Yes - there are! - There Are Monsters review by NP
A found footage film that uses deceptively simple effects to convince you that, yes, there are monsters. The characters featured are sardonic but appealing enough to carry a story in which things are noticeably 'not quite right'. Often the aberrations are subtle enough not to be immediately noticed ... but they're there.
Director, writer and producer Jay Dahl seems not to have directed anything since 2019's 'Halloween Party'. His skill here is demonstrating a cavalcade of understated horrors that gets under the skin of our protagonists. Once you notice something, you can't un-notice it.
Featuring apparitions not dissimilar to those seen in Aphex Twin's video for 'Come to Daddy' (1997), this gets 8 out of 10 from me.
