Grave Encounters RIP OFF!!


Why copy an amazing horror?

Grave Encounters was fantastic. Very fun movie. The sequel, not so much. I'm just watching Blair Witch now. Hopefully it's not awful like many are saying...

Lots of screaming .omg shut up . I thought it was annoying the first one but at least it was authentic at the time . But this one was just lots of screaming and well pretty much I just watched the first one over again. Except for there was a drone . You know there was a fight / some things hanging in the tree's / people screaming continuously even though you would think maybe shut up and try to be quiet at least . Oh and the house and it was dark and all you can hear is panting and screaming and you are watching things like you are on acid . Then more screaming . Oh they added a drone

I agreed. "Grave Encounters in the Woods"

I think the only movie this ripped off was the original Blair Witch as it was more like a remake than a sequel.

I will however nod by metaphorical hat at you for the acknowledgement of the fantastic underrated Grave Encounters.🎩

Why thank you good sir :)

Here's my theory. It reminded me of the movie "The Objective", which was written by Daniel Myrick, the writer of the original Blair Witch Project. The Objective had a similar plot line with the whole cursed territory/lost time scenario, so maybe that's where they got the idea. It was made in 2008, so technically "Grave Encounters" ripped it off from them!

Edit: Now that I think of it, the 2013 horror movie "Mr. Jones" also used the lost time, sun won't come up story line as well.

Wow - thank you for reminding me of Mr Jones

This is basically BWP meets Mr Jones

It was an ok movie though

Agree with you, I really like Grave Encounters and recommended in with some of my relatives of who loves Horror movies. The Sequel is good too but too much stuff was going on.
