Pros: Might spook you with a little imagination
Cons: Horrible acting, misleading, disappointing for any genre

The worst thing that could ever happen in Hollywood has; bad actors who have to pretend not to be acting fail. This is the second worse movie I've ever seen.

The plot
Sure, it sounds interesting. Put a psychic, a ghost hunter, an...

Pros: Interesting premise
Cons: The actors, script, total unbelivabilty of a "true account"

The St. Francisville Experiment had been hyped on a few websites while still in production, and I looked forward to seeing the movie that was supposed to be "Blair Witch", but real. One of the consultants on the film is Troy Taylor, who is an...

Pros: Reviewer's fodder
Cons: Too numerous to list.

It took less than a minute to realize that "The St. Francisville Experiment" was going to be a cheap imitation of "The Blair Witch Project." I'm not a fan of "Blair Witch" and did not expect much from "The St....

Pros: Some Slightly Scary Moments
Cons: Horrible Acting, Gaping "Plot" Holes, Keeps Up The Rouse That It Is Real

I was lured into watching this movie one night under the pretense that this "experiment" was actually real. A documentary about ghosts, filmed Blair Witch, first-person style? I was interested, and the beginning of the film definitely does give the...

Pros: HA!
Cons: Everything.

They say this movie is not really a movie at all, but a documentary, they being the people that put this total piece of garbage together. It's pretty easy to tell from the start that this is a total sham, but after thinking about it, I'm convinced that ...

Pros: Great dialogue, surprising moments disturbing plot, very funny interaction between the stars
Cons: Not very original

Despite what most people say, this is a very good movie. It was supposed to go to theatres, and if it had, I assume it would have been a big hit. A group of 20 somethings go into a haunted house with video cameras...okay so it's not original. I loved...

Pros: The video was so rarely rented that it cleaned the heads on my VCR !!
Cons: Please see the appendix, pages 1 through 62.

What do you get when a couple of uninspired aspiring 'actlesses' get together with a pair of drunken frat brothers and a camera?

A headache.

If they would have at least edited the sound in such a way as to be continuously audible...

Pros: interesting plot idea
Cons: wasted a good idea

If you are looking for a blair witch type of movie with realistic scares and suspense, look somewhere else. This movie is so bad.
But let's start at the beginning. The idea is that 4 young people are going to be locked in a haunted house over...

Pros: None
Cons: Script, Actors, Plot, Theme, Directing, Editing, EVERYTHING

Of course the main reason for one to view the St. Francisville Experiment would be credited to it's older sibling The Blaire Witch Project. This movie was a cheap "wannabe" Blaire Witch. The list of cons goes on. For one, the movie was a...

Pros: Troy Taylor is in it
Cons: Bad acting, bad plot, bad effects

I anticipated this film greatly, and I was very excited about it. Everything was supposed to be real. It was a real haunted house, real people, real ghost hunting experiences. I went to a screening of this because Troy Taylor, the president of the...

Pros: Good Laughs and Good Scares
Cons: Ending a bit weak

I first saw "The St. Francisville Experiment" screened last April at the Los Angeles Film Festival and it was a hit! People (including myself) through out the packed theater jumped out of their seats several times from fright and then laughed...
