The Poughkeepsie Tapes is a found footage horror movie covering horrific case studies of a serial killer who taped his atrocities. The storyline presents itself in the form of interviews, police tapes, and tapes found, putting the viewer into the demented brain of the killer.

This movie is distinct with an unsettling approach of realism and psychological horror because it portrays the thin line between fiction and reality. The Poughkeepsie Tapes involves debates over voyeurism and trauma related to violence and the impact that it causes.
