What is your favorite found footage film of all time, /tv/?
What found footage films are you looking forward to?
>>69234584
Blair Witch is one of my favorite movies of all time actually
havent seen a found footage movie I have liked since.
>>69234740
you need to see more of them. people like more than just blair witch.
>>69234876
I have seen plenty, bud. Recommend some that you consider great.
>>69234910
Have you seen The Borderlands?
What the fuck happened to the sequels?
>>69234939
was that the one where they were investigating some Church that somehow turned into a batshit maze? If its that one then it was alright.
>>69234957
The sequels had their good points, I liked the Magician one in the VHS 3, and the Zombie and spoopy Alien ones in 2,
are they making a 4th one?
What's the best found footage film on Netflix right now?
Grave Encounters is my second favorite found footagefirst being Cloverfield, too bad the ruined it with sequel.
>>69234957
The second one was the best
>>69234957
the cult segment in 2 was solid, otherwise everything in the sequels was p bad
reminder that poughkeepsie tapes is complete garbage
also reminder that op has severe autism and used to make this thread near-constantly despite literally nobody caring
>>69235031
Nobody cares about Shitflix. We torrent.
Creep was fantastic! Easily one of my top found footage movies
>>69234584
Noroi: The Curse is an alright watch.
>>69234957
fuck you I liked VHS Viral.
The extended segment is good
>>69236382
Sorry but you are in the minority there.
Do people legitimately like Grave Encounters?
I thought it was rotten shit, and the sequel was even worse
>>69234957
>that horrible wraparound story in viral
at least it was unintrusive in 1 and 2
>>69236646
It wasn't bad
>>69236646
It's in that bad, but still enjoyable category for me.
REC was the only legit good one I saw.
>>69234584
>night vision shot of dark room
>human figure or child sitting in corner with back turned
>turns head, spooky face
when will this cliche end? jump scare horror is cancer. they keep making them because new generations of young people keep seeing them. movies like that are literally "BOO" stretched out into a movie. it's horror for 5 year olds.
Literally /tv/: the found footage movie
>Be My Cat: A Film for Anne is a 2015 English-language Romanian found footage horror movie directed, produced and written by Adrian Țofei, about a young man going to shocking extremes to convince Hollywood actress Anne Hathaway to play in his film
https://vimeo.com/117598537
And it's actually supposed to be good.
>>69236382
VHS viral might be the worst movie I have ever seen. I'm not even exaggerating. That movie was so fucking insulting, stupid and pointless. Fuck that movie
>>69240256
There's far worse out there.
>>69238109
I loved that
>>69238766
wtf is this shit
>>69238109
same
>>69234584
Found footage films are mostly a Cancer on horror movies desu
Anyone seen Monsters? It's not exactly spooky but it's probably the prettiest found footage movie iv ever seen
>>69236646
I laughed out loud throughout most of the movie, especially after the girl in the corner.
The effects were so bad.
That stock sound dinosaur roar I've heard since cartoons in the 80s...
lake mungo is surprisingly decent
>>69243325
horror movies are mostly a cancer on horror movies. the entire genre is 72% garbage.
>>69243499
lake mungo is found footage done right. good acting, believable context for the 'footage', and constantly unnerving atmosphere. it's the first horror movie that actually gave me trouble sleeping
>>69243499
>>69244290
Finally, smart people who appreciate Lake Mungo. I can't believe some people think it's bad because of the lack of jumpscares.
>>69238766
>Be My Cat: A Film for Anne
holy shit that trailer
I liked it
>>69245400
>>69245400
>the lack of jumpscares.
and that's half the reason it works so well. it maintains a steadily rising sense of unease with intermittent creepy shit. all the way through to the end of the credits.
>>69234584
>Blair Witch
>REC
>Monsters
>VHS
VHS was so so, but I add it to the list for the weird succubus'ish short.
Blair Witch though was amazing. I saw it when it came out, but before they dropped the hype campaign. BW is easily the best marketing campaign for a movie I've ever seen and heard.
I thought Unfriended was one of the most retarded movies I'd ever seen until I read that they essentially did the entire move as a long take, with everyone being in the same house.
>>69245991
I actually thought Unfriended ended up being much better than I expected.
>>69236646
The sequel surprised me in a good way with its fantasy elements. And when the guy gets his camera back and starts trying to do his show. Lots of shit but some moments were solid
>>69234584
Bump
>>69235043
I don't think they ruined it, just wasted the potential, it was still decent for what it was.
>>69238766
I can't wait for this.
>>69246019
Unfriended was an excellent use of the computers etc, the story was too simple though.
Glad to see there's another one up. I have so much watching to do and discuss.
>>69243331
I have, I don't remember it being all that compelling, but it had some really nice scenery.
>>69238766
>https://vimeo.com/117598537
HOLY FUCK
Just remembered something sort of interesting. It's called Final Flesh and the idea behind it was writing into custom porn companies and requesting the most inane things possible, meant to be more comedy than horror, but I imagine some comes off intensely creepy. Should be able to find a torrent somewhere.
>>69247532
sounds stupid
>>69248401
I can't imagine there's much to be gained from it, but at least it's different.
There was a short film on youtube a few years ago about a group of guys driving a car at night. At some point they notice that when they drive further down the road in a certain direction, they are sent back to the beginning of the road.
Does anyone know the name of that movie?
>>69248464
No Through Road.
>>69246865
i know right?
<--- Found footage kino
>>69250933
I'm gonna try and watch this soon.
>>69238766

Im working on a found footage film. It's about the salem witch trials.
>>69253217

Ran out of brownies.

I am addicted to these. Wish I could get all of the good ones and watch them back to back.

I wonder if the thumbnail had something to do with that
Probably been asked a lot, but is there any stuff similar to marble hornets? Disjointed and clearly amateur work
>>69258253
Yeah I thought that was funny considering hardly anyone even knows about this movie
>>69245400
>>69244290
>>69243499
>>69245921
sounds neat, yall convinced me to dl it
also no quarantine yet?
i fucking love that movie. theres a few things that happen in the background that absolutely make the movie for me.
>>69245400
>implying you have to be smart to enjoy that piece of shit
m8, i like slow burning horror films, but this film was shit
>>69259024
one of few remakes that is better than the original
>>69259571
quarantine was worse than the original
>>69259571
Lake Mungo is awful. People only pretend to like it because of that meme scene.
>>69262463
Lake Mungo is basically a litmus test for intelligence. Only idiots hate it.
>>69262583
>says the retard
>>69262870
>hurr durr Lake munger isn't gud cuz thurs nuh jump scurz! I luv jump scurz!!!!!!
I marathoned the first 10 minutes of Diary of the Dead and it seemed pretty good.
Ya'll niggas seen noroi: The Curse? It's probably my favorite Found Footage movie, and i've seen a lot.
>>69234957
I thought VHS 2 was far superior to the first film.
Viral though, was shocking. I couldn't believe how much they fucked up.
>>69263397
This. V/H/S 1 is a solid flick but the stories are very twist heavy and while effective, only really work once. Tuesday the 17th is the only bad one (because its just a worse slenderman) but on the whole it's a flick you watch once, maybe twice.
2 however is just fantastic. Safe Haven is by far the best short in the series and could easily be adapted into a fuller story. Slumber Party Alien Abduction was deceptively spooky despite it's title and Clinical Trials is interesting and engaging. Walk In The park is the only bad one and even then it's a good idea that just comes out boring.
Viral is trash. Parallel Monsters is the only interesting one and even then it's very obvious hat the twist will be and only works because it has that weird sex thing going on. The other two are too comical to be scary or tense and while that would be fine for one of them, it's half of the film not even trying to be scary.
who here followed this shit till the end?
>>69263783
Marble Hornets was pretty good. It was breaking new ground for the youtube horror community and while it ended up abandoning it's monster for a crazy guy and ruining it's narrative in the process, it still has a lot of good spooks.
dis jawn iz da bess
>>69263131
>I marathoned the first 10 minutes
You're retarded.
>>69263850
I remember getting into the series in the early 2010s but I never kept up with it. Basically everything I've heard about the movie about it has been bad.
>>69264081
the movie is fucking awful, but it has no connection to the series other than the name. Like, i don't think anyone who made the series was involved in the movie.
The Borderlands confirmed from best found footage film since TBWP.
As voted fro by me
Roger Ebert
That black fag
and your mum
>>69234584
the dirties is the best found footage movie ever made. Pure kino. Debate me.
Still the best found footage kino.
>>69264581
But Noroi The Curse exists
>>69264799
Just watched this some hours ago, pretty good
>>69264799
tfw norwegian and seeing the movie bizz pick up norwegians left and right, also for using our word for cinema.
>>69264799
too much CGI for found footage
>>69263936
Would have been more interesting if you could actually see shit underground
Should I get really drunk and watch Grave Encounters? Those kind of movies scare the fuck out of when sober, but when I'm drunk as a skunk they are actually enjoyable and I'm not scared.
>>69266273
It had CGI? I didn't notice.
Literally not only the best found footage movie but also the spookiest movie in the past 10 years.
Prove me wrong
>inb4 some edgelord says it didn't freak him out without giving an example of a creepier movie
>>69267472
I absolutely cannot stand australian accents. It is the most annoying thing.
>>69267472
I thought it was more depressing than spooky but it was pretty atmospheric at times
>>69268296
Niiiiice
>>69267472
>Literally not only the best found footage movie
stopped reading there
>let good found footage thread die
>keep bumping this shit that nobody wants
Kill yourself, samefag.
Honestly if any of you think there is a FF better than TBWP you are a plebeian child. It's the staple of the genre and there has not been a better film since. Others have come close, but it's still in a league of its own.
>>69272626

People Arguing In The Forest: The Movie
>>69272814
you're an idiot
>>69238109
Seriously, [rec] was amazing (and its sequel is nearly as good).
>>69234957
The first and second were great. The third was an absolute disaster, one of the worst movies of all times.
>>69234957
Idk man. I cheated on my girlfriend to Viral. I don't know what's the most regretable thing about that.
The Unidentified.
When they were making that bomb and the girl wanted to come in, my god I've never been so spooked/thrilled/sweaty because of a movieI thought that my heart is going to pop out of my chest.
>>69264581
this is great so far. the dialogue and acting is great
dance, monkey
>>69272814
>People Arguing In The Forest: The Movie
tru dat
>>69272626
i wanted to like blair witch but it just wasn't realistic enough, it's hard to imagine people being that unprepared and losing their cool so quickly
Is grave encounters any good?
>>69274852
are you not aware there were supernatural forces fucking with them?
>>69274852
>it's hard to imagine people being that unprepared and losing their cool so quickly
It's even worse with today's college kids
>>69275265
i think that's left open to interpretation
>go back to this thread 16 hours later
>not a single (You)
>>69277191
stay out, memer
>>69274852
>losing their cool so quickly
they're literally lost in the woods alone for days. DAYS.
And every night some nonsense is fucking with them worse and worse and worse
The Tunnel is fucking great
>have Noroi on my harddrive to watch
>it's been there for like 5 months
>actually a little afraid to watch it
>>69277748
Watch Occult as well. Same director.
>>69275763
how did you come to that conclusion? i thought it was fairly obvious supernatural forces were at work
>>69275228
Its probably the only found footage movie to do justice after TBWP and REC imo.
>>69273158
This whole thing is on youtube. I don't know does this pass as found footage, partly so anyway. I think the director is same as with Noroi.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWNfzcbsFc0
>>69280620
Holy shit, just realized that its real name is Occult. Oh..
>>69235725
I liked it too, comfy as fuck even tho not that scary.
More people should see it.
thoughts on The Gallows? I liked the beginning (the play going wrong) and the ending/twist but everything else felt pretty standard. I also find it weird that "Charlie" was advertised as the next slasher icon when he was in maybe 2 shots physically.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pOhBFz80-Ek
Yo, this is pretty weird
fuckin dumb bitch the only one to crumble under thr presure id hate fuck her into oblivion
This looks pretty good
>>69281484
Literal garbage, 2/10. When big studios do their laziest hack job and just put something this horrible because people will eat it up anyways
>>69277748

You'll get it later.
So my best friend is a pussy when it comes to scary movies. He literally refuses to watch any scary movie and really doesn't like to even talk about them. He said that the scariest looking and scariest sounding movie he can think of in the whole world is The Blair Witch Project.
I tried telling him it's more unsettling and creepy than scary, and that I managed to watch it when I was 13 and loved it. What can I tell him to convince him to watch it? I want to see it with him because I love the idea of scary movies actually scaring people - I've seen so many I've become kind of jaded, so it's a neat idea to share a scary movie with a friend who it would actually effect. It's like watching a comedy with someone who actually laughs.
>>69282563
Try rape or blackmail or money
>>69234584
I'm friends with Colin Minihan, the guy who directed Grave Encounters. The film is shit, but the hospital it was filmed at is legit fucking terrifying.
>>69282655
But it isn't shit
>>69235031
Area 51 is on it. So is devils pass
>>69282563
honestly, it's the scariest movie I've seen so far. I only recently started watching a lot though.
I watched it alone in my room at 2 am with headphones on and the lights off. ACTUALLY a scary fucking movie
>think it's a thread dedicated to moves which were thought to have been lost
>it's a shitty horror genre
>>69283102
And that's the best they have? lmao
>>69283172
You should know better
>>69272626
Lake Mungo is better.
>>69283251
Yes. It's an overused term here, but serves a purpose: Lake Mungo is one of the very few kinos in FF and the horror genre in the last couple of decades.
It's still very underrated. It's a fantastic mix of drama/documentary/horror that makes it so essential and good.
The Poughkeepsie tapes
Saw it a year ago. Still think about it from time to time.
>>69283102
Area 51 was pretty bad honestly.
>>69250933
Absolute garbage.
Any non-horror found footage?
I just watched the OccultI wished the movie ended after he got the equipment back, the last sequence ruined everything, it was hilarious tho
>>69283251
either a faggot or an Australian
probably both
Dear Anon who recommended me this movie in the last horror thread:
It was solid. The mystery and the cast was better than the conclusion and the last twist, but I am not sorry I watched this movie.
If you're reading this, you my nigga.
>>69264799
This was a fucking weird one to me.
But who knew that Norwegians of all people could produce kino?
>>69284201
Such a typical muh """spooky""" unexplained found footage ending. Devil's pass was OK simply for the scenery, but the whole conspiracy with the ship brought it from a 6/10 to a 5/10. FF writers are so immature, like kids at a camp-fire telling stories.
topfoundfootagefilms(.)com
This site is pretty OK for finding new FF flicks and what I use most of the time.
>>69290066
I didn't mind the boat.
The movie went from a 7 to a 6 for me when they introduced themonsters. And it fell another point wen theteleportation portalcame into the picture.
>>69263936
Not even Ray Wise could save this pile of shit.
>>69282563
You can't really break someone who's hellbent on not partaking in horror, I find.
I tried over several years to get my ex to watch horror movies with me, and it just didn't happen.
Welcome to the Jungle was a pretty legit found footage film.
>>69267472
I'm an Ausfag and I liked it, it really captured the feel of suburbia here well.
The scene whereshe finds her future dead selfstayed with me for quite a while.
Fuck yeah this thread has me getting pumped for more found footage. Keep this up, motherfuckers.

I liked the first two VHS movies but I haven't seen Viral yet. Everyone tells me it's superbly bad. Can someone explain what makes it like that? I find it hard t believe that they could have fucked up something like this on such a scale.
>>69297518
It's just bad. Don't watch it. Move on.

>inb4 hurrr you just wanted jumpscares
I'm perfectly fucking fine with a slow burning horror movie but holy shit Lake Mungo was trash.
>>69292013
That' probably because that's the only memorable part of the entire movie.
