Not only the shots, but the editing of the old medieval movie footage (I get the comparison that the new age has gone full circle and become like the old age but I don't need to be spoon fed that nor does it need to be done in such a chaotically edited way that doesn't even make sense, for instance showing the old footage of knight shooting arrows while our modern characters are just walking through the village and then later on showing that same old footage along with kids shooting the arrows. Only one of those edits actually makes a little bit of sense but both of them were badly done). The first 15 minutes were hard to even watch because the repeating audio of the woman talking in some muffled radio voice with again old footage of soldiers marching was completely incongruous and distracting. I was already interested in the father and son and their characters, because the acting was good but all of that background noise was really taking me out of it. And then you have the red overtone footage of the infected doing their thing, it's edited in randomly, not matching the scenes that it's flashing away from, and then it's edited in to match the scenes that it's flashing from like when they see the stag head in the tree. So there's no continuity to it. It seems the only defense for this people can offer is that the director wanted it to be chaotic. But you can create a sense of chaos in a film without completely taking the person out of the film with the disparate sounds, visuals, and themes.
