description August Underground Overview
August Underground is a 2001 American found-footage horror film written and directed by Fred Vogel, who also appears as one of its killers. Styled as a degraded camcorder recording of serial killers at large, it simulates a snuff film with minimal plot and no conventional film trappings, which earned it a notorious reputation in extreme-horror circles. Vogel's company Toetag Pictures produced the film and two sequels, August Underground's Mordum (2003) and August Underground's Penance (2007).
