So this movie is a compilation of three short movies by different directors. Without spoiling, I will just point out few things about them
Yes, it's THAT stupid. The awful acting didn't help.
Actually, forget the quality. I love Blair Witch, it's the only movie that has ever scared me and it isn't exactly BluRay quality (it has a BR BTW).
The biggest problem with the last one is awful AWFUL, REALLY AWFUL, acting, dialogue delivery, script and hilariously bad monster puppets which I kept laughing at. I swear this is why they kept lowering the quality as the ending neared since they were trying to mask these awful toys/puppets with grain, artifacts and darkness.
==============
In the end, should you watch Battlefield Death Tales?
Well lemme put it this way. I've had this movie since 2012 and I saw first short movie and stopped watching it. Only now, in 2015, since I have nothing else to watch, I sat through the whole mess of a movie.
It's bad. Watch it if you have seen every other movie in the world and have nothing else to watch.
2/10
- MEDAL OF HORROR First movie, has zombies which aren't really zombies. The "zombies" can not only emote, but they can do kung-fu and are more capable at hunting than the protagonist (a human) is at running away from them.

- HARRIET'S WAR The second movie is clearly the better one of the lot. Despite the cheesy acting, this actually felt like something whole movie could've been based on. A female paranormal investigator joins hands with a simple village cop to solve the mystery. It was actually fun to sit through and that's why I am giving this movie 2 points.
- DEVILS OF THE BLITZ Easily the worst of the lot, this last movie felt like "babby's first horror movie". Also, the movie was shot with a webcam or a mobile phone with less than 720p res apparently, since the whole movie (unlike the first two) keeps getting grainier with artifacts showing up blatantly everywhere.
