A Ride in the Park: This was ok. Seeing the story through the zombies eyes was cool but they never explained why he had a camera on his helmet. Not a big deal i guess but to me the first rule of found footage should be to give a good reason as to why theres a camera.
It's actually very common for these people to film their bike rides - youtube is full of them - but I agree with you for most of the rest of the film, especially Safe Haven. If this was 'found footage' who edited all the camera feeds together. Didn't make sense. And if I remember correctly, Safe Haven had some POV shots that weren't thru a camera (I could be wrong on this though). Any way when your whole framing device is based around this, it really takes you out of it when you break your own rules.
