Police shooting spirals into supernatural horror with found footage elements
The brief
Brandon Christensen turns a police shooting into supernatural nightmare fuel, starting grounded and realistic before careening into full-blown demonic chaos. The 75-minute runtime feels relentless once things go sideways, with Jaime M. Callica anchoring the descent as guilt and otherworldly horror blur together. It's less concerned with social commentary than using real-world trauma as a launchpad for old-school scares. Perfect for fans of The Night House or anyone who wants their horror rooted in something devastatingly human before it goes completely off the rails.
The verdict
If you crave horror that starts brutally realistic before diving headfirst into supernatural terror, this 75-minute adrenaline shot delivers relentless scares anchored by genuine human trauma. If you're looking for thoughtful social commentary on police violence or can't handle movies that exploit real-world issues for genre thrills, you'll want to skip this one.
