The Poughkeepsie Tapes would lodge in the memory but its impact is fleeting. That’s because, for all its skill, it has nothing to say and no real story to tell.

A horrific gem. One of the great found footage pictures and indeed the faux documentary genre.

The Poughkeepsie Tapes isn't a classic, but it's an engaging horror mockumentary nonetheless.

The movie thinks too diminutively of human intelligence, even by horror film standards.
