TLDR: The Jester entity itself is played very well, given great effects and ideas, it deserves a big budget! The rest of the movie? B.a.d
Would I watch this again? No, not in general because time is precious, but the entity was very engaging!
Would I recommend it? Surprisingly, yes! BUT--BUT you must go into it accepting the movie is bad. I only recommend it for the performance of the Jester, literally nothing else. He is worth seeing, it could be a movie to watch when drunk with friends, not to be taken seriously, only to admire the Jester's character.
Will you miss anything by skipping this movie? Not really.
The actors were terrible, I'm sorry. I'm sure they tried, but it was bad, especially 'Jocelyn'. The other sister was only marginally better, most of the other side characters were bad too, just overall bad acting. When combined with weird camera angles and shots and poor dialogue, it was mostly a cringe fest, saved only by the villain.
There are questions left, like what the hell is the Jester, how did this start, what does it want, but I suppose backstories are for bigger budgets. This is a film where it feels like all the budget was poured into making the creature good, and it was! It just left the rest of the movie scraping by poorly. Unfortunate but understandable.

No, it's not revolutionary or even 'good', but it IS okay if found footage is your thing and you've run out. The premise is actually interesting, it would make a good big budget movie/or a series! (maybe there is already one, maybe I've missed it?)
But would I watch this again? No.
Would I recommend it? For one viewing yes, if this type of movie is your thing.
Will you miss anything by skipping this movie? Not really, but again, interesting premise!
I feel like the actors did fine with what they had. The face time filming thing wasn't terribly done for what it was, it can usually be worse! It was cleanly made and not a nightmare to get through. I actually cared about the main character.
So over all, not too bad, but I don't think I'd have the free time to spend rewatching this in the face of other films.
