Love the premise for this one and the
poster is creepy as hell. THE
POUGHKEEPSIE TAPES is playing at the Tribeca Film
Festival this weekend and next and from what I am seeing if you're
able to make it to a screening I would run to it as quickly as
possible.
We've even got our hands on a trailer
for this little ditty. Click here to check it out right now.
So, what's it all about you ask, got ya
covered. Here is the official word from those involved as well as a
listing of those fore mentioned Tribeca screenings:
John Erick Dowdle
(writer/director) and Drew Dowdle (producer) announce their second
feature, THE POUGHKEEPSIE TAPES.
Throughout
the 1990s, a serial killer terrorized upstate New York. After a
decade-long crime spree conducted largely under the radar of law
enforcement, the killer left behind the most disturbing collection of
evidence homicide detectives had ever seen hundreds of homemade
videotapes that chronicle the stalking, abduction, murder, and
disposal of his victims.
The Poughkeepsie Tapes
examines these horrific tapes at length: what they reveal about the
killer, why they were made, and how FBI profilers have used them to
better understand violent, psychopathic behavior. The Poughkeepsie
Tapes combines interviews surrounding the devastating impact of
the Water Street Butcher with shocking footage from the tapes
themselves.
The Poughkeepsie Tapes documents the
actual experience of encountering a deranged serial killer. Never
before has an audience been exposed so directly to terror so real.
For the first time, the public will see the horrifying images that
FBI profilers have studied for years.
