It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

I love bad horror but this movie was annoying horror. I don't even mind bad acting but this movie had annoying acting. The Female lead (reporter) thinks talking in Vocal Fry makes Her acting seem real but She's just trying to convince Herself that She is comfortable in front of a camera. It plays like a demo reel. Everyone else is terrible too. Too bad. The story was good for the genre and the filmmakers did a great job with the budget. To bad the actors ruined it.

While many found footage films rely on gimmicky things too hard to believe, The Bay covered all its bases to ensure it was a truly gripping and horrifying mockumentary.From the beginning we have the scientists trying to warn the people, the elites trying to cover it up and keep the profits flowing, the farmers not taking care of their sewage properly, an ancient creature that actually exists on this earth, the news crew that was filming (not some random teen deciding to film a trip in the woods). The sum of all of these things left you truly feeling that this could have actually happened and the government is covering it up.The only thing I wish had been different is the ending, though I had no real problem with it, personally would have done it different.

It takes Director Barry Levinson to hit a high mark with a "found footage" horror movie. Sure some shaky camera and a few plot holes concerning different opinions; but THE BAY is a keeper. A news reporter narrates and gives context to webcam, newsreel, security cam and digital cam footage to convey a documentary feel and atmosphere.A small Maryland town on the Chesapeake Bay has its July 4th celebration interrupted by an ecological situation that has ugly large parasites, invading the bodies of fish and humans. The community is contaminated by the "poop" of steroid enhanced chickens. These bugs eat their new found hosts from the inside out. Down right gruesome! Not a creature feature actually. Not a vampire or zombie flick; but a terror by disease movie. Even with gross and very disturbing images; you'll want to watch again with a couple of friends.The cast includes: Christopher Denham, Nansi Aluka, Stephen Kunken, Kristen Connolly, Frank Deal, Kether Donohue and Dave Hager.

The Blair Witch Project cursed us with found footage and the whole raft of truly awful films. So when I discovered it was a found footage film my heart sank and the TV presented saying "there is something in the water that does not want to stay in the water" my heart further sank I thought we would have Godzilla on found footage. This is more of a horror documentary which does not overdose on gore, I watched the awful Into the Storm which made the mistake of having a really flimsy sub plot which did not work, The Bay has no real sub plot but has a claustrophobic terror and a few jolts such as when the creature jumps from the fish's mouth, the blood dropping down onto the reporter and the woman in the back of the police car. This is an excellent concept and although classed as found footage does not go overboard with jerky camera work.
