Review of The Gallows (2015) by Ydnar4 — 03 Oct 2015
The Gallows is a film that shows some promise with a somewhat original plot and I can even say that I was impressed by the ending but the way we get from beginning to end could not be more predictable and typical.
It is no secret that found footage films are not known to be of the upmost quality and this film seems to carry on that tradition. The shots in this movie are so convenient and the found footage only exists in this film to better set up the lame jump scares that only hit about half the time.
The actors in the film do a respectable job here but there are classic one dimensional horror characters that fall into their respective leagues. I think the best part of this movie is the first 15-20 minutes which sets up the story pretty well for a short low budget film and I must say that I found myself fairly uncomfortable during the ending so based on that you can not call The Gallows a complete failure.
Just a missed opportunity.
