My weakness is bad found footage movies and boy howdy have I seen a few.

I'll go to bat for the Bad Ben series. The first one had a single actor in it who filmed in his house. He wanted to make a horror movie and when the actor he hired backed out Nigel said gently caress it and did it himself. It's about a grumpy middle aged man from New Jersey who buys a house at a Sheriff Sale and it ends up being haunted. He has since made 5 sequels and a cartoon short that he animated himself (don't watch this it's bad in the unfun ways). A seventh movie is in the works where Tom Riley Paranormal Investigator has become an Uber driver and gets attacked by more ghosts.

I second the Bad Ben series, especially the first movie. They're very charming in a Z movie 0 budget way. Mostly cuz Tom Riley is way more upset about the poetential ghost demons ruining him flipping this house than anything else.

The making of video is worth a watch too because not only does it go into regular VFX stuff but also convoluted janked up FX he had to come up with because he was the only one making most of the movie. Like how to open a door spookily when you've already left the scene. run around the house and pull on a fishing wire


My personal contribution is Armageddon Code 2: Megiddo. It's the biggest budget modern Christian action movie I've ever seen. And soooo schlocky. Like the Christian president cocking a pistol while reciting "The Lord giveths *kok* The Lord taketh"
