🎙 Episode 7 – “The Conjuring Tapes”: When Found Footage Finds You

Ever wonder what would happen if you popped in an old VHS… and saw yourself staring back? This week, we’re diving headfirst into the cursed, claustrophobic world of The Conjuring Tapes, the indie found footage anthology from Robert Livings and Randy Nundlall Jr. that turns déjà vu into pure dread.

Two women cleaning out a late friend’s belongings discover a stack of unmarked tapes — but these aren’t just ghostly home videos. Each one shows them living out different horrors: séance gone wrong, influencer ghost hunts, cult encounters… all captured in unsettlingly crisp 4:3 footage. The question isn’t just what’s on the tapes — it’s why they’re in them.

We’ll break down how stars Brenda Yanez and Samantha Laurenti seamlessly shift between alternate selves, why the shaky handheld visuals feel more voyeuristic than chaotic, and how the film’s slow-burn pacing pays off in psychological paranoia rather than gore. Plus, we’ll talk about that nesting-doll narrative that folds reality in on itself like an M.C. Escher nightmare.

So grab your popcorn (and maybe a crucifix) as we hit play on The Conjuring Tapes — the horror anthology that might just make you afraid of your own reflection on tape.
