‘Milk & Serial’ – The New Found Footage Horror Movie You Can’t-Miss This Year

The success of recent horror movies Milk & Serial by Jordan Peele, Zach Cregger, and David Gordon Green proves that comedians can excel in delivering intense, spine-chilling experiences. With the anticipation building around “Saturday Night Live” alum Kyle Mooney’s upcoming Y2K film, it’s clear that the comedy-to-horror transition in Hollywood is thriving. We’re more than ready to see what other thrills cross-genre creators like these can bring to the table.

Enter Milk & Serial, a found footage horror movie that debuted on YouTube this month, brought to us by the rising comedy duo That’s a Bad Idea, composed of film-school friends Curry Barker and Cooper Tomlinson. Written and directed by Barker and produced by Tomlinson, the film follows a popular social media comedy team, portrayed by the duo, whose lives spiral out of control after a birthday prank for their channel goes wrong.

This horribal movie evokes the spirit of unconventional found-footage horror movies like The Dirties, Spree, and Toad Road. It showcases Barker and Tomlinson’s unique talents both behind and in front of the camera. From the opening scene, their passion for horror and knack for twisted DIY storytelling is on full display. While the plot may seem like a typical “influencer horror” story, stands out with its inventive approach and authenticity, often elusive in the found footage genre.

Over the past decade, That’s a Bad Idea has built a loyal following with sharp, absurd sketches reminiscent of Tim Robinson and Please Don’t Destroy. Although they’ve dabbled in horror shorts before, Milk & Serial marks their first feature-length entry into the genre.

If this has sparked your curiosity, you can watch Milk & Serial in its entirety on the duo’s YouTube channel. Be sure to join the conversation in the comments and share your favorite indie horror and found footage gems!
