Seventh Moon - cinematic epilepsy




Here's an another movie by Edward Sanchez, co-creator of The Blair Witch Project, following on from the mildly enjoyable Altered where he obviously had a bad experience with a  tripod becuase he's clearly decided to go entirely handheld. There's no conceit to the movie being "found footage" or anything like that, it's just shot in this way. Which would be fine if they hadnt decided to forgo an actual professional cameraman and apparently MOUNT THE F**KING CAMERA ON THAT F**KED UP DOG FROM YOUTUBE'S HEAD. There are vast swathes of this movie that are unwatchable. Seriously I watched this movie on a 10 foot projector and its actually impossible to tell whats going on when people are doing anything other than just sitting and talking. Which is a shame...could have been creepy and I would most certainly not like to get lost in the Chinese countryside. Which is what happens to the two protagonists, some chinese-american guy and Amy Smart, who ripped her jaw off in the bath in the lamentable Mirrors and got ploughed by Jason Statham in the Crank movies. And there's ghosts and etc etc, cant see anything, what's the point, buy a f**king tripod!
