I think the short run time of this film means it doesn't over stay it's welcome, or have pacing issues. Found footage isn't always great, because too much shaky cam gives me headaches. This is better than most found footage as a whole. I liked the fact it's done from the perspective of someone trying to do up a ghost town, and post it on social media. He brings in a cousin who is better at camera work. Which I think is a great excuse to have nicer looking footage. The acting is great, and I like the fact it slowly gets creepy before hell breaks loose. It had a great atmosphere, and I think the location helps with that a lot. The location is stunning. I didn't like the weird stripe effects at the end, like why??

Needless to say that I wasn't familiar with the 2022 horror movie titled "A Town Full of Ghosts" prior to sitting down to watch it. And had I been familiar with it and known it was a 'found footage' movie, I wouldn't have given the movie the time of day. I absolutely loathe that subgenre of movies, as they are usually nothing more than amateurish attempts to make movies with a handheld camera. The storyline in "A Town Full of Ghosts", as written by writer and director Isaac Rodriguez, was actually not all that bad. But the movie suffered terribly from being a 'found footage' movie, and that totally drained away my will and interest to really delve into this movie. Suffice it to say that I didn't stick around to the end of this ordeal. The whole concept of 'found footage', social media video-makers, content makers, influencers, or whatever these type of losers call themselves, just doesn't appeal to me. And thus, "A Town Full of Ghosts" was a bitter pill to swallow. I wasn't familiar with the cast ensemble in the movie, but then again, I can't claim that I was particularly impressed or bedazzled by what I witnessed on the screen, as I just can't take the 'found footage' genre seriously. Visually, then you're not in for anything grand here. If you enjoy horror movies, do yourself a favor and skip on this one. It just simply isn't worth the effort. If you, however, enjoy the travesty that is 'found footage' films, then you might enjoy this 2022 movie from writer and director Isaac Rodriguez. My rating of "A Town Full of Ghosts" lands on a two out of ten stars.

The premise of the movie is pretty good, but that's about it. Most of the actors can't act their way out of a paper bag. Especially the actor playing Mark. If that wasn't bad enough, there's enough potholes in this movie that it's more hole than anything else. For instance, the town supposedly doesn't have power, yet there is multiple towers with blinking red lights in the ghost town. Not to mention multiple shots showing hydro poles. In one shot the pole is maybe 50 feet away from them, yet there's no power. I almost forgot there's supposed to be no running water, except one of the first scenes is Mark showing the sink and toilet im the "outhouse". Don't get me started on the old film reel some how having audio. Besides the plot holes, it's nothing more than a cheesy movie with a decent premise squandered by the poor writing, poor acting and poor everything else.

I was really digging this movie up until the last 15 or so minutes. I liked the setup-- couple buys an abandoned town in order to turn it into a tourist destination, but things begin to happen as investors pull their support. That works great and works well as a found footage movie setup. The problem comes in at the last 15 minutes when things start to go down. It pretty much goes from creepy piano to axe murderer. The movie is only about an hour long, it felt like they cut about 30 minutes out of the movie. If they had only lengthened this movie by about 30 minutes to perhaps explain why the maze, why the wasps, show characters transformation, talk about the brothel, etc this would have been a pretty good movie. Instead it goes from happy couple buys a town to everyone dies in a maze with weird time hops. On the found footage front, this movie does a bad job. Initially, it sells the FF reason by saying they're making a youtube show. In the end, you have the husband running around with a GoPro he never had and it makes zero sense why he's still holding the camera. A good found footage movie makes you believe why the person is still holding the camera, this is the opposite of that. Skip this movie.

"Town Full of Ghosts" is anything but that. Its full of something but nothing that is scary, intriguing, or worth wasting time watching. The film is set inexplicably in a part pretend, part real ghost town far out in the boonies, 3 hours away from civilization, and with no cellular service, water, power or infrastructure. Enter a young couple, hocked to the hilt, buying up the place to create the next version of Knotts Berry Farm...except, it has none of the above, which anyone will instantly recognize as laughable. The town has only one ghost, a pissed off madam from a bordello that was burned to the ground by townspeople, leaving her as the sole survivor. After hacking the 250 townspeople to death with an axe (how she was able to sneak up on the townspeople without someone hearing the slaughter, catching her in the act, grabbing a gun, and dispatching her to Hades defies the imagination), we are led to believe that Texas authorities then burned the remainder of the town down, to hide the shame of the crime. The new owner of the property knows nothing of this history, save a cryptic newspaper article, despite a theater building in the town holding maps and films explaining the entire history. Who buys a place without inspecting the grounds, or having it appraised, doing a walkthrough, asking for full dusclosure statements, etc, etc? Add to this implausible plot, awful acting, horrible dialogue, and awful photography, you get the perfect set-up for a yawn-worthy waste of time.

Quite the unique independent horror movie. We didn't watch a trailer just went for it and were happy we did. I think trailers often ruin movie experiences. This is about a gorgeous couple who buy a literal ghost town in the hopes to turn it into some kind of attraction. I don't know where this was filmed but I want to go there and get stoned. Obviously some horror ensues. Nothing ground breaking but definitely not a bad movie. I enjoyed from start to finish. All the actors are A+ and very watchable. I would recommend.

I actually seldom watch footage found movies as they give me a headache with shaky camera work. I also have low expectations for these type of indie films. However I will say that this exceeded my expectations. I was pleased that it was not even an hour and a half long and it kept my interest the entire time. The acting was halfway decent and the photography was pretty good as well. The setting was kind of creepy as another reviewer has said. I thought the maze scenes were effective. It was almost giving me some The Shining vibes. I wouldn't say it was particularly scary, but more a slow buildup to a pretty good ending. My rating is for a comparable film of this genre so keep that in mind. I don't compare these type of movies to Academy award-winning films. So the ratings to movies for me are according to genre and budget. All in all I think this was above average for a found footage type of movie. I was pleasantly surprised.

"The Shining" meets "Gunsmoke". Instead of being set in a sprawling, remotely located haunted hotel, the story is set in a ghost town in the middle of nowhere. Mark, one of the main characters, is almost a direct rip-off of Jack Torrance, complete with mental instability and a problem with alcohol. In "The Shining", Jack Torrance had Lloyd the bartender. In this movie, Mike has Billy the caretaker. There's even the ax as a murder weapon, and a chase through a maze. Like Jack Torrance, Mike's mental instability and potential alcoholism is heavily foreshadowed. There is virtually nothing new to see here, folks. The Overlook Hotel collected victims and ghosts in "The Shining", and the ghost town, Blackwood Falls in this movie does the same thing. This movie is far more predictable than it is scary.
