Film Spot of the day- Zero Day
Based upon the tragic event of the Columbine High school Massacre of 1999. This film shows the portrayal of the famous killers through the lens of a hand held video camera. The story is heavily based upon the events leading up to the murdering of the innocent students. Its really interesting because the portrayal of the Killers are really humane and most of the time just footage of an average teenage occurrences. However Every now and then the teens say rather sinister and disturbing things and rapidly the film speeds up as the students start to plan the event named 'ZERO DAY'.
The day in which they will kill. The performances were very chilling and eye opening, the characters were very intense and gradually became more disturbing as the film went on. I'm not a lover of the found footage camera filming effect the motion of the camera often makes me bored and a little nauseated. Its one of the reasons I dislike films like 'The Blair Witch Project' and 'Paranormal Activity'. The films have no real story half of the time unlike this film which is based upon an unfortunate true story. Although I did like watching the film It isn't a film I would anticipate watching anytime soon. I will however probably watch it some time in the far future.
