From the movie The Poughkeepsie Tapes - a decent but not great mockumentary.

That sums it up well. Worth the hour and a half it takes to watch it, but that's about it.

I'll admit that the movie unnerved me. It was pretty disturbing, but I'm a fan of mockumentaries, so my opinion's a little biased.

I liked it quite a bit. Really eerie and has a number of moments like this throughout that were pretty clever.

It was a good idea and had some disturbing scenes, but the acting kind of ruined the film for me to be honest. Still decent and worth watching though, but not one of the best faux documentaries around. As a fellow mockumentary fan, one of the best mockumentaries I've seen lately is Lake Mungo.

Anyone know where to watch it? Can't find it streaming.

There's also this one if you don't want to watch a recording of some guy's TV.

when it was released, even though the trailer was pretty mainstream, it was only given a limited release and was only shown in select places. There was never a DVD release until very recently. As of August 2011 you can rent and buy it from Blockbuster.com (though I just checked and they say you can't rent and buy it online.)

It isn't supposed to be that good (audience score of 46 on rotten tomatoes, no critic score) so I would just not bother. Maybe it will get an actual DVD release at some point, but until then it isn't worth the effort you would need to put in to actually see it.

The whole reason I saw this is because I'm going to college in Poughkeepsie. Certainly not great. And the acting was pretty horrendous.

[–]stopXstoreytime 2 points3 points ago

Seriously. This movie was such a disappointment.

[–]thnlwsn 0 points1 point ago

Yup. It was so low budget and there were so many people in it that it's hard to expect much better in the acting department. I guess the girl who played the crazy stockholm syndrome girl was alright (at least compared to the rest).

What is "notfourchan.net" and why does it terrify me more than this .gif?

I have never seen the movie, but that is a damn creepy scene!

[–]Offensive_Brute 15 points16 points ago

if your a horror fan you should be immune to bad acting and mediocre writing, and you should be able to enjoy this movie.

[–]Dexiro 7 points8 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I thought it was brilliant. It might have helped that I didn't have everyone telling me the acting was terrible before I watched it, I didn't know everyone thought that until just now :P

[–]Born4theslaughter 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Sounds good to me. I actually think that bad acting gives something to the performance of a horror movie.

[–]Offensive_Brute 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

yeah to me its just an integral part of the genre, when the acting is too good, I feel like I'm watching a terrible poser trying desperately to fit in.

[–]builtonfire 4 points5 points ago

I've seen this posted a few times now, but am too creeped out to watch the Poughkeepsie Tapes. Just what the hell is going on in this scene?

[–]Dexiro 10 points11 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Well the woman is tied up, and the serial killer is doing his thang and being all creepy while he kills her.

[–]builtonfire 4 points5 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

Ohhhhh. Oh. Okay.

[–]real-dreamer 1 point2 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

I think this is the scene where he says that he won't kill her if she doesn't blink.

And.... source Scroll to the bottom of the plot and there you go!

[–]Fizzbit 2 points3 points ago

sorry, this has been archived and can no longer be voted on

SPOILERS!!!!!!!!

I thought this was the one where he picks up the woman in the car and says "I'm going to rape you. And if you don't fight me, I'll let you go. But if you do, I'll kill you." When she agrees he laughs at her and then it flips to this scene.

The Wikipedia article says that the film ends with the woman blinking, but I'm pretty sure this scene ends in him actually piercing the woman's throat with those needles and she chokes on her own blood and it spits up out of her mouth and you see it seep out of the tape.

[–]real-dreamer 1 point2 points ago

Yup... not interested in this film. I've not seen it, I was just trying to be helpful.

Thank you.

Everybody says this movie (The Poughkeepsie Tapes) has bad acting and writing or whatever, but I loved it! Granted I watched it alone in a dark garage at 1 in the morning, but it certainly gave me the creeps. I definitely recommend it.

This looks more derpy than creepy.

Somehow the needle-fingers kills it for me. Woulda been better if it had stopped before that part.

An absolute must-see. A look into the mind of the Kendall Francois, the infamous serial killer of Poughkeepsie, NY. Keep in mind, it's only based on Kendall Francois. As in, the crimes committed by the Poughkeepsie Killer in the Poughkeepsie Tapes were of similar magnitude, but the actual serial killer didn't tape his murders.

I didn't find this creepy at all and it's certainly not from being desensitized.
