Vincent R At first I thought this was a true story of a very sick monster man type of person but it was all make believe. I found it was all fake on Google and I couldn’t believe my eyes that this was all fake. They did a wonderful job making everything look so realistic. I know this came out years ago but I hope they make a squirrel about this sick disturbing movie. Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 07/18/24 Full Review Dallas H Is this movie supposed to be scary? I think it's more like a psychological litmus test to separate the narcissists who could suffer through a disorder of victim mentality than anything else. Rated 1/5 Stars •  Rated 1 out of 5 stars 06/23/24 Full Review Lynx H Personally this movie was not nearly as bad as ive heard it is. There really isnt any showing of what goes on in the tapes. People have told me that its extremely disturbing so I went into this being freaked out, but it wasnt bad at all. I liked the story because this could actually happen in real life which makes it unsettling, but I wish it had more plot and explained more. Because of how they hid things and cut things off you never truly understand much about the man behind the mask. Would I rewatch this no. Was it an enjoyable movie yes. Id say for anyone wanting to get more into graphic horror movies, this is a good beginning one! Rated 2/5 Stars •  Rated 2 out of 5 stars 06/19/24 Full Review Joel M This movie is very scary due to how realistic it is, but like there is no mystery or plot. It would be cool if they leaned into it being a murder mystery instead of it just being found footage "torture tapes". The interview near the end was probably the best part of the movie if I'm being honest. Scary but kinda missed potential. 6/10 would recommend if into found footage shock films. Rated 3/5 Stars •  Rated 3 out of 5 stars 04/06/24 Full Review Mortal It was not very scary. It was filmed as a documentary of a serial killer and completed with his own tapes. There are scenes that are disturbing but I would not say that it is the best thing I ever watched. Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 03/10/24 Full Review Jacob C Likely to be one of the best found footage films from the 2000's, the Poughkeepsie Tapes does provide a morbid perspective from a killer during their acts. However, serious flaws remain with the balancing of the story's elements, which needed nore attentiveness to make this film the best it can be.
