"The Outwaters" is a severely imperfect film, but it leaves an undeniable impact. It's a daring horror film that doesn't play it safe, and Banfitch's storm of creativity is worthy of admiration. Horror fans should eagerly anticipate what he does next.

I so wanted to love this one, but it's so incomprehensible and confusing. Both of those can be done well, and I don't think this one did. Did love the gnarly effects around the end, though.

The filmmaker milks the abstract dread thing for all it's got, the cast voice-acts its ass off, and the sound effects person deserves a medal for the effort, but there's only so much jittery flashlight-in-the-dark you can watch before getting annoyed. The found-footage premise covering for a shoestring budget is long dead. Nobody would film themselves blood-soaked and scared mindless, certainly not for what seems like days and nights with the batteries in their devices never running out.

I need to rate this either 10 or 90. Split the difference and call it a 50 more for the need to give a rating than any for hint of mediocrity. It both bugs me and impresses me how it sets up its fairly standard characters and plot and then, where most movies would start to pay it off, it just... assaults the viewer. For 45 minutes. It combines the best and worst aspects of found footage and reveals them to be the same. Does that make it enjoyable? A good movie? A movie at all? I'm not sure.

Just no. I looked up the point of this film after watching only to find the majority answer "it's whatever you make of it". That's not going to work for me. Many scenes are just difficult to watch and make absolutely no sense with or without context. It's a tough sell.
