Leighton Trent’s review:
Its base idea is a good one, especially not going with the "found footage" track, but simply by camera perspective. It has a choppy start, but moves better the further it goes, though the ending feels overwrought. For a small budgeted film, the special effects are nicely used/don't feel out of place and some of the camerawork used within the narrative structure of the characters being able to manipulate objects into moving on their own, made for creative visual appeal for the audience.
