#JERUZALEM MOVIE PLOT MOVIE#
JeruZalem is a fun action movie and the Smart Glass (a Google-Glass knockoff that records, zooms, photographs, navigates, etc.) premise is smooth way to incorporate a found-footage or first-hand feel to what is happening around Sarah. No atonement is enough and dark spirits arise to walk the streets of Jerusalem and prey on those living in and visiting the city – including Rachel and Sarah. Jeremiah ben Elazar said again, 'Hell has three gates: One in the desert, one in the sea, and one in Jerusalem' as it is written " ( found here), The Paz Brothers create a tale of Judgement Day arriving with a vengeance. Using a verse from Jeremiah 19 in the Talmud, "R. Unfortunately, on this most holy night of the year, a gate has opened under the city. On the plane they meet Kevin (Yon Tumarkin), who convinces them to go to Jerusalem first to be there for Yom Kippur. So Rachel (Danielle Jadelyn) plans a trip to Tel Aviv and Jerusalem, a whirlwind adventure to help get Sarah (Yael Grobglas) out of her rut. It certainly worked for me.Sarah's brother has been dead for a year but she can't move on. If you’re into the found footage aesthetic, 20-somethings living it up before having their fun taken away, and demonic horror, this could be for you. It is still entertaining and that’s all that matters. It isn’t prefect by any stretch of the imagination, but nothing is. Watching the characters make the most of their vacation only to have it cut short when all hell breaks loose made for a good hour and a half. I’m not going to go into detail about that because it would ruin the latter half of the movie, but let’s say that there were demonic creatures that showed up.
Something is going to happen with that gate to hell.
One in the desert, one in the ocean, and one in Jerusalem.” You know right off the bat that religion is going to play a part in the movie. The movie begins with the text “…there are three gates to hell. Religion plays a large part in the movie. It would be a disservice if I did not mention that there are religious aspects to JeruZalem. Either way, it made digesting it on a pure entertainment level easier for general audiences. Speaking English could have been for a monetary reason. A movie with English speaking characters will get a bigger North American audience than a foreign movie with English subtitles or dubbing. There was no reason to make the main characters American other than to have people speaking English. The flip side is that they might have simply wanted an audience. The filmmakers could have wanted American audiences to watch the movie and appreciate their love for found footage. This might fit into the love letter aspect. The actors spoke English for the majority of the movie. One interesting aspect is that, though an Israeli film, JeruZalem was presented in English. It made JeruZalem feel like an Israeli love letter to found footage. They were still entertaining, shocking, and thrilling. It didn’t hurt the movie to recognize these moments. This was a compilation of found footage beats that audiences know and love. There were moments scattered throughout the movie that felt like they were lifted from other movies. Technology helped tell the story.Īlthough the story was a solid tale, JeruZalem was soaked in what has already come before in horror. It was a quick, easy way to give character profiles through social networking sites, show videos without needing everyone to sit around a computer, and have interactions with characters who were not present. However, this time we got to see user interface details that made for a better experience. There have been instances in other films where characters wear glasses with cameras. Instead of being a simple handheld camera, the movie spiced things up by filming through a pair of Google Glasses. There was more effort put into JeruZalem than many other movies of this type. Most people would write JeruZalem off as another in a long line of found footage movies trying to ride the waves of this style.
While in the holiest of cities, demonic things began happening and the girls, along with their new friends, attempt to escape. The movie followed two young women from New Jersey as they travelled to Tel Aviv for vacation, only to be persuaded to go to Jerusalem instead. One of the more interesting ways was presented in JeruZalem, an Israeli horror film that got a limited American theatrical release in 2016. Different technological innovations have allowed different ways to capture point-of-view camerawork. That form of cinematography has grown old.
People aren’t interested in seeing the standard “person holding a camera” movies popularized by The Blair Witch Project. With the film market being oversaturated with found footage and point-of-view horror movies, some sort of twist is becoming necessary in order to find an audience. When a couple of American young adults fly to Israel to visit the city of Jerusalem, a biblical nightmare falls upon the city
