There's something inherently unsettling about found footage, and discovering it at a thrift store? Pure nightmare fuel. I recently stumbled upon a VHS tape labeled simply "The Blackwood Project" tucked away in a dusty box. Curiosity, and perhaps a touch of morbid fascination, got the better of me.
What I found was...disturbing. The shaky camera work, the amateur acting (or maybe it wasn't acting at all), and the increasingly frantic tone painted a horrifying picture of a group investigating local folklore in the Blackwood forest. Whispers in the dark, fleeting shadows, and then... well, I won't spoil it. Let's just say the ending left me sleeping with the lights on.
This begs the question: what other terrifying films are lurking on thrift store shelves? Have you ever unearthed a creepy cinematic secret? Share your own found footage finds in the comments! You never know what horrifying gems (or curses) are waiting to be rediscovered.
