6. The Blair Witch Project
The Blair Witch Project has a lot to answer for. Without this ground-breaking film we wouldn’t have to put up with film after film of found footage crap.

All these things put together, somehow, produce a surprise hit making $240.5 million at the box office from a $22,000 budget. Because of this success, the found footage genre was born, here every idiot with a camera thought they could make millions. Which leads us swiftly to the next entry.
