Found Footage Horror Movie Tournament

[Straker]

Okaruto.

Kôji Shiraishi makes a quality found footage movie, even with the wacky ending its still a solid movie. I'd recommend it to FF fans who haven't seen it. Any FF fans not familiar with Kôji Shiraishi should also definitely check out Noroi.

Why would anyone vote for that? A link is not an ending.

I actually liked that movie okay and thought the ending was not that bad, albeit a bit rushed. I think people had high expectations when it came out, given its heavy and widespread advertising, and when it didn't live up to the expectations, the negativity from critics was overblown, resulting in a low opinion as widespread as its advertising effort. Now everyone that watches it for the first time goes into it expecting it to suck. I believe that if it would have had a quiet release as an indie film, it would be considered a decent film, comparable to a lot of slightly-above-average found footage films life The Tunnel or Apartment 143.

Having said that, I'm not going to vote for it since I haven't seen either of the other two, and don't think it's so good that it deserves a blind vote.

It's more that it completely cheats the audience out of an actual ending, and it's just a big marketing ploy. Had the movie just ended with the crash, then the movie would have been just a normal level of bad, but the link made it so much worse.
