Major Spoilers Poll of the Week: Reality footage horror flick edition

This week’s Major Spoilers Poll of the Week is brought to you by Fangoria Presents – a new film series selected by Fangoria for Horror Fans!  Cast your vote, and then use the comment section below to share your thoughts, with the best comment winning a DVD of one of the films in the series as seen on the Fangoria Presents website!  (While anyone can share their thoughts and cast their vote, the contest is open to U.S. residents only!)

Reality horror films have been around for decades now, with the Blair Witch Project still sending Matthew diving under the covers the instant the snot rocket scene appears. There have been a number of franchises that have used the found footage gimmick to put the scare into audiences, and get that well timed jump of fright.
