Adheres strictly to ghost story clichés.

Poorly written and performed, the limited locations felt more like a production limitation than being anything at all inspired.

Rated: 2/5

Emergo is a refreshingly smart and well-controlled film, with its found footage technique being used to enhance the story, rather than being its crutch.

One of the more disposable found-footage efforts as of late...

Rated: 1/4

The MPAA rating more than sums up the movie: Rated "R" for language and some terror. Not enough terror in my book.

Rated: D

Trying to overthink a ghost story, Apartment 143 goes from appealing to ridiculous in a hurry, saved slightly by a handful of good frights.

Rated: C-

I didn't expect much from this movie but I ended up having fun and getting some great suspense out of it and some great storytelling as well. The explanations for why things were happening were different and I loved the hypothesis that was explained in the story. There were things like the dialogue, some cheap moments, and I felt the lack of setting as almost all the scenes take place in this apartment, was a downside but there is an amazing monologue from Kai Lennox and it's definitely a movie I can see being a cult classic so with all that being said, this movie gets a B-.

Rated 3 out of 5 stars

Ever since The Blair Witch Project, the horror genre' has been inundated with low budget, wobbly, hand-held cam movies. This started off as one of them... The acting wasn't bad, and it picked up in the last 20 minutes very well. The dad put on a good show when he unwound completely. The photography, at times, was well done, outside of the high ceiling shots and shaky, screechy scenes. They should get at least 3 1/2 stars for effort.

I saw the trailer for this movie in ITunes and finally I got to saw it , it was a really good movie it has good horror and some very disturbing scenes and the best part of it is that it was rated R. The story of them is creepy and at the same time is sad. I think they did a great job in this movie and it did not disappoint me at all. So of this people don't appreciate found footage films because they don't get what they are expecting, that being said this films are creepy and are well made and this film is great example, so for this being one great film, I give " Apartment 143 " a B-.

A movie that relies too heavily on creepy noises, Apartment 143 fails to deliver any real frights within its relatively unimaginative plot.

This very low budget film is completely ridiculous, very slow paced and boring. Also, the plot was very unconvincing due to the disappointing acting portrayed by the male lead.

It is a good movie, a little boring in the beginning, but overall not a bad movie.
