A movie that actually scared me

Well the movie itself has some flaws. It has some parts that is really unnecessary. But the allover story is really interesting.It is one of the slowest horror/mystery movies I've seen, but i think that it benefits from it. The scares are mostly...not really scares, but they will get you goosebumps for sure. But you really have to stay the entire movie to get the entire thing. The end is what made it for me. People are comparing it to paranormal activity, and I get that, but the matter a fact is that these two movies are not very similar, the only thing really is that they use some home movie style footage.Anyway, its a good movie if you like slow movies, and good scares. But its no movie theater material.

Plodding

The concept was interesting, but got dragged down by the interview-style telling. Alice's story only had interest through the peppering of "actual footage" that got thrown in here and there.
