    Reception

    Haunted Poland has garnered negative reviews and the director/actor has been accused of "borrowing liberally from Paranormal Activity". In addition, the first teaser for the film holds a 90% negative bar rate on YouTube. The director released a statement on Dread Central to stop the negativity the trailer created "Haunted Poland was meant to be an 'experimental' project, says director Masó" and continues "This is not a Hollywood film with a budget of 20 million dollars. This film was completely shot on a consumer camera, with an estimate budget of 1000.00$." Additionally, the actor insisted later on, that the film was independent by making this statement "This movie is a no-budget and will be approximately 90 minutes".

    Awards and nominations

    On October 2011, Pau Masó's directorial debut Haunted Poland won "Best Movie/Documentary/Video/Script featuring Religiosus/Supernatural theme" on the American International Film Festival 2011.
