Polaroid

get your photo taken by this old 70's polaroid camera and you die.

I guess if you were 16 and never saw a horror movie before - you might think this was a cool film.
I don't fit either criteria so to me this movie was so bad i fell dead asleep half way through.

Typical pathetic writing. so many filmmakers seem to live in a world where nothing has to make sense.

Here's where the film lost me: in the opening scene - 2 teenage girls are going through a box of stuff belonging to one of the girls recently deceased mother (where they find the haunted camera)

The first thing the other girl does is pick a ball out of the box and flippantly throw it across the room where it goes into a dark closet.
Of course the only purpose of this was to provide an obvious future jump out scare with the ball bouncing back into the room later ... but stop right there...
What kind of friend's first instinct would be to throw a dead mothers belonging across the room while smiling?
no one

This is the kind of thing that makes me crazy .. people doing things they never would do in real life just to provide a lame scare that has already been seen in a dozen better movies. Right then i shut down. Lazy ass 'writing'
The rest of what i saw followed suit.
So many shitty horror films ... so few good ones.
