1974: La posesión de Altair

It took me an age to find this. It's a Mexican FF horror. Highly recommended for FF fans. It's set in 1974 and a grainy camera is used to give more authenticity. It starts off pretty basic but by halfway through you can tell it's going to get better. It's definitely worth a watch if you can find it. I don't want to give anything away as it's better going in blind. As I said, it took a lot of digging to find this and you'll need to seek out the subtitles on your own. All in all, I highly recommend this to Found Footage, it's definitely one of the better in this sub-genre. If you can find it. 8/10.

I just saw it yesterday and it is one of those movies that are original and to the point, as it was filmed on a 8 mm camera it looks kind of dark and mysterious and it works perfectly with the movie, it is the first film by this director and I would say that he has a lot of potential, it is actually the first Mexican-Horror movie that I watched and I definitely give it two thumbs up!

This is a truly great found footage film made in Mexico, becoming an exceptional production with a superb ambiance, not only its setting in 1974, but also the visual editing to make it look like realistic home movies filmed in those times.

This film was a really good horror film. The director has great storytelling talent. Film had a nostalgic feeling because it was shot with 8mm camera. It felt real and I was totally blown away by the birds when they were hitting themselves to the windows and killing themselves and then eating the dead birds. That froze my mind. It was scary. The found footage genre do not give you enough room to explore the different point of views of other characters except the one holding the camera but this film was very well done and it reminded me of another film which I saw, House of Temptation.

I'll be thinking about this one for a while. Very creepy. Well done. Definitely top 5 in the found footage horror genre.
