In the last 5-10 years, the found footage format has shifted more from feature-length horror films to short analog horror projects and alternate reality games on TikTok and Twitter. The analog horror emphasizes the nostalgic yet uncanny feeling conveyed by the technology of decades past.
The Ar games, on the other hand, use modern smartphones to convey a Pov atmosphere no worse than the student filmmakers of The Blair Witch Project could do with professional and amateur cameras.
And yet, no movie makes you feel for the characters like a found-footage movie. And when you add to the formula a skillful and clever approach to production and cinematography, as well as no less intriguing elements of supernatural and folk horror to the story, the result can be one of the scariest and most uncomfortable movies you've ever seen.

Before unleashing a cruel fate upon its characters — one of the worst in recent horror memory — The Borderlands leads the audience down a different path, insensibly alluding to what all lies ahead. The plot breadcrumbs of Elliot Goldner’s 2013 film are only more discernible after the fact. Until that momentous reveal, this plays out as a standard story of believers and nonbelievers investigating the religious unknown and finding more than they ever thought possible. What these unfortunate souls unearth is deeply disturbing.
Renamed Final Prayer in some parts, this British film has grown steadily in renown despite its small beginnings. Recently, Guillermo del Toro put The Borderlands on more radars; the popular filmmaker deemed it an “unknown gem.” Even before obtaining such a great endorsement, Goldner’s first feature (his only one to date) was applauded for its approach to first-person and folk-horror storytelling.

Cate Blanchett is one of our greatest living acting treasures. Truly, what can’t she do? Well, in the new trailer for Borderlands she’s battling space aliens, searching for buried treasure and a missing girl, and getting drenched in the questionable waters of “Piss-Wash Gully.”
Blanchett leads an all-star ensemble cast in the movie adaptation of the video game series, playing Lilith, an outlaw who reluctantly returns to her home planet to find the missing daughter of a powerful weapons manufacturer. Though that mission is also accompanied by the...

Based on the game with the same name, Borderlands is coming to theaters with their iconic action and humor. There seems to be a curse when translating video games to live action. Film adaptations based on IP that originated from other forms of media is common, studios all throughout history try and fail but occasionally get it right without butchering the source material, like The Last of Us on HBO which was also critically acclaimed. However, this project may see the same level of success if executed right, but so far the filmmakers have nailed one thing.
Looks are everything and if the costume department and casting director worked symbiotically then the end product that fans will likely receive will be a one-of-one perfect adaptation. Oscar winning actress Cate Blanchett stars as Lilith and upon a closer look of her character from the teaser trailer, it is safe to say...

Shot in seven days in the wilderness, Altar follows several longtime friends who end up fighting for their lives after coming across something unimaginably horrifying in the mountains. For our latest Q&A feature, we caught up with Altar writer/director Matt Sconce to discuss the improvisational atmosphere of his latest movie, the cast and crew's eerie encounters with wildlife during filming, and plans for a sequel.
Thanks for taking the time to answer some questions for us,Matt. When and how did you come up with the idea for Altar?
Matt Sconce: Altar was a concept from four years ago. My dad and I brainstormed the idea on a road trip and I wrote a loose outline called Altar, which then waited patiently on a shelf for the right timing. That timing came four years after writing the outline. My friends made a movie called The Gallows through Blumhouse,...

I’m a huge horror fan. The adrenaline rush of being scared (in the safety of my own home or in the movie theaters of course) is addicting. Once upon a time, when I had more spare time, I was constantly scouring the Internet for obscure (but well-reviewed) horror films. Unfortunately, I can’t do this as much as I use to, but I still watch many as I can. 2016 was a great year for big horror releases (The Witch, Don’t Breathe, The Invitation, The Green Room and Syfy's Channel Zero: Candle Cove anthology TV series are a few that come to mind), and 2017 is set to be another fantastic year with the recently-released and critically acclaimed movies, Get Out, Raw, and Split, and upcoming titles like the highly anticipated It and It Comes At Night. The future or horror is looking bright for the silver screen.

[Nb: With the film now – finally – available to buy in the UK (The Forgotten is out today from Metrodome), here’s a repost of my review of the film from the 2014 London Frightfest]
There has been, over the past few years, a growing trend in British horror for setting movies in abandoned housing estates and tower blocks. Joining the growing ranks is The Forgotten, which sees a father and son forced to squat in an empty London council estate scheduled for demolition, seemingly abandoned by the mother. A dark, creepy and foreboding place, the flat is no place for a family; even less so after 14 year old Tommy starts to hear strange noises coming from the boarded-up flat next door…

Elliot Goldner’s Final Prayer (aka The Borderlands) is a truly eerie affair, standing above the current glut of Pov/found footage horror with a folk sensibility and killer sound design. Unfortunately the rural-set UK horror hasn’t had a chance to make much impact stateside, playing once in 2013 at L.A.’s Beyond Fest and seemingly not again,…

Well it’s that time of year again – the one where websites across the globe churn out Top 10 list after top ten list. So why should we be any different?! Yet whilst we may be following the predictable end of year lists, I can guarantee that my list is anything but predictable, featuring films from across the globe: including the Us, Canada, Italy, Australia, New Zealand and even good old Blighty!
This year more than ever there has been film after film that knocked it out of the park for me – which is why my Top 10 list has Two sections: the Top 10 and then the pick of 35(!) more brilliant movies (I would have loved this list to be a Top 45, honestly). So what’s my criteria? Well it has to be a movie I’ve seen this year, one that was released this year, i.e. making its UK debut,...

There has been, over the past few years, a growing trend in British horror for setting movies in abandoned housing estates and tower blocks. Joining the growing ranks is this years Frightfest film, The Forgotten, which sees a father and son forced to squat in an empty London council estate scheduled for demolition, seemingly abandoned by the mother. A dark, creepy and foreboding place, the flat is no place for a family; even less so after 14 year old Tommy starts to hear strange noises coming from the boarded-up flat next door…

Elliot Goldner's The Borderlands (2013) is a knowingly familiar yet subversive British found-footage horror with enough fresh twists to satisfy devoted fans of handheld bumps and jumps. Comparable to the finest works of Britshock directors Robin Hardy and Ben Wheatley, an ancient evil once again stirs in dear old Blighty. To celebrate the home entertainment release of The Borderlands this coming Monday (7 April), we have Three DVD copies of the film to give away to our horror-loving readers, courtesy of the fantastic team at Metrodome Distribution. This is an exclusive competition for our Facebook and Twitter fans, so if you haven't already, 'Like' us at facebook.com/CineVueUK or follow us @CineVue before answering the question below.

★★★☆☆Touted in some quarters as one of the best British chillers of recent years - whilst more fervent supporters have heralded it as the lone saviour of the found-footage genre - Elliot Goldner's The Borderlands (2013) reaches DVD this week with some considerable weight upon its slight shoulders. Whilst it's far from being either of the aforementioned, Goldner's debut has a solid (and knowingly familiar) basic premise and enough fresh twists to satisfy devoted fans of handheld bumps and jumps. Comparable - though inferior - to the finest works of Britshock directors Robin Hardy and Ben Wheatley, an ancient evil once again stirs in dear old Blighty.

Review Ryan Lambie 28 Mar 2014 - 09:12
Rural Devon's the setting for the off-beat found-footage horror, The Borderlands. Here's Ryan's review...
Theoretically, anyone with a camera and a few friends can make a found-footage horror movie. But as countless lesser examples of the sub-genre have proved in the past, it’s relatively easy to point a wobbling camera at people stumbling about in a dark room, and far more difficult to make the resulting footage scary or entertaining to watch. The Borderlands, the feature debut from British director Elliot Goldner, includes all the shaky-cam hallmarks you’d expect, but thanks to some great writing and a trio of off-beat characters, it manages to stand out from the supernatural horror crowd.
In a small cottage in rural Devon, self-confessed tech geek Gray (frequent Ben Wheatley collaborator Robin Hill) busily straps cameras to both himself and just about every room in the quaint little building.

Low-budget British indie finds absolutely nothing new in the supposedly spooky found-footage subgenre, unless all the typical haunted-house frights occurring in a church counts. I’m “biast” (pro): nothing
I’m “biast” (con): nothing
(what is this about? see my critic’s minifesto)
Did you know that supernatural activity messes with videocameras, causes them to go all wonky and record distorted images and weird digital static? Of course you did, because every single found-footage flick that’s about people recording supernatural activity — which is somewhere around 98 percent of them — has featured such ostensible video “evidence.” First-time writer and director Elliot Goldner finds absolutely nothing new in this supposedly spooky subgenre… beyond lobbing his characters into a “crazy” ending that would appear to ensure that the footage they are recording — the footage that we are watching — may never actually be, you know, found. Vatican investigators Deacon (Gordon Kennedy) and...

In anticipation of the latest found footage horror The Borderlands, HeyUGuys caught up with filmmaker Elliot Goldner to discuss investigating paranormal events in a remote church.
Elliot spoke to us about the marketing of a filmmaker’s vision, the inner workings of found footage, and whether it is a genre or a style of filmmaking. During our discussion he also touched upon the influence of the individual filmmaker, horror masterpieces directed by directors outside of the genre, as well as the terrifying presence of Richard Burton and Snow White’s nemesis.
The experience of a film can be radically different to what the poster quotes lead you to expect, as is possibly the case here. But then film like all art forms is dependent on the subjective reaction of a broad audience.

Stars: Gordon Kennedy, Robin Hill, Luke Neal, Aidan McArdle, Sarah Annis, Lee Arnold, Patrick Godfrey, Marcus Cunningham | Written and Directed by Elliot Goldner
Elliot Goldner directs this British horror following a team of specialists from the Vatican who are drawn to a remote West Country church by reports of mysterious occurrences in the area.
The Borderlands sees a deacon from the Catholic Church (Gordon Kennedy) and a sound engineer (Robin Hill) dispatched to a small and ancient church in rural England to verify the claims of miraculous occurrences. Though Father Crellick (Luke Neal) has video footage of items apparently being moved around inside the church by supernatural forces, the deacon is a sceptic by nature and wants more conclusive evidence. He is later joined by another church official (Aidan McArdle) as shit goes from mysterious to frightening to crazy. They duly set up more cameras inside the ancient building, but...

We’ve just been tipped that Elliot Goldner’s gritty Brit horror The Borderlands has got itself a UK theatrical release, and while we cant say we know a whole lot about it, we’ve yet to find a bad review anywhere, from its turn on the festival circuits last year. So, can’t be bad!? The Borderlands opens in the UK April 4. Synopsis: Don’t believe everything you see! A team of Vatican investigators are sent to the British West Country to look into reports of paranormal activity during a Christening at a newly re-opened remote church. Father Crellick has webcam proof of artefacts moving on the altar and other weird happenings. But two of the three-man team aren’t so sure. Deacon and Father Mark Amidon are experts in the field of faked miracles and play the footage continually looking for wires and trickery. Going back through church records though,...

Last month we took a trip to Nottingham, England's cinephile haven Broadway Cinema for four days of eclectic genre programming at the 2013 Mayhem Horror Film Festival. Check in right here for a look at some of the sights and reviews from the East Midlands' premier horror fest.
The festival kicked off on Thursday 31st October with a special screening of director Nicholas Roeg's Don't Look Now and Puffball, taking place in the special environs of St. Mary's Church with Roeg himself in attendance to introduce and officially open this year's event.
Topping off the evening was Vincenzo Natali's underwhelming Haunter (review here).
While we weren't around for that particular evening's events, the following three days saw a schedule packed to the gills with guests, impromptu trivia-based giveaways, and screenings unfolding before and behind the Broadway's gorgeous red curtains, including:

While many are quick to note that "we've had enough found footage horror for right now, thank you very much," those of us who watch a ton of indie films may take solace in the fact that, hey, at least we're out of the woods now. Literally. While most of the micro-budget hand-held horror films have taken place deep in the woods (because forests are creepy, especially at night) or houses deep in the woods, there are some new arrivals that bring the soon-to-be-found footage out of the wilderness and into, well, the church.
The new indie thriller entitled Daylight manages to combine found footage with religion-based occult horror in rather fine fashion, and the (also new) UK import known as The Borderlands does it even better. If you're a fan of the "faux documentary" horror approach but you're looking for a slightly new take on the format, The Borderlands...

The festival opens this year with internationally-acclaimed British director Nicolas Roeg who will be presenting his most recent film Puffball as well as taking part in a very special screening of his masterpiece Don’t Look Now in the eerie settings of St Mary’s Church in the Lace Market.
Other special guests for the festival include American Director Brian Netto who will be presenting Delivery, The Borderlands Director Elliot Goldner and Producer Jennifer Handorf, and director Caradog James and Producer John Giwa-Amu for hi-tech British dark sci-fi The Machine. Mayhem are also hosting a special BAFTA screening of Jeremy Lovering’s In Fear which follows a young couple being tormented while driving in the countryside.

Opening Night and Saturday
Frightfest 2013 opened on Thursday evening with Howard and John Ford’s The Dead 2: India, a sequel to their previous Africa-set zombie flick. To be honest, it wasn’t the most auspicious start to the weekend. A zombie epidemic reaches the Asian subcontinent and American engineer Nicholas (Joseph Millson) attempts to cross the country to reunite with his Indian girlfriend Ishani (Meenu Mishra), aided only by plucky orphan boy Javed (Anand Gopal). I didn’t catch The Dead, so the novelty of watching a Zombie film set anywhere other than Middle America (or Crouch End) was not lost on me.
The various locations around rural India are occasionally used rather well. Nicolas’s introductory scene is a slow pull out from extreme close up to a panoramic shot of him dangling from a wind turbine, which works really well and there several nicely implemented vistas. Much...
