Stometer Save your money for something good and enjoyable
Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
Beanbioca As Good As It Gets
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
cheatersquad I think that this series has a great amount of suspense and is very intriguing to watch. But there's way too much walking in a forest for me. Of course there's usually interesting events occurring during this time, but it's still a lot. It gets boring after a while. The first few episodes aren't too entertaining either. Its best to watch it sped up. For not having a huge amount of money to produce this, it's very well put together. The editing is pretty good and if you can get into it, I'm sure you will be very entertained.
MaximumMadness A long-running web-series, "Marble Hornets" is something of an odd beast. On one hand, it's concept is great, and it's generally a well-executed example of the "found footage" sub-genre of horror.On the other hand, I do find there to be many problems with the execution, holding it back from reaching the perfection it is capable of reaching.But still, for fans of horror, this is definitely a must-see.The series seems to predominately follow Jay, as he tries to solve the mystery of what happened to his friend Alex that caused him to seemingly lose his mind and withdraw from society. Told from a "found footage" perspective, the early episodes alternate between footage shot by Alex some time earlier that Jay is reviewing (during production of a student-film he was working on) and newer footage shot by Jay as he investigates the matter. Little does Jay know that the mystery of what happened may be linked to a twisted, possibly-supernatural figure known as "The Operator." (Based heavily on the "Slender Man" mythos from the internet.)I'm quite torn by what to give the series for a score. As I said above, it's a series of strengths and weaknesses. And I fear that my decided on score of 7 may be misleadingly low, despite being a decent score. Because I do genuinely love the series. (Well, at least what I've seen so far.) And in terms of entertainment value, it's great for a free series.I think the biggest strength of the series is atmosphere, and wonderful use of the "found footage" style. If you're in the correct mindset, this series will definitely creep you to the bone. While the quality might not be great, it comes across as generally "true to life", and there's a wonderful sense of pacing, build-up and payoff as the episodes continue. Technical aspects like composition are also well-handled. And I find the storyline incredibly intriguing, and definitely one that makes me want to continue watching.That being said, I have some big issues. First, (and I hate to say this), the acting can be pretty bad at times. At least early on. It does rob some of the suspension-of-disbelief that is required for a "found footage" series. I also find the episodes to meander a bit too much. I feel like there is a lot of room and time that could be condensed and make for a more compelling experience. It can almost get boring here and there. Which makes it harder to want to sit through the episodes.Thankfully, despite those weaknesses, I feel that the strengths make the series one that fans of horror (and especially "Slender Man" fans) certainly must at least try out. I think it's great fun. It has a good story. And it has some absolutely, positively spine-tingling scares.I give it a pretty-good 7 out of 10. Frightening and fun, but not without its flaws.
trevorjkopp A great, suspenseful series that best represents the "Slenderman phenomenon." From a technical standpoint, this series succeeds without flaw with good special effects that are used appropriately, believable characters, and a gripping storyline. Although presented as a found-footage style film, I believe that it is one of the best examples of an otherwise cash-in genre in horror. While most Slenderman films are dismiss-able, this series creates a well balanced feel of supernatural and reality. I would highly recommend this to anyone with enough time to go through the episodes. It is a very unnerving series and this is coming who has watched hard-core horror movies since he was a child. Overall, I would give it a 10/10 for having done all the things it set out to do perfectly even if it has spawned a following of people making cheap rip offs.
xanderfaulk-629-298488 Marble Hornets is an online found footage series spanning two YouTube Channels and a Twitter Account as it follows Jay, piecing together the raw footage of his friend Alex's cancelled film, Marble Hornets, in order to find his missing friends...The less you know about the series when going in, the more scary and exciting it is. I am writing this while it has just started its 3rd and final season. So far, it is very intriguing, atmospheric and terrifying and for any fan of horror or found footage. The threat introduced in the very beginning of the series is not only visually scary but its vibes are found everywhere in the series. If there is anything worth watching online, this is it.Marble Hornets Season 1 and 2 is available on DVD!
