cansinpek Every slave ahem everyone must watch, then research and discover the truth for themselves!
Nikron Chemist Kushari I have always been a huge fan of conspiracy theories and anything related to the hidden truth out there whether it is some Templar stories or secret societies....Unfortunately, most of these conspiracy films are identical to each other and always follow the mainstream trends such as 9/11, the all seeing eye, moon landing and so on..This movie is something completely different, something that I have never heard of or seen before. It uses actual articles and names that can be found on the internet... if you dare to do it after you have finished watching the movie.One string point about the movie is the way in which it links a documentary to a thrilling investigation that will make you think twice about asking questions that should not be asked...
Tom Siebert Friend of mine recommended this and I was dubious because low budget indie horror films are usually bathed in blood and predictable and stupid but this was none of those things. It's smart, builds well, and doesn't pound the audience over the head. It's also very slyly subversive in how it delivers the facts behind several real conspiracy theories, including 9/11, America's intervention into WWI and others. The performances are a little bumpy in spots, and some of the dialog near the climax didn't feel natural to the point of almost being comical. People might also be put off on the faux- documentary style, particularly in the last act when it's all shot by hidden cameras on the protagonists' tie-clips (though, to the director's credit, he gives one of them a small smudge in the corner, so we know whose perspective we're getting).Overall, a knockout debut from writer/director Christopher MacBride. Will definitely be looking to see what he does next.
MattBirk While the ending is where all the excitement is, the lead up is a slow 65 minutes of clichéd genre tropes. 'The Blair Witch Project' succeeded as a found footage, because it built up tension throughout the whole movie, and brought a harrowing and memorable ending; 'The Conspiracy' does neither of these. There are far better found footage movies out there (even though I am very anti-found footage), most notably 'Noroi: The Curse', 'The Blair Witch Project', 'V/H/S 2', 'Clover Field', and 'Behind the Mask: The Rise of Leslie Vernon'.Full Review at: http://www.simplefilmreviews.com/2014/07/the-conspiracy-2012_30.html
