Bodycam

Bodycam grabs attention right away because of its concept. Following the story through the police body cameras creates a constant sense of claustrophobia and helps establish some genuinely tense moments. There is real potential in this idea, especially in how the limited point of view feeds the feeling of **** problem is that the film relies too heavily on this concept and not enough on the construction of its horror. Many events appear abruptly, without the care needed to build a stronger sense of escalating tension. Important elements of the story show up but receive so little development that they end up serving mainly as excuses to repeat similar situations throughout the narrative.Because of that, when the film reaches its ending, it lacks the weight needed for the revelation to truly land. The result is a horror film that begins with a strong premise but never manages to turn that initial curiosity into something truly memorable.
