Haunted Poland (Шаблон:Lang-pl) is a 2011 horror film in the found footage genre, pieced together from amateur footage. The film was produced by Maso & Co Productions. Told cinéma vérité-style, Haunted Poland depicts the contents of recorded tape filmed by a couple Ewelyn (Ewelina Lukaszewska), and Pau (Pau Masó) who visited Poland to meet and visit family. However, our duo soon find themselves disturbed by all manner of strange phenomena upon visiting the girl's hometown where she once played with a ouija board.[1] The film premiered at the AIFF on November 20, 2011.

A sequel, Haunted Poland: The Origins (Шаблон:Lang-pl), has been announced.[2]

Plot

In 2011, a couple living in America, Ewelina and Pau, travel to Chodecz, Poland to meet the girl's family. As the film goes by, strange phenomena occurs, but her reluctant "non-believing" boyfriend, just pokes fun at her instead of supporting her, while she is actually having a hard time.

Reception

Haunted Poland has garnered negative reviews and the director/actor has been accused of "borrowing liberally from Paranormal Activity".[4] In addition, the first teaser for the film holds a 90% negative bar rate on YouTube.[5] The director released a statement on Dread Central to stop the negativity the trailer created "Haunted Poland was meant to be an 'experimental' project, says director Masó" and continues "This is not a Hollywood film with a budget of 20 million dollars. This film was completely shot on a consumer camera, with an estimate budget of 1000.00$."[6] Additionally, the actor insisted later on, that the film was independent by making this statement "This movie is a no-budget and will be approximately 90 minutes".[7]
