Definitely one of the better found footage movies! Love the direction they went with Gavin. Annoying director trying to exploitate something in order to gain fame and fortune

if Erik's making a movie, and Gavin's making a movie, and Feldman and Sophia are making a movie, then who's driving the bus?

What a refreshing take on found footage, not at all what I expected! It works not only as a solid horror experience, but also as a kind of self-aware commentary on the genre itself with an underlying layer about modern obsessions and how easily they can spiral, pulling people deeper until they lose their grip on reality.

It honestly reminded me of the kinds of internet horror rabbit holes I’ve personally fallen into over the years—things like Slender Man tapes, Bohemian Grove theories, the Backrooms, The King in Yellow, even Five Nights at Freddy’s with its dense lore and ARG-style expansion into something that feels almost like modern folklore. The film really captures that same unsettling feeling of getting trapped in an idea and not being able to let it go.

It was also fun hearing the film name drop so many familiar places in MD, it just adds a weird layer of realism. The REAL Peeping Tom is Kyree from Severna Park smh
