    Basically a less interesting and less well written version of House of Leaves, turned into a B-reel horror movie. I would recommend you watch it at least once.

    This movie allegedly kills everyone who watches it. Great "marketing strategy" I suppose but I've seen it twice. It was awful. Also, I'm still alive. It's a horrible movie promoted with a great gimmick, much like Paranormal Activity.

    interesting concept. the "movie" wasn't overly scary. creepiest bit was the hunters- seemed like the most real hell on earth. the rest pretty was unbelievable- where's mom?

    Once you get past the somewhat cheesy mock-umentary opening, Antrum is great. Legitimately haunting, the main actors were believable and gutted me during some of the more intense scenes. It's not a completely fleshed out narrative, more like a tragic snapshot of these kids lives. I liked the parallels between the sister's scary storytelling having actual worldly consequences and what can be taken from the entire genre of horror movies. Themes of trauma and healing are fun to dissect post-watch. Respect to the film for doing what it did on such a low budget. Had to watch some silly cat videos to shake off some of the disturbing imagery before bed.

    This film is about the soviet gulags and the Holocaust (note the shots of the gas chambers), and particularly about the evil human beings can do when they buy in to the supernaturalism of Satanism. Believing this schmuck (as Hitler, Stalin et al did and do) led them to commit the worst atrocities humankind has witnessed. The lead actress killed her brother, because she believed in this shit. The two male actors killed others and attempted to kill the boy because they believed in this shit. This film is also mocking all those who are fearful to watch it, because they are revealing themselves to be more fearful of the supernatural symbols than they are of the reality of human beings with mental illnesses that drive them to kill. Symbols don't kill people, sick people kill people. This is an important film.

    This wouldn't have even been worth watching in 1978... The acting was really bad, actually the term bad is really being extremely generous ... People who enjoy these types of low quaility budget films may find something worth wasting their time on, but it was an hour and a half of my life that i will never get back 😁😁😁

    I absolutely LUVED this film. I found it much more disturbing, thrilling and captivatingly scary than anything I've seen in a very long while. It is horrifically beautiful, and thought provoking. The haunting lullaby is eerily enchanting and the practical effects are great, reminiscent of Haxan, and vintage horror films executed oh so very nicely. I actually feel very strange after watching the film. Something about this movie made me feel odd and uneasy, struck a nerve in my head, close to how I feel when a migraine comes on, but it's a strange sensation. I appreciate the "documentary" info after and before the film. (Wink wink) Explains how the audio and some of the imagery mess with peoples heads and YES I definitely feel that. I do feel however the "spliced in pieces" did nothing to intensify the horror element and actually took away from the darkness of the picture. I hope that Antrum will find an audience in todays world, and that people will appreciate and recognize its sick and twisted artistry. It is beautiful. It is now one of my favorites of all time. Bravo!

    Pretty interesting and super creepy fake documentary horror flick. They do a real good job of selling the curse and getting that 70's feeling in the film itself.

    This movie has absolutely no value whatsoever. Props for the fun framing, but in the end this is nothing more than a poorly thought out student film that doesn't manage to be even remotely scary in the slightest. It also just randomly gives up on its supernatural premise somewhere halfway, leaving the viewer wondering why they're even watching in the first place. They got me to watch it though, so I'll give them half a star for the cool idea.

    Not worth your time. Wish I would have read about it before wasting my time. The trailer caused me to believe most of the movie would be a sort of pseudo-documentary about the film that was found, but it was instead almost entirely just that awful movie, with very short discussion before and during the credits after, totaling under 10 minutes.
