"They did a great job on the gallows" was spoken just 2 minutes in. When you watch the remaining 78 minutes, you will seriously want to hang that lying piece of filth yourself.
Or the writers. Or the same egotistical directors. Or whoever thinks this found footage crap is EVER a good idea.
Basically, 20 years after a play kills a student, the new class decides it's not in poor taste to put on the same play for REASONS. On the night before the play begins, a group of three douche-bags break their school at night to sabotage the play for more REASONS and the lead girl one of the boy likes wanders in to join the party for even more REASONS and then they explore the 1,590,000 square foot high school drama theatre because all the doors and exits are locked for, yep, super REASONS.
Now, REASON with me on this one. The found footage shtick ran its course with the third movie that was released that way. It's painfully obvious why Hollywood has no creativity with these types of movies, namely horror films: spend $5.00 and make $58 million. But the attempts to make it somewhat realistic are just exhausting after a while. Especially when we have to look at a bunch of teenager's feet or the floor for tension and someone always has to be holding onto the camera when they really should be helping.
I digress; the lazy film making technique is one thing. But, the laughable suspense here or the reason we see the kids run around in circles for an hour is actually entertaining, albeit in an unintentionally hilarious way. And though the ending is seen from the beginning, it's still downright laughable.
This movie contains no real substance and just relies heavily on all the other dozens of found footage/ghost stories without ever coming up with something fresh or creative. I guess if you can't get enough of the same old, recycled mess as explained above, maybe you can add this to your guilty pleasure list. But, most smart people need to spend their precious 80 minutes on more productive art.
