“Sometimes even the most skeptic paranormal researcher can’t debunk everything!”

Paranormal “found footage” style horror films have become very popular in recent years.  The low budget smash hit Paranormal Activity really paved the way for this growing trend.  Although most have been a hit, there have been a few misses as well.  In October of 2015, an independent film hit the web and has quickly gained notoriety as possibly the “scariest film online.”  That film is simply known as Rorschach. Written and directed by C.A. Smith, and co-produced by Smith and Nihar Brahmbhatt, Rorschach is a great example of “sometimes less is more.”

THE PLOT

Two skeptic, but open-minded paranormal researchers, Ricky (Ricky Lee Barnes) and Ross (Ross Compton) are on their way to their next case.  A single mother Jamy (Jamy Gillespie) is concerned that some sort of entity may be trying to communicate with her 7 year old daughter, Ashlynn (Ashlynn Allen).  When they arrive at the residence, they do what most people in their field would do.  They sit down with the client to get a background on their family history and the history of the home.  Being both skeptics and scientists, they explain that most paranormal claims can be dismissed as natural occurrences such as environmental surroundings and common old-home sounds such as creaks and knocks.

After doing a walk through without any significant activity, they decide to set up some recording equipment to see what may happen.  Immediately, they capture something odd and decide to stick around for a while to see what else may happen.  Over the next few nights, the activity slowly increases with no logical explanations.  Now it quickly becomes apparent that things may not be what they seem!

SHOULD YOU SEE IT?

I have to say that my wife and I really enjoyed this film!  It legitimately gave us that uneasy feeling, similar to what we experienced upon our first viewing of Paranormal Activity. What makes Rorschach so effective is the realistic documentary vibe and the slow-burn pace with the ever increasing tension that really delivers!  A nice and refreshing twist on the whole story is the addition of the young daughter’s child-like doll named Patrick.  If you’re familiar with the name Annabelle….enough said!

I would definitely recommend this gem of a movie to any fan of “found footage” style paranormal films.  I believe that the filmmakers behind this one really did a great job, and I look forward to what they have in store for us in the future.  Those things that go bump in the night could be more than what you think…and could really test your courage if you decide to investigate the sound yourself!
