Just got done watching Grave Encounters and I think I like these found footage style movies, they can be a bit of a bore in the build up but usually end up being pretty fun to watch. Does anyone know of any other movies like this I might not have seen?
I'll list the ones I have seen:
Paranormal Activity
REC
Blair Witch
V/H/S 1 & 2
The Tunnel (this one was awesome.)
Grave Encounters
The Last Exorcism
Apollo 18
Cloverfield
What have you got for me, OnRPG?
Like 90% of the new movies suck ass.
Can't remember the last time i really downloaded a movie and enjoy it.
I just finished watching "Europa Report" just a few minutes ago. To be completely frank, I didn't really finish it, but rather it finished with me doing some other shit meanwhile, because it really isn't as fun as Apollo 18 was.
Also there is Moon which is good and goes into the direction because it's so focused on one dude, but it's not really within the found footage paradigm.
@OooRangee:
I know right? Even cloud atlas had such long moments of it being totally cliche..
When I find a good movie it's usually old. Movies nowadays are just loosing in comparison with TV series. It's not even because it's impossible to make great movies, they are just not being made.
Cloverfield
I always call these movies "documentary" style.
bah, forgot to add that to the list of films I've seen. That didn't really count as Horror in my mind haha.Quote:

The Poughkeepsie Tapes is really creepy. Think you'd dig that.
I love these kinds of movies and I find it weird that a majority of people complain about the "shaky cam."
aha, remember seeing gifs of this on 4chan, couldn't remember the name though. thanks for that.Quote:

now for the powkepiskykeepsyblabla tapes.
i didn't like any found footage movies. i stopped blair witch about 5 minute sin. I endured cloverfield painfully and dearly pray that the next one has a steadycam.
all that bouncing footage gives me a headache :-(
V/H/S actually scared me.
The only part of that which made me want to look away was the part in the motel when the guy is in bed and she... yeah I won't spoil it. But that did make me cringe a bit.Quote:
