One of the first major found footage horror movies, this Italian film is infamous for its brutality and graphic violence, even though it has social commentary. Directed by Ruggero Deodato, the movie is about a team of anthropologists who travel to the Amazon to rescue a crew of filmmakers who went missing. Shot in the found footage style, the movie is tense, terrifying, and a cult classic.
