Style Found Footage

The Story
Five strangers agree to live together in an isolated house for six months, every moment filmed, competing for a cash prize that comes with a catch none of them read closely enough.
Verdict
I think this is a genuinely underrated reality-TV-horror hybrid. It came out well before found footage really took off as a mainstream genre, and I don’t think it gets enough credit for how much suspense it builds using such a simple premise. The performances carry it further than its low profile would suggest. Worth seeking out if you haven’t seen it.
