Hello, I’m looking for feedback on my debut feature film. It’s a found footage horror film about a woman trapped in a liminal room where she regresses into an animal. Would love feedback on the formal choices, acting, writing, pacing, escalation, reversals, etc. I welcome brutal and confrontational reviews, please just try and engage with the work.

Screenplay

Animal Trap Found Footage Horror Film

Shot on a $27 budget. Hostile and negative reviews welcome.

Alterations:

- Some scenes depicting genuine animal slaughter have been removed. Be warned, though, that the slaughtering of a cow is prominently featured throughout 12:44-14:05 and is flashed on-screen intermittently at 14:49-15:03.

I first watched this film throughout a history of cinema course that I took at university. The second section of the course was based on a selection of films from the 2022 Sight & Sound poll of the greatest films of all time, and Touki Bouki (Wolof for Journey of the Hyena) was one of the films selected; although it was the lowest-ranked film of the course at #66 out of #250 for the critics' poll and a tie for #72 out of 100 in the directors' poll, this was the highest rated film from the entire African continent in the former poll (and the only one in the latter). If you wish to own it, it is available in North America from The Criterion Collection and in Europe from Trigon Films.
