The Vicious Brothers

The Profile

Canadian filmmaking duo known for found-footage horror, best known for the 2011 film Grave Encounters (released in some markets as ESP Fenomeni Paranormali).

The Vicious Brothers are a Canadian directing duo associated with found-footage horror and are credited with creating Grave Encounters (2011).

Review highlights a docu-film/found-footage approach with comparisons to REC and Paranormal Activity. The film starts slowly with weak acting and shaky camera work but is judged rewarding in the second half for its effects and scares. Overall a mixed reception: enjoyable for fans of the subgenre despite flaws.
