All opinions are my own. We are all different. What I may think is great, you may this terrible. Don't let my opinios stop you from exploring the vast world of horror in all media.

~Mind Blowing: Search for this movie immediately. It can only be described as pure greatness and possible an instant classic.

~So Good: Highly recommended because for one reason or another it stands out above the usual fair. Put the movie on your radar as it wont disappoint.

~In the Middle: The movie is a nothing special, average affair. It may entertain in the short term but it will be easily forgettable in the long haul.

~Warning: This movie is a cliched driven slop of familiar territory. Only watch if you're really of fan of this type of material.

Atrocioius (2010)

Director: Fernando Berreda Luna

Premise:
After a family is murdered the police take a look a the home video footage left behind.

My Take:
There's a lot of footage of nothing being shot while the people talk off screen. It's boring. As are the characters.
The movie would have benefited greatly from some further character developmental and more focus on the legend the kids are exploring to help with the suspense.
Despite the movie faults, the final ten minutes are very solid.

Rating: Warning
