Originally, this movie was going to be promoted by director, writer, actor and producer Fred Vogel leaving VHS tapes of this movie in random locations around the United States, such as parks and playgrounds. I have no idea what people would think when they saw this.

When he went to Canada to attend the Rue Morgue Festival of Fear in Toronto, Vogel was arrested, pending charges of transporting obscene materials into Canada for having copies of this movie.

That should tell you what you’re getting into.

Peter and his cameraman have a woman named Laura in his basement and they take their time killing her in a found footage kind of way that is never properly framed or filmed, which makes it seem real. There is no joy in what you watch, just a realistic version of what a serial killer’s footage would look like.

Sure, there’s a tour of Roadside America, one of the lost and sadly department parts of Pennsylvania kitsch history, but that’s just a short break before sodomy and hammers to the head dance as partners. Is it for you? I mean, is it for anyone? It definitely feels as real as it gets and I don’t know if that’s something I need to see.

You could also be an edgelord and be like, “I’m cooler than you because I endured this.”
