Nicely done, atmospheric as all get out, and scary instead of gory which was a pleasant change. Acting was pretty top notch with a fairly small cast. Would recommend and watch again. Just happened upon this one via Hulu and glad I bookmarked it to watch later. For a first time directorial effort I think this stands out as one the better I have seen and I have been to my share of film festivals. Really look forward to seeing future endeavors by all involved. Don't let the found footage tags scare you off it really is not over used and what is has been incorporated well into the storyline, not just used as a gimmick. Not sure why this had to have "Russian" setting as it really did not add anything to the story and just seemed to be the only misstep.
score 7/10
