If you're interested in ghosts or the paranormal, this flick is a serious treat!
We've all watched ghost hunting "reality" shows on TV, and going into this documentary, I was wondering what could they possibly show I haven't seen. Well, as it turns out, PLENTY.
Most ghost hunting programs - and films, for that matter - are so determined to frighten that they spend alot of time flash-cutting, trumping up fakey "results", and building heavy, overbearing "spooky" sound design. By contrast, INVESTIGATING THE AFTERLIFE shows what the experience of ghost hunting is really like - the patience required, the psychology, and ultimately, the terror. Instead of "trying" so hard to be scary, INVESTIGATING THE AFTERLIFE actually is. The process of paranormal investigation is played out, and as a result is WAY more intense and gripping than the editorially manufactured stuff you've seen on TV.
Amateur ghost-hunter Shane Free dares to do something so many of us have thought about doing, and by documenting his efforts in an unsensationalized and honest manner, puts us RIGHT THERE with him! This is a seriously spooky treat and an absolute must-see for fans of ghost-hunting, the paranormal, or anyone just wanting to watch an usually creepy movie!
