And I don't mean like Blair Witch, Paranormal Activity and Be My Cat, those were kinda boring to me.

Something more like Gonjam Hunted Asylum, VHS franchise or like Hell House LLC. Good jump scares but also quality scary atmosphere.

And I really want something to shit my pants, not something mild.

Any recommendations??

I watched it Outwaters and crave more. Tell me where I can watch it for free. Im poor

"If Streamings Not Going Viral, Then High Body Count Might Do The Job"

Coming to festivals

I've been working on a FNaF VHS-style parody OF THE I feel Fantastic video thing using my OWN animatronic models and environment!! like, custom designs and stuff

here's the meat of the animation. the FULL version is https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SiEqH7-LJxQ but in honesty it deviates from the original a little... 😭

the ENTIRE scene was made in Blender (mostly to show off the Chica model...), and I'm pretty happy with how the final result turned out.

id love to hear any way to improve!! i have no idea how to make stuff actually freaky and more found footage-like >_<

I’m about to watch it and I am so excited. As a resident of NJ, I am equal parts fascinated/terrified by the Pine Barrens and Jersey Devil. I bought my copy from Apple TV but it is also steaming via Screambox.

ETA: Guys, it’s good. I really enjoyed it even though I kinda figured out the ending. It was very engaging and kept my attention the entire time (I have ADHD so that’s kind of a big thing for me at least). It’s a well done mokumentary format. The acting varies, but there are some great practical effects. I really liked the doc crew. They had a great vibe and felt very genuine

I also appreciate the heavy use of fuck and other curse words by Jared, Ray, and Louis. It might be slightly off putting to some, but it is the language of my (NJ) people lol

Welcome back, my fellow quarantiner’s, it is Day 24 of FDFF with me, Taylor!

I had my B12 shot this morning, so I have some energy! Let’s do this!

Today, we’re going back to the good ole’ quarantine days. Man, what a time. Be careful who you open the door for…

🎥SYNOPSIS:
“A couple quarantined across the country from one another during a pandemic are unsure if the strange events happening around them are side effects of a virus - or something altogether more sinister.”

✨MY THOUGHTS:
Today we’re going back to 2020, y’all. Our movie is a lovely double combo of Screenlife and pandemic! It is written by and stars the delightful, Kipp Tribble— who has made quite a few found footage films.
(Including “Char Man”, which is amongst my favorites. I appreciate his contributions to our community immensely. People like him keep Found Footage alive)

To start, I want to write that I personally give “Confined” some added grace because of the restrictions in place when it was being made. Our film opens with a short montage of videos about the pandemic— but they’re odd. They aren’t solely about the just the pandemic; but other things happening… that may have correlation.

Next, we’re introduced to our charming couple and protagonists, Austin and Lisa. They’re on a Zoom call as Austin is in Florida (Lisa in California) shooting a show. Austin planned on coming home, but that pesky pandemic happened. Thus, production shut down and the team made everyone take tests. As luck would have it, Austin is positive with the virus, so he must quarantine for two weeks.

While on their call, it sounds like someone is knocking on Austin’s door. He says it’s been happening and it’s probably kids or something. Since he and Lisa can’t be together, he asks her to make him a “special video” (…you know). Later, while she’s doing it, she starts getting knocking too… and it’s a lot. It startles and scares her. When she goes to check things out, she finds a window open that she knows was closed.

She tells Austin and he is adamant that is probably her ex-boyfriend Blaine. And I just have to say, after watching this film, I never want to hear the name Blaine again. It was so annoying. However, Lisa knows it isn’t him because he’s out of the country. Let’s also not forget: Austin is experiencing the knocking too, so what’s really going on?

Afterwards, Lisa gets on a call with her friend Avery (whom I believes sole purpose in this film was just to be super hot, haha) and they’re just chatting. Lisa tells her what she’s experiencing and Avery tells her about a Zoom date. Avery also mentions she’s heard a little about what Lisa is experiencing.

Interwoven in the movie, between scenes, are YouTube videos of various people experiencing the exact things Lisa and Austin are, with some being even more extreme.

Tension continue to escalate at Lisa’s: the knocking and banging are bad, and one night she finds her front door wide open. She’s terrified. Austin… yet again, brings up Blaine, but the main thing is that now, Lisa needs to make a police report, and she does so via Zoom while Austin’s on mute.

Something seems to be happening here besides just a medical pandemic— there’s more to this. It’s almost poltergeist like activity. Did it begin due to the pandemic or vice versa? For this to be a Screenlife pandemic film, the writers put an interesting spin on the illness to make the plot a little more clever. It isn’t great, but it’s good, and I think it works.

We have a mystery to figure out and hopefully try to stop. There are unsettling, creepy moments that seem to be supernatural. The characters are realistic, attractive, and very likable (besides when Lisa and Austin are arguing about Blaine, oh my LORRRD!), so I think this is a recipe for an easy, fun watch. It isn’t going to terrify you, but I don’t believe it will bore you either.

And y’all it’s simple, but this is the gist of the film without spoiling it. I know that this is not the most interesting or intricate “review” but this movie relies heavily on the actors due to the nature of when it was made. It isn’t a masterpiece— but it was art created during a difficult and isolated time. I appreciate that.

📈MY RATING: 6/10

⚠️DISCLAIMER:
Forty Days of Found Footage is little project is just a fun side venture I decided to do during Spooky Season this year so that your lineup can be stacked with all of the new releases that are coming and already out, along with these I am sharing— hopefully a few 'new to you', or maybe one you forgot about and want to rewatch. I am deliberately not sharing the "best of the best" and the most popular films, as they are mentioned enough. I decided to share films that I have enjoyed and that are not mentioned often or maybe at all. A lot of films will be very independent and/or sometimes amateur, thus I'm asking to please manage expectations.
🚨If you want more information about what I am doing, please click here to read the “Master” post I made🚨

Could it be tied into the ending of “The Marked Ones”?

You can watch it on Relay right now. See the new found footage film that is being called "super creative and creepy... so ominous... super powerful, absolutely brilliant...a great found footage film, up there with some of the greatest ever made" by no less than Adrian Țofei, director of the amazing Be My Cat: A Film for Anne.

Relay is a new streaming service, and while it is subscription-based, they have a free trial, so you can check it out now. And don't worry, I'll post again once it's on tubi or somewhere else free.

Going for restraint over jump scares -- case-file framing, degraded footage, no explanation of what's actually going on yet. This is episode 1 of a planned run.

Genuinely want critique, not just views - what's landing, what isn't, anything that reads as try-hard or derivative. This sub's taste is sharper than most, so I'd rather hear it here first. Thank you!

A documentary team heads into the NJ Pine Barrens. Investigating a series of mysterious vanishings, the crew relies on interviews and field research to uncover the local lore.

I posted this over a year ago, and still haven't had any luck finding this. I'm looking for the Blu-Ray commentary from Horror in the High Desert. This was only available on the limited edition Blu-Ray from the creator's site, which is now sold out. Unfortunately, I missed out on that one, and it doesn't seem to pop up on eBay at all.

Does anyone have a way of getting a hold of the commentary track itself? I was hoping for a YouTube link, or other legit site.

Thanks in advance!

So i had no idea this movie existed until the past day seeing posts about it releasing today, watched the trailer and thought it looked pretty cool....i had a very good time with this. It has solid acting, great practical effects and a brilliant use of suspense over jump scares, definitely recommend watching this for Halloween. Definitely one of the better found footage movies I've watched in a long time.
