It's not hard to see why this movie is so polarizing, but for me, this is one of those films that just stays with you in both a fantastic and unsettling way. It's one of the best uses of found footage I've ever seen, especially when you consider just how deep down the rabbit hole the film goes in terms of time loops, alternate dimensions, and, in my opinion, literal hell. While you don't necessarily see everything, what you see is exactly what the camera saw and there's no denying it. These people are literally trapped in a hell on earth, and to witness a man's descent into madness as he loses control over any sense of reality is harrowing. The final 10-15 minutes are absolutely brutal. Give me more of movies like this that have the balls to try something crazy.
