Only partially found footage, it goes off the rails in terms of quality when it stops being found footage, I think this was a mistake. The acting was only okay to begin with, and when things should be ramped up emotionally, the poor acting is only exposed more. However, the acting is still better than "Witchtrap", which is my bar for bad acting. I found it interesting and suspenseful and I wanted to know how it would end, but due to the amateurish third act, there is no way I can recommend this to most people. Yes, obviously inspired by paranormal activity, but not a rip-off in my opinion, it goes in quite a different direction. In fact, it is very obviously a cautionary tale, and it becomes pretty obvious the creators at least have some idea about the sham that the last 2yrs were in regards to the virus that starts with a C and ends with a 9. Nice to see filmmakers who actually know what is going on, so this film becomes a bit heavy handed sadly, but I see where they were trying to go and the allegory, I just don't think they had the skills to really make it what it should have been, and because of this, I can only give a soft recommendation to those who enjoy no-budget films that try to do something different and can overlook the some of the poor acting and bad lighting in the last 3rd.

This is like Paranormal Activities, but with aliens. The acting is atrocious, though, and even if I watched the film through the end, it was really really difficult to not just abandon the whole thing. I wanted to see how it ends, though, because it created this mystery about what exactly was going on. Not a spoiler: nothing really interesting. Bottom line: it was an effort I can respect, but a total failure nonetheless.

A good example of a well-intentioned and relatively talented crew working with no budget to make something just outside of that budget. Interesting core concept that could have been fleshed out better had the writers/producers consulted more. It's like a vegetable soup broth without the vegetables. Much more could have been done with the ideas presented, but it looks like the creative didn't seek others' opinions. Acting was okay between the two primary characters, but the other actors were clearly not well directed. In fact, the last 20-30 minutes look like a home movie (and not in the intended sense - it's like they shot in sequence and ran out of time/interest/money). Cinematography was inconsistent. Was this a 'found footage' film? Hard to tell due to the weirdly fortunate and story-breaking insert shots. Also, please diffuse your Fresnels, or you'll end up with hot spots on white walls. Film students on limited budgets: maybe check it out Film buffs: avoid Film weirdos who like bad movies: sure, but it's not Toxie-good.

The only actor with a picture next to their bio is "Mr Cates," a minor character. It's almost as though they didn't use real actors. In fact, it kinda feels like a homemade video skit. At first, I forgave it's obvious no-budget predicament as well as some glaring plot holes. It was a half decent set up for a little indie project and I was rooting for it! But audience goodwill couldn't save it. Pretty bad ... even with the above mentioned filters.

There's really not much to say about this stinker other than the obvious, bad BAD acting, slow, and just uninteresting. The fight scene at the end was bad, the "effects" were bad and I eventually just fast forwarded to the end. The plot could have worked if the acting wasn't so terrible, stiff and... Just bad. From the neighbor to the incredibly bland, monotone wife. The "effects" weren't believable either. I honestly don't know how anyone could give this film anything above one star. Pumping out bad cinema because you can doesn't mean you should.

This was a terrible movie about aliens planting their wormy life forms inside humans, creating a 'cohabitation'. It was really bad. There is a small percentage of the population that will believe any conspiracy put up on the internet! But you can trust the government! LOL 2/10.

Honestly, the movie wasn't bad. I didn't mind it. But the acting took me out of it. The acting was just bad, but it was really the only bad part of the movie. The rest wasn't terrible. I'd recommend this to anyone who doesn't mind amateurish acting.

I've never seen such boring actors in my life. Expressionless to the nth degree. Whether it's a calm scene, dramatic scene, arguing, doesn't matter they just deliver their monotone lines like robots. The girl cuts herself and barely reacts to it. The guy loses track of her one night and his words are what you say in that situation but his Expression was non existent. Just do yourself a favor and skip this or take it to an acting class and use it as a what not to do teaching tool. Bad story, bad acting, bad script, bad movie, bad decision to watch this. DON'T WATCH THIS!

A decent first hour spoiled by an absolute sh@&show of a third act that features actors that totally forget how to act and hilarious special effects. It generates laughs while trying for chills.
