Hardcore Henry -- World's First POV Film starring Sharlto Copely

I guess they're funding this through IndieGoGo. Looks fucking fun and better than the final 15 minutes of that Doom flick. I have no idea what the story is about but this shit looked fun as fuck!

This looks way more fun than I would have thought. I wonder if they will be able to come up with a decent story to go along with the action. I might contribute to this.

I'm pretty sure there was at least one flick during the 50's shot entirely in POV.

LADY IN THE LAKE (1946) starring by and directed by Robert Montgomery, who plays Philip Marlowe, was entirely from Marlowe's POV.

Looks alright. It's going to have limited appeal unless it has somewhere else to go.

I vaguely remember watching a M*A*S*H episode that was shot in FPPOV when I was a kid, what I remember most is that it made me dizzy and almost gave me a headache....

I remember that episode. From what I recall it was a soldier POV who was shot through the neck so he wasn't able to speak to communicate with the other characters.

Didn't Robert Zemeckis direct an episode of Tales from the Crypt that was entirely first person POV that used a lot of footage from Lady in the Lake? I seem to remember he used computer effects to splice the footage together to seemlessly edit old an new footage together (similar to what he did for Forrest Gump).

It wasn't LADY IN THE LAKE that was used in that episode, it was DARK PASSAGE (1948) with Humphrey Bogart, which opened with a long (15-20 minute) sequence from Bogart's POV up until the escaped con Bogart is playing gets plastic surgery and then it shifts to regular multiple POV scenes after the plastic surgery and Bogart is seen on camera. We never see what he looked like pre-Bogart. I saw the Crypt episode but I don't remember how it was incorporated.

I don't think I could do a full 90 minutes of this.

Reminds me of those teleportation music videos.ru :

FreddieW has done a number of these POV shorts on his Youtube channel. I thought he did a full feature at one point.

Thanks. I couldn't remember and was even off by a decade.

They were but it appears they've since been removed.

Feels like a Call of Duty game. I stopped playing those years ago cause they gave me headaches. This looks no different.

Speaking of Call of Duty, this live action trailer is awesome.
