My review/take:

A horror film that is pretty mind-fucking. I am dead serious about this.

The approach of this film is pretty similar to Haunted Changi and Blair Witch Project. But personally, I kind of like this.

The Haunted House Project is a mockumentary. Somehow I feel that these few months, there's quite a number of films that uses this approach in their films. Could this be the "in" thing during this moment? Hmmm... I wonder as well.

So it opens up with some interviews of the neighbourhood people and bits and pieces of the rumoured story gets in place. And the editing for this part is pretty eerie. There's like snapshot of the white in color dress lady (supposedly to be the ghost), and some random cutaways of the house/factory.

Audience will only know the backdrop of the whole story via the interviewees..

Then it cuts to the exploration scenes of the "filmmakers" and the team. Once again with the shaky camera techniques, audience actually feel more involved with the film.

I am not going to talk much about the film in this part as that's the juiciest part in the whole film. It's the part where I try to shift my focus to other areas in the cinema. But somehow or rather, I will still try to look at the screen.

This film is definitely a good film but not recommended for the weak hearted due to the suspense atmosphere. It's just amazing.

For this film, I shall give it a 3.5 out of 5 popcorns.

Another note is that due to the shaky camera technique, you might feel a little nauseous.

Hence, have fun watching this film and SCREAMMMMMM...
