Episode 008: The Poughkeepsie Tapes (2007)

Posted on June 23, 2021February 20, 2022 By Genre Exposure No Comments on Episode 008: The Poughkeepsie Tapes (2007)

In this episode, we tackle the world of Found Footage with John Erick Dowdle’s pseudo-documentary The Poughkeepsie Tapes. This is an interesting and notable film if for nothing else than its strange release history and the urban legend spawning notoriety that it gained; which we eagerly dive into. Jason charts the film’s reputation of being difficult to handle and where it sits in the pantheon of “extreme” horror cinema among other infamous titles. Michael points out the various true crime connections and possible inspirations on the narrative to be found with other famous serial killers. Meanwhile, Dustin threatens to derail the whole show as he gets way too hung up on the particular events of the story and the characterization of our leading serial killer. And so much more!

What We’ve Been Watching:
-Jason: The Barbarians (1987)
-Dustin: Teketeke (2009)
-Michael: As Above, So Below (2014)
