This film is everything that is wrong with modern horror. Bratty characters that you actually will to die, rubbish backstories that you couldn't care less about, long boring bits of inane dialogue, pathetic attempts at jump/gross out scares (which neither make you jump or grossed-out), boring special effects and a total cop-out of an ending. Not scary in the slightest. Not entertaining in the slightest. Banal, no point to it. How on earth can someone class this kind of stuff as a 'horror'?? They get away with putting that label on total drivel now.
I hate found-footage, so why did I watch it? I remembered enjoying Blair Witch all those years ago (when it was groundbreaking)and enjoying the eeriness of it all. This film is about as eerie as watching lawn bowls. It also has the flimsiest of connections to the first film.
Have I learned anything from the film? yes, don't watch latter day sequels/remakes of great movies.
