The Borderlands - 2013 - UK

The Borderlands - 2013 - 5/10

 
Horror yarn using the found footage template.
Pair of church techs arrive at tiny parish to substantiate claims of paranormal activity.
They set up recording gear, motion capture triggers, etc ...  Investigating priest soon arrives.
Most claims are scams, trying to lure media, spike attendance in the pews.
First half sluggish, with unsympathetic characters (one being a prime twat).
Accelerates hard at the end.
All handheld.  Expect out of focus, jerky pans, dimly lit.   
As a “documentary” I never bought that angle for a minute.
