Marble Hornets:
Story:
After several encounters with a mysterious entity, Alex mysteriously disappears. Jay investigates and gets more than he bargained for.
Review:
At times unpredictable and ominous, Marble Hornets should be the official Slenderman series. It is an excellent series that proves that sometimes lower budget means better film.
What I like:
1. Different formula.
While most horror films follow the story, then scare pattern, Marble Hornets tends to be a randomization, with most episodes providing story, and a random episode having a scary moment.
2. Random unpredictable scares.
There are moments when I was surprised, and other moments when I would be too drawn into what was happening to suspect a jump scare. As much as I hate them, I don't mind how they're used in Marble Hornets.
3. The story.
Marble Hornets' story keeps going and going and going. In a good way of course. The more that's explained, the more there is that needs to be answered. As such the story has a slight mystery factor.
What I don't like:
1. Slenderman.
Because faceless things in suits are rather terrifying.
Who I recommend Marble Hornets to:
Slenderman fans. And maybe general horror fans. It's a good enough series to check out.
