He's Watching

"It kept me interested. Yea some parts seem disjointed and stretched out but for style/acting and actually having the curiosity of wanting to know what the heck was going on, I’d give it about a 6.5/10."

"Spoilers Ahead: I'm not entirely sure what to make of this film. I feel like I would have to watch it several more times who possibly understand it. But it's not of the quality that I would necessarily wanna do that. The entire time, I felt like I was watching a b-rated arthouse acid trip. I will give the movie one thing, it is not your run of the mill paint by numbers found footage movies, and although that is a plus, it is not necessarily comprehensible. The first half of the movie felt like a lot of scenes that didn't necessarily go with one another. And there was such insanity in the execution of it, I thought possibly because of the setting of it being during a pandemic and lockdown, that maybe this movie is about how isolation can bring on madness... And honestly I could have gotten behind that theme way more than the, dad sold his children to the demon but also conveniently was gone sick during the entirety of it, and also, there was a pandemic in the background that has nothing to do with anything. Don't get me wrong, the idea of a father selling his children to a demon for fame and money is an intriguing idea. But having the backdrop be a pandemic just feels unnecessary, and although it adds to the atmospheric value of the kids feeling helpless, I think there are better ways, they could have done it that don't add to the commentary of possible extra meanings that maybe weren't meant. There's also the fact that the real life actors had the same last name as the director, so that leads me to believe the director uses his own kids, and since in the movie the father writes stories himself, there is some meaning in that I have to believe. But I don't necessarily think it comes through in the execution, unfortunately."

"It was / is an interesting concept and the kids in the movie are super cool it’s just so strange that it was hard to keep up. It did keep my attention because you wanted to know where it was going. "
