Oren Peli’s long-awaited (and delayed) directorial follow-up to Paranormal Activity was eventually released for a one-weekend run at Alamo Drafthouse theaters before being dumped to video-on-demand platforms, though the found footage film has found an unlikely surge in interest on streaming platforms in recent years.

From the director of The Adjustment Bureau, this misguided fictionalization of the events surrounding a private fight between Bruce Lee and Wong Jack-man was a critical pariah and a massive box office bomb upon its theatrical bow in 2016.

The controversial follow-up to Rob Savage’s 2020 horror sensation Host, this slice of screen-based scare fare follows a livestreaming right-wing conspiracy theorist and her former bandmate after a series of unexpected events pit them against a gun-toting sociopath and a mysteriously violent old woman on the outskirts of London.
