SIMILAR PICKS / A PERSONAL CONNECTION
01
Why this pick
Like The Possession of Michael King, it uses a documentary crew and increasingly distressed home footage to make a supernatural investigation feel intimate, grimy, and dangerously believable.
02
Why this pick
Its skeptical filmmaker-led setup, raw handheld realism, and steadily tightening demonic dread closely echo Michael King’s attempt to confront belief through a recorded experiment.
03
Why this pick
This faux-documentary approaches possession through interviews, archival-style footage, and institutional unease, preserving the rational-versus-unexplainable tension central to Michael King.
04
Why this pick
A handheld investigation into exorcism gives it a similarly immediate, low-light, confrontational energy, with faith and skepticism colliding under escalating supernatural pressure.
05
Why this pick
A documentary framing device follows spiritual possession with unnerving patience before turning intensely chaotic; it shares Michael King’s sense that recording the phenomenon only draws the viewer closer.

01 / THE STORY
Documentary maker Michael King does not believe in God, the devil, or any other supernatural existence. His wife Samantha believes the opposite. For many years she has visited medium Beverly for spiritual assistance. Samantha was killed in an accident in the United States, while Michael had wanted to travel with her in Europe at the time. Beverly, however, "foresaw" a major breakthrough in Samantha's attempt to become an actress and advised her to stay in America. Michael confronts Beverly with this. He asks her to admit that she plays false drama and has no contacts with anything at all. Beverly consoles him, but then asks him to leave.
