8 of the Best Found Footage Horror Movies You've Never Heard of

[@reggaegal231]

I love Hell House LLC, it's one of the scariest horror movies I've seen. The movie feels pretty real, and the scares are top notch. So worth it

[@mandysmorgueofhorror]

I agree! It actually scared me and made me afraid to go to sleep the night I watched it, which is very rare for me at this point in my life.

[@lucyinthesky4682]

I love Hell House LLC too! I actually like the trilogy, although I'm an odd one an like 2 better than 3. The ending of 3 was just is a bit weird for me. The first time I saw Hell House LLC I was so freaked out and I remembered the movie but couldn't find it anywhere for a couple years and no one knew what I was talking about. I've made everyone I know watch it with me. The scene with Paul under the covers makes my heart pound and when Sarah is downstairs talking to the wall is so freaky. If you haven't seen 2 (gives a lot of history) and 3 you should watch. Cognetti was really dedicated to the trilogy because in 2 there are hints that show who will be the guests in 3, you just need to watch and pay attention.

[@lastemoon]

I love hell house! I watch the movies all the time! 3 is my least favorite, but I love 1 and 2

[@Goose.Films.]

Savageland is one of the best found footage horror films I've ever seen. Super creative and atmospheric, it has a less is more approach to scares but is also very poignant and truly evokes the tone of the original night of the living dead. Also, pretty much any film directed by Koji Shiraishi is guaranteed to be a banger. He is one of the masters of the found footage genre and even outside of his most famous film Noroi: the curse he has a bunch of great spooky movies- I highly recommend Occult

[@rageagainstmyhairline5574]

THANK YOU for not rolling out the same old movies literally ever single person puts in their 'never heard of' or 'might have missed' videos. It drives me nuts. You 100% earned the like and sub. Well done and thanks again!

[@timothylewis2450]

Just watched Horror InThe High Desert. Loved it. Not boring at all, very suspenseful, well written told and spooky, eventually creepy! Best little story I’ve seen in a long time!

[@mandysmorgueofhorror]

Glad to hear you enjoyed it!

[@jasonmay2023]

The sequel is great too!

[@scotthaynes7289]

Another found footage movie worth checking out on Tubi is The Final Prayer. It’s British also goes by the title The Borderlands. I was surprised by how much I liked it.

[@mandysmorgueofhorror]

Awesome - thanks for the rec!

[@2st_duallist]

that ending scarred me for life. edit: lol is that belial in your avatar?

@@2st_duallist it is! That ending took me a few minutes to figure out. Once I did, I was stoked.

I wanted to let you know i finally watched this movie and HOLY CRAP - that ending 👀

[@scotthaynes7289]

@@mandysmorgueofhorror right? I think it'll be a part of the found footage doc coming out this month. I hope you liked it.

I literally go on tubi every night and try to find new found footage movies lol. These are all good

[@joshcrow777]

Just found you and your channel through the algorithm gods recommending this. Instant sub! Love found footage horror, it's actually my favorite sub genre! I'm dialed in for all horror! I'm catching up on your content now! Edit: If you haven't seen Followers (2017) I feel like nobody's seen it and it's a pretty wild ride!

[@TheHorrorGeek]

I'm always sort of surprised at how many horror fans tell me they hate found footage. Like you, it's one of my favorite subgenres. Great list! I don't know why the algorithm hasn't recommended your channel to me. Good stuff.

[@shamblepants1450]

Found footage is definitely a favourite of mine. I get so happy starting one I've never seen - even those long car/van discussions at the beginning of so many get me psyched! You just never know what on earth you're gonna get. Thanks for the list! Quite a few I haven't seen.

[@mandysmorgueofhorror]

I get hyped when I find a good one I haven’t seen, too! Glad you found this list useful.

[@tshwanegaming]

lol, you know whats better than finding a new found footage film? finding people who enjoy finding new FF films, i love you guys :)

[@HOLYPARISHOFDOOM]

Good run-down. The Conspiracy and They're Watching are particularly effective!

[@DarthC0MB0S]

Horror in the high desert is so well made and it’s so good and to say it’s boring wasn’t really a great description of the film. The actors and filmmaker did such an amazing job capturing the realism behind creating a documentary and the actors and actresses were so amazing you would never have thought this wasn’t a mockumentary until the end. Just think you should have gave it a little better of a praise for how well made it was for what it was.

[@tjacobemxw109]

Someone needs to do a full movie similar to Safe Haven in VHS 2. That was a great found footage short

[@CJ_Comedy85]

I’m loving these recommendations!! I need to get you on my horror podcast to talk about some of your favorites.

[@briancampbell8406]

Nice choices. Appreciate giving me hours of new horror. Only one I haven't seen is the Leah Silverman footage. Look forward to another list....maybe a top creature feature list. Thanks again

[@adamsteinbacher2629]

Really solid recs! Checking out Death of a Vlogger now and that scene where they go back to his flat that first time and wake up in the night was TENSE. So well executed.

[@mandysmorgueofhorror]

They have a lot of really effective and well executed scares!

[@TheABSRDST]

Just watched The Lost Footage of Leah Sullivan. What a gem! Really spooky stuff. I'm also a new englander and i felt like I knew these people! Horror in the High Desert was kind of hit and miss.

[@mandysmorgueofhorror]

Glad you enjoyed Leah Sullivan! Horror in the High Dessert really sold me in the last like 15 minutes.

[@shouldiwatchthis6889]

Awesome recs. I've only seen half of these, but they were really good, so I'm interested in the rest. Thanks! The Fear Footage was a good one. I rented on Amazon, couldn't find it streaning anywhere. It's about a cop who investigates a house that literally appears out of nowhere. While inside the cop watches vhs recordings, so it's an anthology with the wraparound story like walking through a Halloween haunt.

[@jeff8228]

Leaving DC is a great one. Literally one character for 98% of the movie and the acting is really good

[@dragongeraldb]

Thank you, nice video with just enough about the movies to know what they are about without spoiling them.

[@habituallinestepper8839]

Just watched Horror in the High Desert. Really enjoyed it.

[@sachaput]

I loved Conspiracy, didn't see where it was going. Also agree on Gonjiam and Butterfly Kisses, both of which I recommend to friends. I grew up in Connecticut, so will have to check out Leah Sullivan. Thanks for the recommendations.

[@mikeseder9385]

Thanks for the recs. The only one I've seen is They're Watching, which is really amazing -- hilarious, creepy, and very well-made. Will be watching the rest soon!

[@mandysmorgueofhorror]

It’s really great. Enjoy!

[@omegaglitch13]

Love found footage and you named a couple I have not seen. Great vid!

[@BebeLush2]

Hell House was great. Kinda drops the ball at the end, but overall, an excellent found footage film.

[@KJG2ndComing]

Thank you for the recs. I've added it to my watchlist and can't wait to see them

[@williammatthews693]

Great Picks! If I could add my own suggestion for you since it is a film that no one seems to have heard of, has amazing performances and is simultaneously disturbing and heartbreaking, especially for a found footage film, check out "Exhibit A". It's sometimes available on Amazon Prime but I bought the DVD because I think it's so good. Definitely not your typical found footage film!

[@mandysmorgueofhorror]

I’ve seen that while browsing , but didn’t know much about it. Thank you for the recommendation!

[@feliciafields3080]

Have you seen Hell House, LLC.? It’s a low budget found footage movie series about a group of friends who produced their own haunted house.

[@wastelandsniper789]

If you've never seen it, check out the Korean movie R-Point. A group of Korean soldiers disappears during the Vietnam war. Six months later their HQ starts getting radio calls from them, so another team is sent out to find the survivors. It's not found footage, but it's probably one of my favorite horror movies ever. The Koreans are really good at horror. Side note: while not super scary, the Korean movie Hansel and Gretel is unsettling and weird. Also recommend.

[@mmckitr]

I found a movie on Tubi called Savageland. It's shot more like a documentary, kind of in the vein of Poughkeepisie Tapes though the two movie are vastly different. I was blown away by this movie and cannot recommend it enough

[@maevemaiden]

It's cool that you are from New England and love one filmed in NE, I'm literally from Ellicott City, MD where the movie Butterfly Kisses was filmed. Though I have to say, EC is a very small town & the people they had as locals were most likely not from EC with the exception of one or two lol. I have been in Patapsco park many many times and that tunnel is super creepy even during the day. Also, our town is plagued with tons of ghosts, ghost stories, floods, fires and is generally haunted anyway so I am surprised more movies aren't shot in this area. In addition to the fires and floods we actually had something super scary happen a few years ago where two girls were posting pics on social media up on the train tracks and were killed by a freak train accident may they rest in peace. Loved this one.Great picks!

[@laviathian2002]

Have you seen The Atticus Institute? It is a great found footage film!

[@Dirt-McGirt]

Big fan of Butterfly Kisses and Leah Sullivan. Butterfly Kisses was filmed near where i live so i probably lean a lil closer to that movie. Sad to see that the director passed away. Seemed like he put a lot into that movie, even has a few videos on KZbin with him in character, with friends and family of the main character Gavin. Horror in the High Desert was another good 1.

[@ISAACHALLEY3000]

I've watched Gonjiam, it's terrifying! Really well made. Would be awesome a found footage movie about the Mothman, Slenderman or the Loch Ness Monster.

[@brandon.lewis.]

Leah Sullivan is one of my favorite FF films ever, and I've seen em all. Good to know I'm not the only one who has seen it

[@2st_duallist]

@@mandysmorgueofhorror what do you think about PA:Next of Kin? i know its a mainstream franchise, but im a sucker for that franchise, and i found the new direction intriguing. from the way its paced maybe this time we'll get a trilogy with a more apocaliptic plot and on a larger scale. instead of spending 6 movies (and like what, 12 years?) to get to the end of story.

Butterfly Kisses, Death of the Vlogger, The Conspiracy, Followed are really good found footage films. Haven't seen Haunted Asylum and Lost Footage of Leah Sullivan and Horror in the High Desert.

[@187onasimp]

Thought I was the only one that enjoyed "Found Footage" movies. When they're done poorly they are bad but when they're done great they are amazing.

[@2st_duallist]

agreed. the style makes for some very creative choices, if one has the creativity to make them.

[@oakeysmokey]

i love that they can be about anything that the creator can think of it is my go to genre of late

[@bernardmulligan5504]

When I was a teenager some friends of mine made the trip up to the abandoned Pennhurst asylum. It was only about an hour north of us. This was before it became a haunted attraction. They broke in and took a few pictures. I had to work so I didn't go, but I'm glad, my one buddy came back convinced he saw things. He would show us the pictures he took but no one could see what he was talking about. True story.

[@Ava_Orchid]

I have never ever seen a movie with better more realistic and likable actors than The Lost Footage of Leah Sullivan. I feel like I am watching a vlog of people who have been working together for decades. It is just so normal and not over produced and the way people act is realistic for the most part. Man idk who those people are but they are great

[@mandysmorgueofhorror]

That’s exactly how I felt watching it & why I loved the movie so much!

Followed, The Lost Footage of Leah Sullivan & Butterfly Kisses were very good movies. They're Watching & Death of a Vlogger were pretty good movies. I couldn't get into Horror in the High Desert at all. I was bored out of my mind. That would be the only one out of these films that I would not recommend!!

[@nadya2001144]

Mandy, I hope you're reading my comment. Would like to recommend you to watch an Indonesia horror found footage 'Sacred' (it's available on Netflix Indonesia), which tells about a crew of indie films who gets possessed during the filming and it throws the team into a mystic experience in Merapi mountain (one of the most active volcanoes in Indonesia). It's intense, one of the best horror movies in my country, especially because we--the people--share the same belief of how sacred that mountain could be...

Wondering if u know which film I'm describing. 🎥 👍

Probably just me here but I found Evil Things pretty effective, at least the first go. Granted I'd had the house to myself at the time and a secondary view didn't hold up as well.
