Viewing Notes
I wasn’t planning on writing about Scott Schirmer’s Found. It’s been out for a while. It is a relatively unknown film. And, frankly, it’s not especially great. But, after watching it, I haven’t stopped thinking about it for the past few nights. What I keep coming back to are scenes or ideas in the film that have me curious. Was it a condemnation of horror films/culture? Was it a condemnation of racism? A blaming the (shitty) parents of murderers? Was it a metaphor for bigger issues? Or, was it simply a cumbersome vehicle for some intensely disturbing gore effects?
