Review of They're Watching (2016) by Abigail S — 01 Apr 2016

Can't believe how many viewers don't seem to grasp that this is primarily a comedy, too many bad reviews based on the tremendously incorrect assumption that it's supposed to be flat out horror.

As a person who's watched many of the types of shows depicted in this movie and even gone house hunting in a similar country, this film is gold. The only thing I didn't like were some of the characters choices near the end, you know, the typical bad horror movie choices that have you screaming at the tv "no! don't go into that room alone!".

But given this is a horror spoof, this all could have been intentional, as a piss take of your typical horror movie. I don't want to ruin the movie but there were some nice surprises and I was thoroughly entertained throughout, the cast were fantastic, found footage made much more sense than in most serious horror movies, and it had plenty of laughs for those of us familiar with the type of show/experience they're parodying.
