Megan Is Missing
𓏴 ࣪ story & plot 🎬 ⠀⠀
Fucking hell how do I start this. I know this movie is based off of a real case. I know stuff like this happens every day to so many people, especially young girls. Is that tragic? Yes. Should it be talked about? Yes. Should victims be able to talk about it? Yes. But making a movie about it that feels like nothing but a complete fetish? Fuck no. There's so many better movies based off of real life cases and they didn't fetishize it and made you feel guilty and immersed and had you think about your actions. This felt like a PSA about 'don't trust people on the internet' that your parents would show you when you're young.
♰⠀ 𓈒 ⠀ cinematography & visuals ✙
Typical found footage. Saw a lot of people complain about it, but if it's about found footage, expect found footage quality. The only really shocking visuals that made it feel like horror were the two images and the barrel scene.

Not impressed at all. Wasn't immersive, no cool scary shivers down your spine feeling. Nothing.
࣪ ۫𓂅 directing & pacing . ⟢
For fucks sake it was so boring. Stories about real life cases are supposed to drag you 8n so you listen and so that the victim gets attention. Not even half time into the movie it really started. 50 minutes of the movie felt like the intro. I had to basically listen to it like a podcast. And the end Jesus.. we did not need to see every crumb of dirt being spread.
᠃ ᠌acting 📽 casting 𓍢 ::
They could've done something with the acting. Making it seem like it actually was found footage. But no one acts like that. No kid talks like that. I don't even want to blame the actors because the director is probably at fault. The only good acting was unfortunately the rape scene. I hated it with my guts, but her acting actually showed what it's like for so many victims. Slowly giving up. Being drained.

If you have to wait for more than half of the movie for it to actually start, stop and trash the movie. I only watched this because it got attention online and I wanted to see what it was all about. They were right. It was shitty. Either the director is some messed up creep or someone else in the direction team is a pedophile. This made me feel nothing but disgust. I bet old men get off of this. Why is more than 40 percent of the movie about not even teenage girls being raped and drugged what the fuck.
