For once, a found footage film with a happy ending!


I mean sure, the guy and the girl both died, but they killed the bad guy and saved the little girl. They went out as heroes. I liked that a lot. It's about as happy an ending as you can get with a found footage film.

And the camera man lived. The camera man who kept quiet and didn't yell, scream or act like a complete idiot. That made me happy.



My "#3" key is broken so I'm putting one here so i can cut & paste with it.

It would have been an awesome ending if, instead of reading about their fates, they used 'cops' style footage. Show them entering the house, finding the camera man alive. Securing the abducted girl and finding the scene and camera. Then have some cop talking about how heroic they were to risk their life for someone they probably never met, and that they can rest in peace knowing they saved her. Now that would have been a great ending.

I was happy at the end, just for the fact that the film had finally ended. That really made me happy.

The little girl at the end was only saved because she was a little girl. It is just like how The Collector ended. The little girl was saved and everyone else, even the cat, DIED! They are afraid to kill kids in some movies. If this was real life she would have at least been shot. I mean, it was dark and there were bullets flying everywhere!

Somewhat happier ending than megan is missing

i thought the fact that they died WAS the happy ending.

I was happy when the 2 most obnoxious movie characters I can recall both got offed within 30 seconds of each other. That to me was a happy ending....

And no footage was found. The story was fiction. They were just to damned cheap to do it right. Call it what it is.

We all know it's fiction. All found footage movies are fiction.
