And since the first time I saw it, the concept truly is unlike anything else out there.<br />So just pondering the notion of a real MR JONES sending his works to random (or not random) folks is really interesting. And fun.<br /><br />I intend to do a writeup of the whole experience after the movie gets released on May 6th.<br /><br />I'm glad you guys enjoyed it.<br /><br />Rothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11329750481399948095noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-76095461860908948322014-04-28T14:15:10.418-04:002014-04-28T14:15:10.418-04:00yeah, i know a few film critics were kinda rough o...yeah, i know a few film critics were kinda rough on the ending...But, i disagree with them. i think they were looking for a different type of Scare.<br />it's Prefect tho!girl6https://www.blogger.com/profile/11569067422250197915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-13493014432049125992014-04-28T14:08:15.665-04:002014-04-28T14:08:15.665-04:00Watched it last night.

Of course the money shot for me is when the male lead hits the basement, gets oriented and then boom!, you know who is right there front and center. I was hooked from there. I don't love the found footage onslaught of recent years, I do believe however that this is such a different way of applying it that it totally works. Overall, far better than what the genre has offered in recent years, great leads, great color, tone. Awesome first full length "Rot" film. Now if I can just throw a couple hundred K your way and get you to do the ultimate scarecrow film. ;-)Ragged Grinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17753105763358767807noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-784285653010648547.post-28384474658598602392014-04-28T09:41:14.177-04:002014-04-28T09:41:14.177-04:00Thanks!

So it was a neat experience working with a bunch of folks all trying to match my organic style.
