Even if it is another "found footage" flick, it's still has at least some potential.

You lost me at found footage, and lost me even more with M. Night Shymalan. Two big reasons to avoid this movie.

The movie Devil wasn't all that bad. If it had been the security guard behind the screen all along , then it would've been a much better movie.

The devil is around? How do you know? Because the toast landed jelly side down!

Did you know that that's actually a thing in certain countries?

Personally, I think that the "found footage" technique actually works in this movie's favor.
Much like it did with "As Above, So Below."
It barely worked for Chronicle btw. I thought it was stupid when the guy telepathically lifted the camera to go behind his shoulder. If he was just going to end up doing that, then why not shoot the movie normally then?

BS. And if so, that doesn't stop it from being stupid.
As Above, So Below was garbage.
Chronicle was actually surprisingly good. Chronicle was originally supposed so be filmed normally and have a lot more in it, but their budget was constricting so they made due with the found footage thing. I'm glad they worked in the telekenesis to steady the cam.

The last good thing M. Night Shymalan made was Unbreakable.
Maybe the Detective with the mustache was the true devil. and the old lady was just a doppleganger.

That also would've been a good idea. The Nostalgia Critic gives M. Night too little credit.
Blasphemer. I loved that movie.

Gotta be honest, some scenes seems pretty silly, but there is potential in it.
I personally love The Sixth Sense and Unbreakable, and The Sign still got some creepy good idea.
As for The Happening......
I know it's overused, but I had to do it.

"Outrun this!"
That's one way to give your kids a phobia toward their grandparents.
Also, I'm totally watching this when it comes out.

As if they weren't freaked out enough already.
I guess i am one of the lucky people to have the best grandparents ever. They've been giving and still give me candy every time i visit them

The original title of this film was "Sundowning". Guess the twist now.

I think found footage can be an okay way to style a horror movie, Blair witch project (I think that was it) comes to mind. The problem is that the style is more over saturated than a cake made of solid fat covered in butter.
