Lance Preston and the crew of "Grave Encounters", a ghost-hunting reality television show, are shooting an episode inside the abandoned Collingwood Psychiatric Hospital, where unexplained phenomena have been reported for years. All in the name of good television, they voluntarily lock themselves inside the building for the night and begin a paranormal investigation, capturing everything on camera. They quickly realize that the building is more than just haunted - it is alive - and it has no intention of ever letting them leave. They find themselves lost in a labyrinth maze of endless hallways and corridors, terrorized by the ghosts of the former patients. They soon begin to question their own sanity, slipping deeper and deeper into the depths of madness, ultimately discovering the truth behind the hospital's dark past...and taping what turns out to be their final episode.
Leave your thoughts about Grave Encounters.
| CraveOnlineWilliam BibbianiIf it reaches your hometown, seek it out and enjoy some good old-fashioned creepy thrills while clutching your date tight and trying to pretend you're not as spooked as they are. |
| VODzilla.coAnton Bitelwhat Grave Encounters lacks in substance, it more than makes up for in real, undeniable scares. |
| Television Without PityEthan AlterOffers some decent scares once you get past the somewhat labored set-up. |
| Monsters and CriticsRon WilkinsonA ghost of a different color turns the gurneys on a hip TV production. |
| Cinema CrazedFelix Vasquez Jr.An uneasy and very entertaining ghost picture. |
| VarietyDennis HarveyThe picture's creepiness factor is sufficient to rate this a notch above genre average. |
| Slant MagazineNick SchagerTwelve long years after "The Blair Witch Project" pushed the first-person-POV subgenre to horror's forefront, and four years after [Rec] expertly refined the formula, Grave Encounters can't even pretend to be anything other than hopelessly derivative. |
| The New York TimesJeannette CatsoulisAs the uniformly annoying characters stumble around, screaming and cursing, we don't give a hoot for their survival. Quite the reverse: we're counting the minutes until the asylum's ghostly inhabitants silence them for good. |
| Village VoiceAaron HillisTrue terror needs at least some authenticity. That's perhaps too much to ask of a faked movie about a faked reality show that still can't scare up a fresh idea. |
| User ReviewAlex VA brilliant found footage film with high valuable actors, a terrific sound backdrop and a story to scare you to death. Although the movie isn't between one of the first among that genre it still remains at the top class. 5 stars. |
