As a POV horror film following ‘Paranormal Activity,’ this movie is notable for its setting in an abandoned mental hospital and its cleverly ironic opening with a staged paranormal TV show. The film effectively builds tension in confined spaces through skillful ghost effects, despite its low budget. However, its main weakness is the disconnect between its amateur-filming premise and the professional-grade camerawork, compounded by a loss of momentum in the latter half. Ultimately, while it doesn't fully realize the potential of its asylum setting, it stands out as a worthwhile watch for POV horror fans seeking both innovation and genre shortcomings.

This sequel to the Spanish POV horror film REC maintains the first film's tension and adds fresh perspectives.

Often called the peak of found-footage horror, this film is made entirely from television footage. With a real TV reporter as the lead, it feels incredibly real, combining careful use of space and nonstop tension to keep you on edge. In just 78 minutes, it covers every modern horror element. It stands out as a top zombie film while also leaving occult mysteries open, letting your imagination fill in the gaps. This is a true masterpiece.

The development from the amateurish images in the first half to the VFX in full swing in the second half makes you want to smile (the flying scene reminds me of DB).

The POV method is a low-budget method that can be a big hit depending on the idea. This film was shot using the POV method and was full of realism and tension as the audience ran from monsters and destroyed buildings.
