The Poughkeepsie Tapes Vol. Explanation. I Demand One.

From the WIkipedia page:
The Poughkeepsie Tapes is a faux semidocumentary horror film directed by John Erick Dowdle.
[edit]Plot

A serial killer obsessively documents his career in carnage in this pseudo-documentary thriller. When police raid a house in upstate New York, they discover a profoundly disturbing record of one man's ugly crimes. Investigators find over 2,400 hours of videotape shot by the killer which present a visual record of his murders in all their horrifying details. Both state and federal law enforcement teams sift through the gruesome images, looking for clues of the slayer's identity, the identity of his victims, and where he could possibly have gone. But repeated viewings of the material reveals little beyond the terrible facts of the crimes, and as the authorities comb through the madman's images, they find the tapes have had a disquieting effect on them.
The movie has some similarities to Poughkeepsie serial killer Kendall Francois, who murdered women but did not film their deaths.

Its a known fact that HE didnt tape his murders, but are there tapes of someone else, with the same kind of trend in murders who did? quitepossible right?

you watch the vid??
 
so is the movie about the Kendall Francois because he is the one who killed all the hookers but he never video taped any of the killings. Also i dont think thevideos in the movie are the actual footage from the real tapes they found.

It sounds like the same situation with the Texas Chainsaw Massacre stories....The movie and the dude it was based on were sooo far apart in howthe story was depicted
 
ok here is real info about movie.

http://www.veidt.com/?p=188

The film is a faux documentary about the hundreds of video tapes discovered in an abandoned home, that document the decade long career of "The WaterStreet Butcher", a mysterious serial killer operating out of Poughkeepsie, NY, as recorded by the killer. It's a fascinating concept for a horrorfilm, and based on the trailer, there appears to be enough of an element of fantasy and stylization to distinguish it from full-on psuedo snuff, like theAugust Underground series, and mysogenistic torture porn like Captivity.

it is a fake documentary.
it is going on premise of like blair witch and cloverfield.

that is exactly it. all those videos are fake there were never videos. they are just using pk along with kendal francois to make a movie. they are saying it isbased on true events/story becaue there was a guy driving around picking up women and killing them. He only killed 8 by the way not over 30 as i stated in myprevious post. Sorry Kendal!
