What they share

Theysit in Horror / Mystery / Thriller territory. If that's the register that drew you to Pandorum, the second film will land in a comparable space — through a different lens.

What The Poughkeepsie Tapes is

Upstate New York. Autumn leaves. A box of tapes. Stacks of snuff film recovered from a killer's lair depict his methods and obsessions. The tapes also reveal one victim who lived, then disappeared again. Dowdle's found-footage film skirts the edge of torture-porn.
