Now everyone that watches it for the first time goes into it expecting it to suck. I believe that if it would have had a quiet release as an indie film, it would be considered a decent film, comparable to a lot of slightly-above-average found footage films life The Tunnel or Apartment 143.

Having said that, I'm not going to vote for it since I haven't seen either of the other two, and don't think it's so good that it deserves a blind vote.
It's more that it completely cheats the audience out of an actual ending, and it's just a big marketing ploy. Had the movie just ended with the crash, then the movie would have been just a normal level of bad, but the link made it so much worse.
