Displacement

[Disqualified, and didn't come to their heat = BOO] Not sure if you deserve a review if you don't come to your own heat but here goes. More found footage because the team clearly wanted to use this new genre. Only this time it is for a sole survivor to record their own activity for their own shits and giggles. Think I Am Legend but in an office with not a lot going on and you've pretty much got the film, until a mysterious strange figure is viewed on a monitor that covers outside. Given horror was the actual genre not hard to guess what happens next. Focusing on just one character is ballsy but you basically need to play it for laughs or have someone with chops who can pull it off. Maybe next year hey?

This film documented the experience of a sole survivor holed up in an office building. I agree with the previous reviewer who put forward the notion that this team obviously wanted the "found footage" genre and so would work it into any genre they were handed. I think this was a little too obvious and suggests that the team were unwilling to spontaneously create a film in 48 hours. I think the male lead was an adequete realistic actor and could carry such a film on his own however the plot was too cliche and severely lacked any horror or suspension. I agree you don't need to be over the top to create a good horror but there should be suspension where the audience feels uneasy that something bad is or could happen at any moment. The ending was lacklustre and was more comedic than horrifying. However there was good use of comedy throughout the film paticularly at the start. I found some of the other films from other genres darker than this one. Good premise and acting but the script should of been worked on more to build suspension and fear.

A horror in the vein of 'Blair Witch' - found footage style was a little over the top - perhaps some steadyshot, or a counterweight for the camera next time? The final 'Boo' moment was let down a little by its predictability, and lack of impact on the storyline. Not totally clear if the character was Nicky Brick..
