Honestly I love this found footage. Not only does it take shots on found footage itself but takes itself to an experimental level where those covering the found footage become part of it as well. Basically a found footage of a subject during the past, present, and near future. Admittedly, I wasn't a fan of Gavin starting out but i can see how this character tried to make the film something more than just a mere found footage like everything else that is out there. Awesome to see Eduardo Sanchez in this briefly. Also, that ending was...<I>shudders</I>
