um...have you ever seen Chris Rock, John Stewart, Robin Williams, etc.Some have said this is parody. Of what? The parody was the South Park episode on this goofy concept. But you could easily watch this show and be in total awe of its stupidity and lack of originality.A parody is like um...Airplane 1 & 2 Scary Movie, 1,2,3,4 and now 5. Blazing Saddles.Unless this is a parody of itself meaning a parody of no concept. Show concept: Get about 12 cameras, including goofy ones wired in front of a cast member, helmet cams, foot cams, tree cams, cams on top of cams, infrared cams, flir cams, (note to self: invest in stock in cameras), and follow a 'crew' around looking for something that never happens...presto new TV concept for shows. Is this why no one really watches cable except for Burn Notice, Justified, Burning Bad. Don't you wish you could put those shows on your camera resume.But credit to SYFY. Let's suppose these "ghost busters" get some whopping fee like $500 week which would be overpaying for what they do. A staff of say 10 equals $5,000 for the cheapest program possible. If they can draw some 5000 eyeballs of low information idiots they can claim 'hey show us on cable'.The show could work if the guys get drunk all the time on shots of Jack Daniels, and got Katie out of those shapeless "ghost hunter' outfits and into outfits like the girls have on My Name is Earl, i.e. scantily clad females, the show would at the least have some eye candy. One guy could say, "hey I heard something weird, we have to get Katie into some cleavage outfits with tight shorts.Otherwise it is a bit fat zero....oh...wait...shhhh... I think I heard something outside...shh..hear that... (break to commercial). Repeat.

Over-hyper rubbish made for the ignorant and superstitious.The presenter is a supercilious, self-important publicist who cares not a whit for the truth or even a destination unless he can get some gullible production company to subsidise his trip there. The editing is woeful and 30 years out of date and the use of cuts to bring an impression of drama is pathetic.These clowns have not, and will not, ever find anything interesting because if they ever did we'd have heard about it from proper researchers, not bloviating cretins like this crowd. The blatant product placement is yet another reason to find this insult to the viewing public reprehensible television at its worst.This is one of the worst things my TV has ever spewed at me.

Cryptozoology might be considered a crackpot science, but no show makes it so entertaining like Destination Truth.Headed by photographer Josh Gates and his young and hip production crew, they get the travel the world in search of the unknown creepy crawlies and creatures nearly every country seems to have in its culture.The show has been around for about a season and half and we still don't know if lake monsters or Bigfoot actually exist.So if you want exact science stay away from this show but watch it if you just want a have a good ol entertaining time.
