ReaderKenka Let's be realistic.

Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

ActuallyGlimmer The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

Ella-May O'Brien Each character in this movie — down to the smallest one — is an individual rather than a type, prone to spontaneous changes of mood and sometimes amusing outbursts of pettiness or ill humor.

pakman-67807 I never reviewed a single movie online and probably wont often. I hated this movie soooo bad that I actually created an account and singed up to write a review of this. Please Don't waste your time on this. It was the worst movie I've ever seen and I've seen a lot of bad ones before. You would have more fun picking a splinter out of your finger than watch this piece of junk. Ending was the worst part too. Not even scary one bit. Just kept saying how stupid and unbelievable this story is. I really don't understand all those who gave this one more than one star. I would give it a negative star if I could. I seriously wish someone said how bad this was. I would have saved my time and not watched this movie. Again this is my first review because I want to spare someone else of this junk. thats how strongly I feel about this movie. Trust me you will wish you listened to me if you go ahead and watch it.

Liam Blackburn Wow, what a creepy horror show. The scenery is great. The contrast between the pink dresses and the foggy English(Australian?) hills. Hills that served as battlefields for so many epic wars. The current war is a war of the soul. A war between heaven and earth. The ripeness of the soul is what awaits those who follow the path of the righteous. Narrow is the good path towards salvation. Exclusion from society, from the evils of civilized man, exclusion from sodomy. God manifested in the man, the polygamist, omg his face is so freaky. How did they find this guy lol. His eyes are like the darkest depths of the deepest abyss. His teeth are like a skeleton. He looks like he's a walking skeleton omg. So creepy. Was this movie shot in Aussie? It looked exactly like England wtf.

victoryismineblast Refreshing film from Australia picks up on the new trend of combining found footage and Cults. Two documentary filmmakers follow a trail of clues until they are invited to spend a few days at a cult deep in the forests of Australia. When they get there things start really getting bizarre. As they start following the daily lives of the cult members and interviewing them it becomes clear that things just aren't right. The leader, a creepy old man named Michael, regales them with tales of the apocalypse and their little group's role in it. The cult is comprised only of women and girls. Where did the men go?Comparisons can be drawn here to Ti West's "The Sacrament," and rightfully so, but this one is so much more bizarre and sinister that it seems more like a horror movie than a rehashing of the Jonestown Massacre.There are allusions to pedophilia and murder and so much else. The mood is just perfect and the scenery is at once beautiful and strangely creepy. The ending is startling as well as ambiguous and just perfect for this type of movie. It definitely kept me enthralled throughout. Highly recommended for fans of the genre, and fans of horror in general.

mendzel The great thing about Chinese food is that you don't have to work very hard to eat it (or at least I don't). I just begin to shovel food in my face.I was very glad I picked up Chinese food before sitting down to watch Apocalypse because I was so glued to the screen for the last 20 minutes I didn't even realize the bowl was empty.I'm assuming some people will draw similarities between "Apocolypse" and Ti Wests "The Sacrament" (both based on cults and both released this year) and those similarities are many. However "Apocolypse" is a grittier, more realistic-feeling interpretation of what I think it would look like inside a Doomsday Cult.While researching "The Sacrament" I kept seeing references to the real life Jonestown Massacres (loosely based upon it?) and that took away some of the mystery for me while watching the film. With "Apocolypse" I had no such pre-conceived notions and therefore was genuinely enthralled by the film and it's surprisesThe phrase "shoestring budget" is mentioned on a few websites when I was researching this film I think it was filmed in a very short amount of time with a minuscule amount of money but YOU COULD NOT TELL! This film looks as good as any major motion picture FoundFootage film out there (Devils Due, Delivery, PA). Even the small details of the film are pretty fantastic, down to the hand-made animal skin shoes the women wear.Its refreshing for a horror film not to rush and shove the gore in your face. Apocolyptic takes its time and, like a good campfire, uses it's kindling to feed the progression of a growing fire of suspense.The only downside was the lack of character development of the Cult leader: A Creepy, frail, pale, bald-headed, white-robed re-incarnation of Jesus (supposedly) I wanted to know more about him and really understand why these people worshiped him. The premise of the film revolves around him and his followers but I didn't really feel his charm or charisma come through the screen.Aside from the similarities to "The Sacrament" I found this a wholly fresh take on the Found Footage trope.
