• The Bay [Blu-ray]

  Linda McGarrigle 21 March 2013

  

  I watched this last night! not normally a fan of found footage and shaky camera work myself BUT this was engrossing and the shaky camera settles after 10 mins, gotta say was really surprised by this it's different to any of the other found footage type films iv'e seen before in the sense that it is probably the most consistant and detailed found footage film to date, normally i'm watching and picking at what has been missed or the impossibilities but i didn't with this one , although i knew on a couple of scenes i didn't want to see what was coming i couldn't tear my eyes away, i scratched at my skin all the way through it lol this is what my nightmares are made of and i really loved it. Barry Levinson's Direction is what sets this apart and completely raises the bar for found footage movies of the future. Definitely worth a watch but be warned you will never look at a glass of water the same way again ;)

Barry Levinson directs this found footage horror in which a trainee journalist captures the chaos that afflicts a small US town when an infection breaks out that appears to stem from the water system. The illness produces symptoms such as vomiting, skin rashes and internal bleeding and spreads with such devastating swiftness that the town, Chesapeake Bay, is swiftly quarantined and its hospitals overrun. Among the human stories documented by young journalist Donna Thompson (Kether Donohue) on her news camera are the efforts of Dr Jack Abrams (Stephen Kunken) to track down the source of the virus while also attempting to treat it and the horrifying discoveries that await police officers Jimson (Michael Beasley) and Paul (Jody Thompson) as they respond to 911 calls. However, has the worst consequence of the outbreak yet to make itself known?
