Lake Mungo

So I am:
Totally kicking myself for watching this right before bed. I'm
so scared, but it was absolutely worth watching. I am normally a boss
when it comes to scary movies, however this particular movie has some
twists and turns that make you think about it for hours after. It
starts out slow and steady letting you in on the back story of the
family and what has happened. The whole film is shot documentary style
with interviews etc.(and let me just say, that if I didn't know this
movie was a "mock" horror or whatever you call it, I would have been
pet-ri-fied) haha.

I was a little iffy:
After the first major twist (if you will), but I promise, keep watching because the end is worth the wait. I feel like I want to tell people all about this underrated movie and how it made me feel right now, but it's late so I'll wait and just tell all you movie people who read reviews to just go watch it, in the dark. Don't be a pansy.

Overall:
One of the best I've seen recently...it's hard to come by good
horror especially ghost stories, but this one was actually pretty good.
I like when I come across something unexpected.
8.3/10 Stars.

  2. Towards the end, I really don't know if I should categorize this as sci-fi or horror. Perhaps both. However, it is a worthwhile trip indeed. Beat Paranormal Activity any day.
