>>70291640
Oh and Zero Day which is probably the most immersive found footage film.
>>
>>70291677

Just looked up a trailer for this and I'm not really grasping what it's about. I'm assuming two white boys decide to shoot up a place or something? Mind trying to give me a quick pitch for why I should watch it?
>>
Marble Hornets on youtube is the best. /tv/ never mentions it for some reason.
>>
>>70291627
One of the few times in my life that I've gotten high, my friend showed me this one. Scariest experience of my fucking life, I'm sure the movie's only a 7/10 at best but that scene (you know which one) was the scariest fucking thing I've ever seen.

>>70291913
I got the complete series blu-ray in the mail a few days ago. I've never seen past season 2 so I'm really excited.

Horror Found Footage I liked

Noroi: The Curse (although I thought it was way overrated)
V/H/S/ 1/2
Creep
Asylum Blackout
Frankensteins Monsters had like 12 good minutes and the rest was hot horseshit
Chernobyl Diaries I actually really enjoy

Found footage movies I want to know if I should watch:

Lake Mungo
WIllow Creek
The Pyramid (or whatever)
>>
>>70292083
If you liked Chernobyl then you'll like The Pyramid.

I also loved the Conspiracy.

I need to keep reminding /ffg/ that it exists.

It's literally /tv/: the found footage film.

>Be My Cat: A Film for Anne is a 2015 English-language Romanian found footage horror movie directed, produced and written by Adrian Čšofei, about a young man going to shocking extremes to convince Hollywood actress Anne Hathaway to play in his film.

>>70292083
>Lake Mungo

One decent jump scare and that's it. Not worth watching unless you're really bored.

>Willow Creek

Interesting from a filmmaking standpoint. Almost a shot for shot remake of Blair Witch, but better made than the Blair Witch. Not so great if you just want a comfy spooky movie.

>They Pyramid

terrible.
>>
>this whole thread
>nobody mentioned Borderland

Weird. It's the best found footage movie.

Also somebody mentioned Noroi. A couple of other interesting J-horror found footage films- The Occult, Shirome, and P.O.V. They have pretty big flaws, but they're still worth watching.
>>
what next film would you like to see in found footage? I really don't want VR to be the next step.
>>
My favourites (that I can remember):
Lake Mungo (more faux-documentary)
The Blair Witch Project
Creep
Chronicle
REC
Willow Creek
End of Watch


>>70292874
I'm hesitant to watch the trailer because I don't want spoilers but I'm really intrigued.
>>
>>70293514

Yea that movie is great.

I've had Shudder for about a year so I've run through most good looking films there (this being one of them)

holy shit niche taste
I think I saw this one from Cinemassacre
>>
>>70294457
it's about a VHS someone found of a local TV station's Halloween night broadcast that was never aired again, first with the news showing hokey segments about local ghost stories etc then with a special where a reporter goes into a supposedly haunted house with psychics to film the experience live but then mysterious things start happening in the house.

Is it real though? no but it is very entertaining, starts off somewhat comedic with fake commercials that do a great job emulating ones of the era but then the creepiness builds and builds until the end

Seriously, especially since it's such a prevalent (and enjoyable) horror/slasher trope.

Who is /hype/ as fuck for this?

>1967: the height of the Cold War. The CIA suspects there is a Russian mole inside of NASA, sabotaging the Apollo program. They send two young agents on a mission to go undercover, posing as documentary filmmakers to capture NASA’s race to the moon. The real mission – use their access and technology to hunt down the leak. But what they discover is far more shocking than soviet spies… Their government may be hiding a secret about Apollo that could define the decade, and the White House will stop at nothing to silence anyone who learns it.

Backstory is tough on found footage. Mostly people just finding clues and reading stuff. It was a good found footage movie. Gave you more than enough to enjoy it and let your mind do the rest of the world building.
