YMMV / Found Footage 3D

• Unintentional Period Piece: While released in 2016, the film inadvertently dates itself to 2014 in a few ways. The plot revolves around the making of the first 3D found footage film; in real life, Paranormal Activity: The Ghost Dimension took that crown in 2015. Scott Weinberg, the journalist interviewing the cast and crew, is also stated to come from FEARnet, a website and cable network which shut down in late 2014 after being acquired by Comcast^note FEARnet was a partnership between Comcast, Lionsgate, and Sony Pictures; the latter two pulled out in 2014 and left Comcast in full control. and merged with the TV network Chiller. The opening crawl also explicitly establishes the Film Within a Film Spectre of Death 3D as taking place in 2014.
