Plot

A horror filmmaker sets out to investigate the culture of underground horror movies and stumbles upon a local legend, a mysterious character who films people without their knowledge and may have sinister intentions. Through interviews and research, the filmmaker uncovers the unsettling background of the legend and its obsessive followers. As the investigation deepens, the line between reality and fiction blurs, revealing unsettling truths about the nature of fear and voyeurism. The filmmaker becomes increasingly entangled with the eerie figure, leading to disturbing discoveries and rising paranoia.

Gradually, the filmmaker's own safety is compromised as the legend's influence permeates their life, and they must confront the ramifications of delving into such dark territory. The documentary style of the investigation adds an unnerving layer of authenticity, amplifying the tension. Early interviews and scenes begin to take on new implications, hinting at a deeper, more dangerous reality behind the horror genre they sought to explore. This journey into the macabre universe explores themes of obsession and the thin veil between observer and participant in the creation of horror.
