Area 407 (originally titled Tape 407: The Mesa Reserve)[1] is a 2012 American found footage science fiction horror film directed by Dale Fabrigar and Everette Wallin, starring Samantha Lester, James Lyons, Melanie Lyons and Abigail Schrader.[2]
The film was released to Video on Demand on 27 April 2012.[3]
William Goss of Film.com gave the film a rating of "D" and wrote "For some reason, the motivation of panic seems like a consistent rationale for ensemble hysteria in low-budget films like these, and I’d be able to forgive it all -- well, most of it -- if Area 407 had actually made with some effective frights or a more inventive mythology rather than amateurishly cashing in on this trend of handheld hokum."[4] Jinx of Dread Central gave the film a rating of 1.5 out of 5 and wrote, "As a traditionally shot narrative feature, this movie would’ve been terrible. As a found footage flick? It’s punishment."[5]
The film received a positive review in HorrorNews.net.[6]
