  • Searching (2018)
    Oct 6 2025

    The screen is life! The found footage genre infects MacOS this week with a truly horrific story of parenting, grief, and, of course, screens!!

    Is John Cho the most oblivious father in movie history? Or is the internet a terrible place that preys on society’s most vulnerable youths? Probably a little of both… but hey, at least we still had Addicting Games Dot Com!

    Next week, we fall even deeper into the screen abyss for Rob Savage’s HOST (2020). Join the conversation on our Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx and get more Eye of the Duck on our Patreon show, After Hours https://www.patreon.com/EyeoftheDuckPod

  • One Cut of the Dead (2017)
    Sep 29 2025
    There’s meta, and then there’s a movie thats so self-referential it basically takes place inside a Russian nesting doll. It’s the INCEPTION of the found footage genre!This week we’re getting to the center of a very, very crunchy tootsie pop. Another remarkable low-budget success story, ONE CUT is the type of movie that makes you want to pick up a camera and go shoot something… or behead some zombies. Either way, it’s inspiring stuff!!Next week we’re returning to the (nightmare) world of screenlife with Aneesh Chaganty’s SEARCHING.

    Grandma’s home! It’s Shyamalan’s ticket out of director jail this week, we’re paying him a visit.

    There’s something seriously wrong with Becca and Tyler’s grandparents. And it may or may not involve dirty diapers, naked sleepwalking, and a very, very scary game of hide and seek.

    Next week, it’s the found footage zombie satire, ONE CUT OF THE DEAD (2017). Join the conversation on our Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx and get more Eye of the Duck on our Patreon show, After Hours https://www.patreon.com/EyeoftheDuckPod.

  • Creep (2015)
    Sep 15 2025

    Mark Duplass has entered the fray! And he is very, very creepy.

    This week we’re going deep on another found footage gem from the indie world. In what may be the only true “character study” of our series, Patrick Brice presents a new type of slasher… who simply won’t shut the fuck up.

    He’s Peachfuzz, and he may have therapy language, but he’s basically Psycho in a dollar store wolf costume. Run for your life!

    Next week, we are visiting our old friend M. Night Shyamalan for his big comeback, THE VISIT. Join the conversation on our Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx and get more Eye of the Duck on our Patreon show, After Hours https://www.patreon.com/EyeoftheDuckPod

  • The Sacrament (2014)
    Sep 8 2025

    It’s indie filmmaking Smash Bros this week! Ti West, Joe Swanberg, Kentucky Audley–everyone is here! And they’re all (probably) going to die!!

    This week we are joining a cult that’s definitely not a Jonestown ripoff, and getting everything on tape for our latest VICE documentary. Hopefully no one gets killed!

    Next week it’s another mumblecore favorite, Patrick Brice’s CREEP. Join the conversation on our Discord at https://discord.com/invite/RssDc3brsx and get more Eye of the Duck on our Patreon show, After Hours https://www.patreon.com/EyeoftheDuckPod

  • Europa Report (2013)
    Sep 1 2025

    We are so back….in space!! This week we’re blasting off towards Jupiter for a one-of-a-kind outer space found footage experience.

    Sebastián Cordero’s 2013 sci-fi surveillance thriller was NOT originally on our miniseries radar. But we could not resist the temptation of leaving this earth behind and spending some time amongst the (unforgiving) stars again. So here we are.

    Next week, we’re doing another 2010s pseudo-documentary, the Ti West cult horror THE SACRAMENT. Join the conversation on our Discord at and get more Eye of the Duck on our Patreon show, After Hours.
