Paul Magne Haakonsen I stumbled upon "Hungerford" on Netflix. I had never heard about the movie prior to finding it here, and nor did I know what it was about. I found it under the horror section, and thus I decided to give it a chance.I shouldn't have.Boy, this was a massive waste of time and effort. I managed to endure a staggering 45 minutes of the ordeal that is "Hungerford" before I gave up from several reasons.First of all, the movie was just blatantly and downright boring. There was nothing interesting in it for me, so my interest was quickly waning.Secondly, it is a handheld video camera recorded movie, one of those "documentary"-like movies. You know, the type of movie you could make yourself with your own digital video camera. That particular type of movie never appealed to me, because I want to watch a movie with a proper production value and a certain level of quality to it, not something I myself could go and make with my friends.Thirdly, the storyline was just boring and uneventful, and it didn't really help that the characters were essentially one and the same. You didn't know where one character ended and the other began. Which meant that you don't care about them in any way.And what was up with the oversized bugs that was controlling people? Interesting? Well, perhaps. I will give them that much. But was it something that helped to improve on the movie? Hardly so.I have no intention of returning to watch the rest of "Hungerford" because it just had nothing to offer me in any way.

Jessica Roe Awesome film, cannot BELIEVE the budget was this low. The acting is really impressive for a young British cast. Good job!Drew Casson looks set to have a bright future, hard to believe someone of that age can create a full length feature film of this caliber. British Indie film really needs more niche genre films like this. British Talent - British Label - British shoot.. not bad for a small island huh?!The characters were really engaging too, none of the mindless screamers, you actually felt something for this group of friends and engaged with their journey.

pradvertisingco Phillipa gone missing in that part. I think there probably be the second part soon. Well the story is nice. Very nice camera effects and visual effects though the budget was low. sometimes its creepy, sometimes it shows flaws because of low budget. But overall the movie is awesome if you like that shaky camera movies. It could be better if they had a big budget. The acting was reliable and good at points. Drew looks good, he'll get good movies after that movie. just nice and entertaining movie with a bit short in time. It could be 15 -20 minutes more lengthy, but good movie. waiting for it's second part.Direction was also good. The new idea of Deodorant to kill bugs was stupid but LOL .

HorrorOverEverything So I'll be the first to say that most found footage movies are stinkers. It has become the genre that film makers go to when they don't have a very original idea and want to make a film for a low amount of money. I tend to avoid them but "Hungerford" caught my eye with it's trailer and I am very glad I checked it out.The story starts off like most found footage flicks, we are introduced to our main characters and are given an explanation as to why they are filming everything, in this case it is a class project. I quickly noticed a difference in the characters in this flick as opposed to most films in this genre, they actually seemed like real people. It wasn't your usual group of beautiful people with wooden personalities, this actually felt like a real group of friends and it made me actually care about what happened to them.The action gets going very fast, and once it does the movie does not let up until the credits start rolling. Unlike a lot of other found footage films, a good chunk of this film takes place during the day which means they do not hold back on showing you everything that is going on. There are not a lot of camera cutaways or shaky running when things get going, you get a front seat view to all the bloody action. The effects were actually pretty well done considering the movies budget.The film does have its flaws as well. There were some moments where the dialogue was very cheesy and felt unrealistic. Plus I felt like the last 1/4th of the movie felt a little rushed.Overall though this was a pretty fun movie. It never dragged or felt dull and it didn't feel like another generic mediocre found footage cash in. I recommend giving it a go.7/10
