8213: Gacy House
In 2004, a film crew set out to find the ghost of John Wayne Gacy. They did.
Directed by Anthony Fankhauser
Produced by The Asylum
A found-footage horror film that exploits real serial killer history to manufacture paranormal dread, trading psychological depth for jump-scares and atmosphere.
A group of paranormal investigators enter the abandoned home of paedophile and serial killer John Gacy, hoping to find evidence of paranormal activity. Upon entering the house they set-up cameras throughout the abandoned house while going room to room with hand-held cameras, performing séance's and asking for John Gacy to come forward. As the evening progresses it seems the investigators are not prepared for the horror still within the house.
