Not bad. Has its moments.
ravencorinncarluk7 September 2021
I enjoy people who tell the story THEY want to tell, and this was definitely one of those. No one was trying to fit an agenda, no one was trying to reach the broadest audience possible, no one was trying to have the perfect Hollywood ending.

I liked it. I liked the end.

Parts did kinda drag on, and the tone wavered a little too much and kept taking me back out of the story. Sometimes I didn't know if I was supposed to be laughing because the scene was MEANT to be that way, or if it was just a flaw in the acting/directing.

I'd say it's definitely worth at least one watch, and definitely when you're not looking for something intensely gripping.

Funny, silly and darling indie gem

Found this film randomly on iTunes and I'm so glad I checked it out. It's low budget, but it knows how to work the low budget into its charm. Its funny mostly throughout the runtime and the characters do a great job at their absurd hilarious banter. The movie shows what you can do with a low budget and turns the "found footage" horror on its head by making it comedic and satirical. Definitely recommend to those who like "What they do in shadows" sort of comedies.

Thank God you weren't in Sumatra in '04

This was so fun! Cult Following drew me in right away and had me thinking, "No way can they keep things this entertaining all the way through." But they did! My only nitpick is the ending: it was very easy to see where this was going, and I was hoping they would go all out. Instead, the limited budget kept things underwhelming for an important moment. But I enjoyed everything else immensely. High recommendation.

Super low budget comedy.
lemmyhead19 July 2021
Although a low budget, it spends every penny wisely. The script is brilliant. The acting is great. The photography is good and the editing superb.

It's Bob Regis (Garrett Marchbank) that makes this film. He delivers every word correctly to make them funny. His facial expressions are a treat. He carries off the character perfectly. The bumbling leader who always get through. His bravery is limited, he was in Sumatra in '04. Though.

Don't expect much horror. The special effects budget was zero. The tension is created through great editing.

This is low budget at its finest.

Watch it!

To the creators. More please!
