Default Atrocious (2010)

Has anyone seen this Spanish horror film? It's playing at Frightfest, then it's coming out on DVD shortly after. It's had good early reviews from the festival circuit (like Sitges and Slamdance), and the trailer looks really interesting.
It's a found footage horror, which is a genre that is getting a bit done to death, but apparently Atrocious gives it some fresh blood. There's a lot of good horror that's come out of Spain recently, so I'm really excited to see this when it comes out on DVD!

Not yet. I'm looking forward to seeing it. I like the found footage genre and have recently enjoyed both Troll Hunter and Grave Encounters.

I recently reviewed GE with only minor spoilers that can probably be found in the synopsis anyway:

Tales from the Weapon X Lab

My recent review of Trollhunter:

Troll Hunter

As soon as I receive a review disc, I will review Atrocious too.

Atrocious was pretty good I enjoyed it.
Much better then some of the similar types of flicks out there.

GE was good too but I prefer Atrocious.
