Greystone Park (2012)

To me, this movie is perfection.

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

An old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.

Personally i think the lower ratings are a tad harsh. The film has potential. I love films that build atmosphere and in places this film does it well.The acting is average, no one would win an Oscar. The ending seems rushed and incredibly confusing! I was left wondering what actually happened to them, and looking at other reviews many feel the same...so if anyone can explain what actually happens please enlighten me! It wont win any awards by any means but it is fairly entertaining. Don't throw it aside just yet, give it a go. Just excuse the cheesy graphics at the end and enjoy trying to work out if they actually die or not :)

Greystone Park aka The Asylum Tapes.. starts with the master director and his prodigal son (?) discussing about ghosts and spooky things in a dim lit dinner table along with few other guys and gals.. And,, some of them head to film the Greystone park and the mental asylum which is there.. The horror starts..Should i say horror or utter confusion.. ??What goes next is a serious rehashed scenes taken from well known found footage movies.. and its so disgusting and comedy filled direction less scenes.. you would actually destroy your beloved DVD player or bluray player or the TV in which you are watching this nth grade noobish movie..If you are a true horror fan.. just give it a go.. and fast forward all the way and finish the movie watching in 3-4 minutes. Thats it. The so called great Oliver Stone is appearing in few frames .. for reasons unknown even to the smartest Sherlock Holmes alive ... maybe MiB3 would appreciate better.. ;-)

I am afraid to say, that although I watched the film this evening, my brain found it hard to comprehend the dullness that was thrust upon it, and so images of the film are already leaking away as I type this so sorry for lack of info. I am a huge fan of found footage films, which is the reason I got this. I was hoping for at least Grave Encounters level of film but instead got college student attempt at horror film... My main problems with this film is that nothing much happens, they keep shouting at each other over naff all, and you can't see a bloody thing a lot of the time! I paid 8 quid to look at darkness while people shout. I could get the same effect by hiding in an alley at night and occasionally jumping out at people while screaming boo, for free! I am being rather nice with a 2, but if I gave it a 1 I would feel even more depressed about paying the amount I did for it...

I had to give a 1 because of IMDb but seriously, this movie shouldn't even have that, everything about this movie could have made it a great one, but sadly the idiot who wrote it (sean stone) didn't seem to either understand how to make a decent horror movie, or it was constantly played for $h!its and giggles, which it failed at-abysmally. When watching I constantly got the feel that it was supposed to be the "spirits" or whatever it was, was attempting to drive them insane, and if the movie had been played like that, the whole spiritual power thing was both messing with their minds and the camera as a sort of "its trying to drag the audience in as well" that would have worked out perfectly well, especially with the scenes at the end with 'crazy Kate' (again, as portrayed, doesn't make sense) but we're just supposed to believe that a story told to them at the start just happened to appear at the end? No, it doesn't work like that in storytelling, even if its supposed to be 'inspired by real events' it wouldn't work like that. Ah, getting off topic, this thing just feels draining, you don't like the characters and it never pays off with creepy moments or jump scares, so when you've had the built up feeling of adrenaline in your system flow out of you, you'll feel tired and bored, is that what you want in a movie experience? I just wish people wouldn't make things like this, its insulting, tired, lazy and trotted out, but most of all - a complete waste of money that you could spend on anything else to give you a better experience than this movie will give you.
