That's one thing that I'm worrying about as well. People online have been talking about a sequel, but how would they do it? They'd obviously want to stay with the same film style (shaky cam).

If they did another film that took place during the same time, then we would be watching just more of the same. We already know what the monster looks like, so it's not as terrifying anymore.

I really would hate to see this film become a franchise, but I wouldn't be surprised if Hollywood tried their hardest to come out with another film.

For once I completely agree with you. Great, great film.

A sequel would worry me, because I'm not sure they could top this. It might feel a bit samey if we were made to follow another 90-minute handycam adventure. If they brought something new to it I could see it working, though. I guess we'll see.

That movie was awesome, I agree!! I saw it online and many people said they were sick from the rapid movement of the handheld camera(I am also a gamer, but MMO style so it didn't affect me), and some others were saying it wasn't edited correctly....I disagree with them, and totally agree with you! The editing was perfect, the actors were wonderful, this does not compare to Blair Witch project(some other people were saying that)And that monster was some scary shit...lol it was short, but sweet, and very romantic at the end...oh well :)

ok maybe I'll give it a try, I really had no interest, but seeing how this great review came from you, I'll risk it and take a look, I'll let you know..
I did go to the show this weekend and saw Juno, thought it was really well done, it's not a chick flick either....but had some great preformances in it...
