So I am not going to say that this is great for a found footage movie.. because this flick is great regardless of how it was filmed. Telling this story the right way couldn't have been done in any other way which is kind-of the whole essence of the found footage genre.
This tale is very well told. You can tell that proper research was done and it is believable that this situation could (and has) occurred. The actors do a good job being their characters especially the actor playing Jacob; Bailey Edwards. This guy.. well he makes you truly believe in his mindset.. the way the movie is put together you see more of the side of the mother and while you want so much to give him the benefit of the doubt.. at the end.. you just cant.
My point, give it a chance, found footage or not.. its absolutely worth a watch!
