PARANORMAL ACTIVITY (2007)—After moving into a suburban home, Katie (Katie Featherston) and Micah (Micah Sloat) become increasingly disturbed by what appears to be a supernatural presence. Hoping to capture evidence of it on film, they set up video cameras in the house but are not prepared for the terrifying events that follow.
REC (2007)—Late-night television reporter Ángela Vidal is covering a story on the local firehouse. Through the lens of her cameraman, Pablo, they follow a team of firefighters who get a call from an apartment building nearby about a trapped woman. When they arrive, they find a woman who is obviously distressed. What follows is a night that none of them will ever forget.
Welcome to our last double-feature of the season, a double dose of classic found footage films. Neither of these films is perfect, but we feel the lesser popular one far exceeds its counterpart. Join us, as we discuss the pros and cons of both films, including the budget, screenplay (or lack thereof), pacing, cast, and scares! Listen, as Johnny Has the Keys plays voyeur to both a haunted house AND a zombie-infected apartment building.
