Review of Lake Mungo (2009) by Horrorqueen S — 13 Mar 2018
"Lake Mungo" is what we call a needle in a haystack. It definitely has an interesting story to tell, which is shot in the documentary-style approach, & is clouded by an atmospheric & eerie feeling.
The splendid performances from the cast, the attention to detail & the addition of news coverage footage, home-made videos, interviews, tapes & low-resolution mobile videos create an unnerving experience & manipulate the viewers into feeling the story to be more believable, even real & themselves feeling more unsafe than they probably expected to be.
Overall, "Lake Mungo" is an unusual film that takes many unconventional twists & turns along the way, making us viewers keep on guessing where the story will go next while at the same time we are trying to piece together the information we are given, until the very end.
