Got a really great concept and is executed well. My biggest disappointment is it didn’t fully commit to the found footage late night tv concept and felt the exposition scenes and side stuff that wasn’t scenes of the live tv night itself not only wasn’t necessary but made the movie worse and more messy. Acting across the board is excellent. The director definitely understood what makes this concept great and executed that vision well. I really dug the 70s found footage late night television aesthetic. Unfortunately the third act gets a bit messy and didn’t quite land for me. But I’ll always give a film props for trying to do something more original. Just wish they fully committed and realised that the best the film has to offer is the all the live tv sections and not the extra stuff around it. I liked the tv breaks in black and white scenes because it added colour and context to the happenings of the story and the relationships between the characters and that is honestly the best way to show us that and not the prologue or detour we take in the last 10 minutes. I honestly do wonder if originally it was written without the extra stuff but then they did re shoots and added it in as it seemed to me the break scenes almost re explained what we knew from the prologue. Would have been better to just cut it and let us learn from the characters interactions. Overall though great unique concept horror film. But not quite brilliant.
