What makes it different from others?

It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

The images are interesting enough, probably more so to those not familiar with cinema history. The sequences show examples of trick effects, shots from the first horror films, depiction of communication (flicking dates, etc). However the images are accompanied by irrelevant and intrusive electronic noise and the film is more readily appreciated once the noise is turned off (not easy to do in the cinema).

Austrian director Gustav Deutsch is again working with found footage in this sequel to his 1998 "Film ist.1-6". Both works succeed in constructing a visual history of cinematography by re-sampling common film-motives. Deutsch's works are not only meticulously assembled (using different European film-archives as resources) and structured, but also show a lot of humor in the way they are edited.
