If you liked the anthology found footage film The Christmas Tapes from a couple years back, you're almost certain to enjoy this film as well.

It's from the same filmmakers and has a similar format to that one -- a series of first-person horror vignettes introduced as tapes being watched in a frame story -- but the haunting/possession theme and the decision to shoot the wraparound outside of the found footage style makes this distinctive.

The stories themselves are all enjoyable with zero duds which is quite an accomplishment for a low budget horror anthology. Personally I enjoyed the final story set within the world of a cult the best, but to each their own.

I first heard about this one stumbling on the trailer and was surprised to see that it had 100% on Rotten Tomatoes (maybe a little high tbh). The trailer promised "Creep meets The Sacrament" with a supernatural Egyptian twist and that's exactly what the film delivers. I love the way the movie switches gears so deftly between styles - the mockumentary sequence that opens the film sucks you right into the world and the exploration of the empty cult grounds fills you with dread before switching into a really satisfying two-hander before totally delivering on the promise of the poster. Highly recommended for die hard fans of found footage hungry for something new. If you didn't like Creep, The Sacrament, or Blair Witch, probably won't be your cup of tea.
