Atrocious (2010)

IN SHORT: If you want a fairly predictable but good-cos-its-a-foreign-film on watch it on Netflix.

Atroz/Atrocious (2010) Spanish

Simple set up - family, vacation home, teens trying to make a movie, ghost stories and a spooky labyrinth. We know how it works and its alright. Again the Spanish demonstrate their love of the hand held camera motif and give us a couple of good scares - which are all mainly based on prolonged periods of them running through the woods with their infrared. Takes a while to really get going and when it all goes down, its not crazy-amazing, but what you expect, no more no less. Although it has a good little twist at the end (which again is what one expects from a one of these amature-look films). 



NETFLIX -  Yes
IMDB - 5 stars
AMAZON - 2.4/5
