At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

what a terribly boring film. I'm sorry but this is absolutely not deserving of best picture and will be forgotten quickly. Entertaining and engaging cinema? No. Nothing performances with flat faces and mistaking silence for subtlety.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

Exactly the movie you think it is, but not the movie you want it to be.

It's a decent time consumer, that's pretty much it, we have a skilled photographer taking 30+ very very blurry pictures with a good flash camera(think there were two pictures in focus), dodgy acting here and there but it's pretty much what you'd expect from a low budget film like this, would rate 6/10 if the pictures were better!And I don't know if it was just the copy I watched but all the subtitles, captions and whatnot went from right to left, like they were mirrored, impossible for me to read without constantly pausing, and there was a lot to read..

I went into this movie with low expectations and by the end of it I was genuinely surprised at how good it was. I was on the edge of my seat the entire movie which is funny in retrospect considering there wasn't a single action scene. The director really knew how to keep the entire movie in a state of suspense.

Cruising through my Fire TV; thought I'd give this one a try. Whoa! Kept my interests, no fast forwarding needed due to lengthy dialogue. All of the actors did great jobs, especially the survivor. Law enforcement portrayals were funny, though rang true in some places. Photos were creepy, especially the one with the little girl. Appreciate that there was no conclusion as to what really happened. The survivor ended up being a folk hero at the end. Recommending to my sister, another horror lover!

Is it real? Or is it Memorex? Remember those ads?This movie was a hoot! I loved it. We are treated to a documentary of a massacre in Southern-My-State and we have to put the PIECES together as we watch. You Bastards!To those close to me, many know I am not the biggest fan of the state I reside in: Arizona and yet, I love movies about our desert towns. A couple of my favorites that come to mind are: Psycho, Eight Legged Freaks (which was filmed about 1 mile from where I live) and Sicario, just to name a few. I might just add this one to the list if I see it again.Basically, this documentary shows a small, border town between Mexico and Arizona that was literally wiped out in an all-but heartbeat. One suspect and he's captured fairly easily. Now comes the public opinion.I am totally guilty of this; I see the Harvey Weinstein and Bill Cosby stories and bam, they're convicted without the justice system. Is this right? By all means, no and that's why I call myself "guilty." Now, in my defense, some leaks where they admit their wrongdoing or evidence so overwhelming that they're anything but guilty. (In the case of our current president, he's on the admitting end, but still was elected. That's a whole 'nother argument...)Anyhoo, this man is found guilty by public opinion for the deaths of everyone in this very small town and we see both sides on his plight. As the documentary evolves, the broader story emerges and you will see what this man had to endure when he was amongst the deaths of all of his friends/townsfolk. I was engaged and I didn't want to read more about the making of this movie or the behind the scenes. In fact, the information I gave you was the brief synopsis I was provided. I urge you to do the same. Go in as cold as I did and if you're a fan of the ultimate result, you will adore this incredible take on this horror subgenre. You will not be let down...as long as you keep an open mind as I did.***Final thoughts: Sure, this hit close to home for me (living in Glendale, an adjacent suburb of the capital of Arizona,) but I think this will be relevant to the rest of the country...and said president who wants to build a wall to "protect us." Well, mostly to build votes and admiration, but he claims it's for protection.Only, it certainly wouldn't have helped here.
