This little diddy, written and directed by Karl Mueller, is guaranteed to make you vomit in 30 minutes or less. If you think that was a metaphor, think again. I mean that the continuous circular motion of the found footage filming is literally guaranteed to nauseate you. I could only finish watching the movie after taking two ibuprofen for the headache, and a motion sickness pill. The camera crew themselves had to be on drugs of some sort, whether it be mushrooms or acid, it is the only way they could have filmed this disaster. Honestly the only reasoning for making this flick would be to inflict severe physical pain on an audience. But let me put aside the camera angles and motions and get to the storyline and acting itself.
So Scott (Jon Foster) and his wife Penny ( Sarah Jones) move into the woods for one year to write a nature documentary. Apparently Scott's career had suffered a slow spot and he is supposed to be on psych meds, which he chose to stop using once they left for the woods. Relevance of that detail...completely unsure. While filming from a mountain peak we are introduced to the illusive Mr. Jones (Mark Steger) as he steals Scott's backpack and runs away. This leads to Scott and Penny searching for and finding Mr. Jones sick little hide away in the woods, considered by Penny to be this famous artist's studio. Mr.Jones apparently sent his "scarecrow" art to several persons at random, around the world, but has never actually been seen. This peaks Penny's interest and she convinces Scott that they need to do a documentary on Mr.Jones and his work.
Well it turns out Mr'Jones is more than a supernatural artist, but I will not give this detail away. I will however say that the plot becomes so random and boring that even the most ambitious audience would not be entertained. The acting was unfortunately fairly good, but the movie itself destroys the actors efforts. The ending will leave you saying...WTF???? I mean that with all due respect.
Basically I watched it for you...so you don't have to............No BaD BiRdS for this dump!
