The only thing worse than Found Footage Horror, is lazy Found Footage Horror. You know? The kind where the camera is inexplicably in a room the crew have never been in before filming every single character while non-diegetic music plays and awful, awful CGI scarpers by? Yeah, that kind.

I didn't just think that The Pyramid wasn't a good movie, it honestly made me genuinely mad.

Final rating:½ - So bad it’s offensive.

Horror often relies on protagonists making stupid decision, which is often infuriating.... read the rest.

The first couple of members of the archeological team really go through some painful injuries. The characters do some stupid things (of course) and the creature is kind of neat until you notice how bad the CGI is. Nora and Sunni were fun to look at, but outside of that, there's nothing to see here.
