6/10
It's Alright

Yeah, this film certainly doesn't try and reinvent the wheel, but it's far from the worst found footage movie out there. The cinematography is decent and looks like a movie instead of "shot-on-$hi!eo" like so many other films looking to make a quick buck. There's gore but nothing approaching most Amazonian-Cannibal films like Green Inferno.

Yeah, there's certainly a lack of creativity for the monster since they use the sound the predator makes to indicate he's there and what we see of the design is at the very least better than SyFy channel movie CGI. The narrative kind of falls apart at the end with a stupid reveal that could've been left out without impacting the movie's plot.

My biggest complaint is the almost "conspiracy "-esque message thrown in the end about cancer and big pharna which I found to be in poor taste.

Bottom line, it's worth a watch if you're bored but you likely won't watch it again.
