Okay, so the whole “one take” style of movie making is becoming quite the gimmick. Rarely is it done to perfection and more often than not it really hinders the creative vision and harms the final product. If your going to use a gimmick like “one take” you have to nail it! I personally subscribe to the Haunting of Hill House or [Netflix Original] Extraction philosophy – which is if you have a crazy complicated badass 15-20 minute period that would be better served as a one-shot, that’s where you do it. This way you end up with an audience that never shuts up about the opening of Hill House Episode 5!
The other thing is, if you are going to commit to it then you can...

Emma has recently moved in with her cousin Taylor after her father’s untimely death. The victim of a prank by Taylor’s friends, Emma ups the ante by planning to scare the mysteriously reclusive girl who lives across the street. All they know is Julie’s alone and the house is rumoured haunted after a little boy vanished years ago. But what starts off as a simple plan becomes a nightmare of wrong choices with horrific results..
Filmed in long continuous takes, with only the odd cut (Not the one-take many are advertising it as), Let’s Scare Julie uses that particular gimmick to great effect – the handheld camera following around the girls without cutting away (most of the time) brings a great deal of claustrophobia to the proceedings.

When you're a teenager, life comes at you fast. Difficult social and moral choices sometimes have to be made in the blink of an eye, with little experience to ground them in and all sorts of peer pressure affecting your choices. Jud Cremata's feature début unspools as a single sequence - not quite one take, as there are brief cutaways to phones which probably cover for crew movements or difficulties in the edit - capturing this sense of urgency in what may be the last night of Emma's life.
Emma (Troy Leigh-Anne Johnson) lives with her little sister Lily (Dakota Baccelli) in a large suburban house. Across the street is a house with a sinister reputation. It's inhabited by the titular Julie, whom she knows very little about. In the absence of facts, fantasy flourishes. Julie's story has become tangled up with urban legends and ghost stories, just the sort of.

"What are you waiting for?!" Scream Factory has released a trailer for an indie horror thriller titled Let's Scare Julie (also known as Let's Scare Julie to Death), marking the feature directorial debut of filmmaker Jud Cremata. A group of teen girls set out to scare their reclusive neighbor, but the prank turns to terror when some of them don't return. Filmed in real time on a single camera in one uninterrupted, continuous take, the freaky tension rapidly escalates as the girls' seemingly harmless pranks start to have life-altering consequences. Starring Troy Leigh-Anne Johnson, Isabel May, Odessa A'zion, Brooke Sorenson, Jessica Sarah Flaum, and Dakota Baccelli. Not sure why this film needs the trendy neon-light masks, especially when there is enough style in the one-long-take concept anyway, but so be it. The scariest shot in this is the woman standing in the street, but the rest of it is pretty tame.
