Final Prayer is a free movie on YouTube. I don't mean someone uploaded it, I mean if you look at YouTube's official account of free films, it's there.

Edit: forgot to post a link - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jdGzGtAXisc

I dunno what it is about that film but I fucking loved Leaving DC

u/cosi_bloggs avatar

It's the whole living away from society, enjoying your own company, being in the woods, etc. The pacing is also great. It allows you to immerse yourself in the lifestyle. The way they treated the nefarious force isn't deleterious to this, but it may make you think twice.

It was lining up the flute sounds for me

i recomend You Dabbe 4, is on Netflix

u/cosi_bloggs avatar

Is this an anthology? How many are there? Is the first one no good?

u/pkersey6996 avatar

Great list. I need to check out the ones I have not seen.

Some people liked The Outwaters and it started promising but I thought it was a very poor film-

One the other hand- The Fear Footage trilogy is something I really enjoyed

Sorgoi Prakov

I never see anyone talk about this film, boy does it descend into madness!

u/National-Worry2900 avatar

Wait am I going doolally, no Borderlands? Seen most of them myself .

Try the Andy baker tape. Watched that last night it was alright , same with godforsaken for a bit of light and watching.

I know it gets some stick but I loved hell in high desert.

arent borderlands and final prayer the same movie? borderlands has another name. im not sure thats it though

u/National-Worry2900 avatar

Ah yes they are , I always forget the version for non Brit countries was called the last prayer.

I recently watched Leaving DC and didn't think much of it but I'm glad to see Dashcam high up on the list I love that one and I'm glad to see more people coming around to it

I recommend Frogman if you haven't seen it yet

u/RetiredMillionairee avatar

Sorgoi Pravkov for the win. Just make it through the first act as I always say. Some of those movies including S.P., are on Tubi for free. If you’re looking for a sequel, Grave Encounters 2 was passable.

Leaving DC is so good!

watch the monster project

u/pkersey6996 avatar

I highly recommend if you want to watch The Fear Footage, please don’t pirate it.

It’s one guy who has made these three Fear Footage films a passion project - they are available via https://thefearfootage.com/product/the-fear-footage-on-blu-ray/

The packaging is super clever and how the movie is sent to you is very fun and makes watching the movie more enjoyable

The same guy also did Project Eerie, which is good too!

u/kwabsala avatar

All of the movies that you "can't find" are easy to find on the well known (pirate) streaming sites. Let me know if you need help or a link ;)

Hook a brotha up! DM me haha

u/cosi_bloggs avatar

Cool. Send me a link.

Horror in the High Desert 2: Minerva is also excellent! Apparently the 3rd one is complete but I’m not sure where to find it.

u/CreativeWaves avatar

Snow on tha Bluff. It's on Prime.

u/ApprehensiveIdeal120 avatar

Incantation is really good!

I liked Host a lot but I found the Blackwell Ghost series to be so much better. Especially 7 and 8. God damn.

u/cosi_bloggs avatar

Can I watch 7 and 8 without the context of the previous films?

Honestly yes but it would not give you the same impact as watching his journey from the beginning. You would definitely miss out on a certain something that's I guess hard to describe.

u/cosi_bloggs avatar

I'd probably watch them all, but I can't find any of them.

Amazon prime

Amber alert is so underrated. It gets a bad rating but for what it is, the movie is great.

u/cosi_bloggs avatar

I really, really liked it. It kept me engaged throughout the film. I don't know if one of the perceived issues with the film is how the female character is written, but I know women that would react exactly like that -- incoherent, irrational, histrionics, etc.

The Outwaters is on Tubi

Actually so is The Fear Footage, Behind the sightings, Dark Web, Death of a vlogger, and Followers

u/cosi_bloggs avatar

I can't find The Outwaters, The Fear Footage, Behind the Sightings or Followers. Some type of restriction in Australia?
