Ghostwatch
Directed by Lesley Manning
A TV reporter investigates a haunted house in this classic British “documentary”, which was originally broadcast in the UK on Halloween in 1992. As experts in the BBC studio discuss supernatural phenomena, reporter Sarah Greene waits patiently for proof of a poltergeist named Pipes, whose bad behavior grows bolder throughout the evening. GHOSTWATCH freaked out gullible viewers across the UK (no warning indicated the special was scripted), leading to controversy, lawsuits and a devoted cult following who continue to search the doc for hidden glimpses of the ghoul.

Considering the year Ghostwatch was released, it sets itself apart as a innovative form of cinema. Top shelf, those Brits i tell ya….
Wish I saw this when it first aired
Outstanding.
Very boring.
An absolute masterpiece of play with form and content.
