It’s rainin’ frogs, hallelujah it’s rainin’ frogs. Amen! I have to say, when it comes to throwing me a curveball, this one fits the bill. I did not expect to see a found footage movie about a froggy man cryptid. The film fits in with similar films of someone obsessed by something they want to… Continue reading FROGMAN – found footage review

PROJECT SKYQUAKE – found footage review
I have to say, I really love the found footage movies that mix in a bit of faux-documentary to the proceedings. When done well, it adds an element of realism that, even as you KNOW the film is just a movie, makes you wonder - maybe? There are plenty of examples of movies that do… Continue reading PROJECT SKYQUAKE – found footage review
GAME CAMERA – found footage review
As a non-hunter, the idea of game cameras fascinates me and freaks me out. I get why people use them for hunting, but man, they freak me out. The idea that you’re leaving a camera in a remote area and could capture any number of things feels inherently creepy. I get that you’re likely to… Continue reading GAME CAMERA – found footage review
XIII – found footage movie review
First and foremost, I have to say that this isn’t a feature film. It’s sort of like a novella for movies. It’s longer than most shorts but not a feature (which, for me, is at least 60/61 minutes). That doesn’t mean I wouldn’t recommend it, especially as it’s easily available (for now) on Tubi. I… Continue reading XIII – found footage movie review
SHOPPING TOUR- found footage review
FAIR WARNING! Going in, it’s good to note that the film, which is definitely in the “found footage” subgenre, breaks the rules at the end and breaks them for an arbitrary reason. As the film ends, the camera goes from being all POV to a backward tracking shot that shows a full scene. To do… Continue reading SHOPPING TOUR- found footage review
V/H/S/: Beyond – found footage review
For a series that has become an annual event, it really is remarkable how solid this franchise is. The use of found footage as the way these short films are presented give everything a connection point and makes it so the films don't need to be big budget. The series is also a great place… Continue reading V/H/S/: Beyond – found footage review
THE MITCHIN MURDERS – found footage review
YouTube is an interesting space for found footage. It’s a fantastic place to find, and post, short films and is absolutely FULL of FF shorts. The site has also become a really interesting option for posting full features. Once upon a time you put these films either from a studio or you and your friends… Continue reading THE MITCHIN MURDERS – found footage review
VISHER – found-ish footage review
OK, this movie breaks the rules. I found it on YouTube and it claims to be found footage, but isn’t. It’s SORTA found footage. It uses a LOT of found footage, but also has shots of an actor that wouldn’t make sense to have a camera on him. It’s an angle that COULD be like… Continue reading VISHER – found-ish footage review
BEYOND THE NORTH WOODS – found footage review
As I have mentioned before, it's interesting to note the trends in found footage. To see what gets popular because it reflects where the culture is at that moment. At this moment influencers and digital content producers are the catch of the day. It makes sense because they are, well, influencing the culture and how… Continue reading BEYOND THE NORTH WOODS – found footage review
#MISSINGCOUPLE – found footage review
The post discusses the film "#MISSINGCOUPLE," focusing on a young couple and their dog as they explore their new property while filming their adventures. The narrative blends reality and mystery with engaging performances, though it raises questions about found footage and narrative reliability. Despite some unresolved mysteries, it remains entertaining and thought-provoking.
NAME THE DEMON – found footage review
The supernatural is a tried and true topic for found footage films and horror movies, and with reason. It is our fear of not just our physical selves but our metaphysical selves that keeps many of us awake at night. The fear that not only could something happen to our body, but also to our… Continue reading NAME THE DEMON – found footage review
MILK & SERIAL – found footage review
It’s so interesting seeing how influencer culture has become such a prevalent part of found footage. It makes sense in that it has become such a huge part of modern American society. People wanting others to see their lives, acknowledge their lives, and follow their lives. Needing to be seen and wanting to turn our… Continue reading MILK & SERIAL – found footage review
LIFE OF BELLE – found footage review
I find it hard to wrap my head around parents today. On one hand, they fret and worry over ‘predators’ and ‘grooming’ and want to safeguard their kids from the world all while they create social media accounts for them so they can be ‘influencers’ and followed by strangers. It’s weird. On one hand it… Continue reading LIFE OF BELLE – found footage review
