My rating for the first movie of this franchise : HITHDesert 6/10. I don't remember much about this, the thing i remember is that it took too much time before it became intense. I kinda liked it but it was not definitely a MUST WATCH for horror fans.

About MINERVA : There is a possibility i overrate it. I love FF movies. I always have a lot of fun watching movies of this genre, there were not many of them which i feel i shouldn't have watched them when they ended. So, you have to be a fan in order to watch it. It's probably not amongst the best FF movies but i have watched many worse. It kept my attention until the ending, i found it interesting and thankfully, it didn't took too long until it became intense (Unlike the first one, as i said).

Don't expect cheap jump scares and many scaring scenes. Furthermore, don't expect to get answers about HITDesert lore. Unfortunately, it's a bit messy too, kinda confusing story lines and one of the most open endings in horror movies.

Still, i liked it and i will watch the third movie soon. There is something intriguing here. It's more creepy/eerie than scary, more mystery than horror. And there were some scenes that made me feel too uneasy.

I rented the movie after reading the highly rated reviews. Most of the suspense moments in the movie happen in the dark and I had to glue my eyes to the screen to be able to see anything. Not sure where the horror is; I could not find it. Just as I thought things were picking up, it ended! I'm now sitting here thinking what it was that I actually watched (or not; because the screen was dark most of the time). Accounts of a journalist who looked like she was wearing a wig, some found footage shown here and there, and blurry scenes where I thought stuff "might" actually be happening... That's what I'm left with. Well, thank you but, no thank you.
