Found footage horror is a genre that strips away the artifice. It’s messy, very messy at times, but it gives you a different sense of terrifying because it all feels like it could be real.

I will start by saying, none of these films I have listed below are so obscure that no-one has ever heard of them. Hell, a couple of them have even been widely acclaimed in the indie world. But I do think they are hidden gems. I barely see them mentioned on sites, or when discussing films with people, and most of them don’t have too many IMDB reviews either.
I love horror films/shows, and have been watching horror for 30 odd years, and I am sure many will say I am a wuss, but these jump scare attempts got me good when I first watched them.
Go on, make fun of me.
Horror: the genre that taught us it’s totally normal to run towards the noise in the basement. But horror isn’t just one big lumbering monster. It’s a Frankenstein’s creature of sub genres.
