A washed-up true-crime writer finds a box of super 8 home movies that suggest the murder he is currently researching is the work of a serial killer whose work dates back to the 1960s.
Although this horror movie does manage to create an atmosphere of dread and does find some strong (and disturbing) images plus a downbeat ending, it's all old hat adding nothing new to the genre.
Maltin**: "A horror film that's not exactly in the found-footage genre but is about found footage, which, of course, we see. Good-looking, well-produced movie (on a budget) - but based on a complicated, unlikely mythology - wearily plods its way to the expected ending."
