Cowen Rosewell lives with a small group of old friends in a scruffy flat in a small English town. Like many teens leaving school in 2014, there are few prospects or opportunities for people like Cowen so he has enrolled on a BTEC media course as a way of passing the time. His first assignment is to record everything during a week of his life. At first Cowen dismisses the random acts of violence he witnesses as the business as usual in a small English town. However, when one of his best friends is savagely attacked by a stranger, and in defending her they kill her assailant, the inexplicably serious nature of the dead assailant's injuries alert them to a more disturbing reality.

Hungerford (2014) Reviews
Almost as bad peeing out a kidney stone.
The basis of the film is of a student documenting his life for seven days for coursework. If however it had stuck with that premis and turned out that the student had hoaxed the whole situation for the footage it could have been slightly easier to swallow. Because that's exactly what it looks like. The opening 15/20 minutes is slow and uneventful as your dragged through the introductions of the sorts of characters you avoid at all costs. Not because they're mean or edgy in anyway but because they're just painfully unlikeable. Right up until the first death scene where a slightly disgruntled postman gets slotted with a bottle deodorant. The props look like they were stolen form a discount toy store, the special effects look like they've been added by a drunk six year old child using an etcha-sketch and the delivery of each line of script from all characters is about as engaging as the helium slowly seaping a funfair balloon. The last "we will fight" statement at the very end is just cringe worthy. It's not often you watch an invasion film that makes you actually root for the end of mankind. God awful. Just god awful.
Good effort but...
Can I just say that I fully understand that this was probably filmed on a micro-budget and I applaud the efforts of the team to get a finished project on to the screen. Also you can't help but admire the passion and commitment shown by these youngsters, they achieved something that is very hard to do. That being said this is not a good film. Sorry but I have to be honest. The dialogue is badly written, the acting is sub-par and the plot is full of holes and terrible, unbelievably stupid decisions, for example the car. Plot spoilers coming. Phil sneaks off to get the car in order to redeem herself after putting everyone's lives in danger. In doing this she causes her friends to go looking for her, putting everyone's lives in danger. Dumb idea. Both Phil and Cowen planned to go alone to get the car, early in the morning. Wouldn't it make more sense for EVERYONE to go for the car, providing some safety in numbers and, when they reach the car, they can just drive off without needing to go back to the flat? But, my biggest issue with this scene was that Hungerford wasn't full of abandoned cars. Are you saying that not a single one could be stolen? That, in the emergency, they couldn't just take a walk and find a house with a car in the drive, break into the house to find the keys and just steal the car? They were literally walking past parked cars and vans on the way to find the car at the council offices. That's just one example, there are others. So, can I recommend this film? As a film, not really. But as an example of what some young adults can do with some determination and a camera, yes I can.
Don't Waste Your Time!
I had hopes for this B grade movie but after watching 30 minutes or so I realized I was to generous with the "B Grade". Bad acting, bad actors, especially the lead actor who was so over dramatic in some scenes it bordered on sickening. Bad direction thorough out the film especially the car crash scene, and way to many more to mention. The director who I just found out is the lead actor as well (That answers a lot of questions) should really look for another line of work as Directing is definitely not his strong suit. I could keep going with what is wrong with this film but it's really not even worth my time complaining about it.
Found footage that I'd preferred to stayed lost tbh.
I watched the trailer for this and then saw the rating on here, but couldn't really make sense of it. Cause the trailer made it look like a pretty darn good movie for a found footage flick. But while watching it it becomes painfully clear why the rating is the way it is. No sense for tact and sub-par acting and characters that aren't particularly likable. Starts off with a massive explosion in a building that lit up the skies, and what does our 'heroes' in the movie do? Well they throw a party of course! There's countless of illogical acts performed by the characters through-out the movie, I will not disclose any more of them as that would kind of spoil it if you still chose to watch it. But yeah put your brain on ice for this one if you necessarily feel like you should watch it, although I'm not sure that will work. Nothing more to say about it really.
Whaaaat?
I'll be short... There should be prohibition to rent or sell equipment for making movies (bad home movies)... God help us!
