The Last Exorcism - Was expecting more from this film as the DVD was rated 18 but to be honest it wasn't even a hard 15 so don't know what happened there. I guess the storey was ok I enjoyed the (found footage) style of filming, even though it wasn't trying to hard to be one of them films, the girl facing the exorcism did great and her double joints really did add some genuine creepiness to the film, but it was still no Exorcist
Captivity - After seeing this film I see it was actually filmed as a different thriller style film, but chopped and changed into a torture porn film, I think the chopping did have a negative effect on the film, it wasn't terrible, but some things for me were not explained very well, where as the Alternate version had some of the answers, the twist I had half worked out, convinced myself it wasn't that and made up another twist which never happened. Again an Ok film but no Saw or Hostel.
