Through analysis of key films, the book explores the effects that the diegetic camera technique used in such films can have on the cognition of viewers. It further examines the way in which mediated realism is constructed in the films in order to attempt to make audiences either (mis)read the footage as non-fiction, or more commonly to imagine that the footage is non-fiction. Films studied include \u003ci\u003eThe Blair Witch Project, Rec, Paranormal Activity, Exhibit A, Cloverfield, Man Bites Dog, The Last Horror Movie\u003c\/i\u003e, \u003cem\u003e \u003c\/em\u003e\u003cem\u003eNoroi: The Curse\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eAutohead\u003c\/em\u003e and\u003ci\u003e Zero Day\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis book will be of key interest to Film Studies scholars with research interests in horror and genre studies, cognitive studies of the moving image, and those with interests in narration, realism and mimesis.
