RT Rating: 15% You should never come out of a horror film celebrating its length, but that seems to have been the over-riding experience after The Gallows. Yet another found footage atrocity, it is ostensibly about a haunted play as a kid who died putting it on comes back to seek vengeance or something. Its really hard to care enough to pay attention. Basically, youre looking at a schoolkids in haunting peril, but played out in a medium that makes it almost impossible to actually see whats going on. That probably helps the plot, but its no good for audience motion sickness. Somehow, the film made more than $40m from a budget of $100,000, so no doubt well see the Hangman again, along with his terrible acting sidekick, their shared terrible dialogue and that awful shaking camera.
