Is It Worth Watching?
The Taking of Deborah Logan is worth watching if you enjoy horror films that blend supernatural elements with real-world fears. Jill Larson’s performance and the film’s exploration of Alzheimer’s as a source of horror make it stand out a bit from your typical found footage movies. But, if you’re looking for a horror film that maintains subtlety and avoids clichés, you might find the final act disappointing.

Final rating:★★ - Had some things that appeal to me, but a poor finished product.

The buildup for this is really good, and the premise is intriguing, but it loses some of its internal consistency and starts introducing brand new elements in the eleventh hour, which makes a lot of the buildup seem to be a waste of everyone's time. They could have gone in a different direction to give the buildup some weight, but the pivots into bodyhorror in the last few minutes is great for the trailers, even if it mars the overall impression.
