10. Milk & Serial

Milk & Serial knows how to start with a bang, which is remarkable considering the indie hit was made for a measly $800.

This found-footage B-movie centres around roommates, Milk and Seven, who run an online prank channel. When Seven organises a birthday party for Milk, things take a dark turn when a guest shoots one of their friends dead. However, the murder is exposed as a prank, which Milk takes in his stride.

When somebody knocks on the door, Milk wonders if it's the landlord or the cops. But when they open the door, their drunk neighbour bursts in and leers at the guests before storming out. Although Seven and the others are spooked, Milk scoffs at them, believing it's another gag.

Due to the roommates' dark sense of humour and obsession with one-upping each other, it's impossible to tell whether the neighbour poses a real threat or not, especially when he continues to appear. And just when it looks like the mystery is revealed, another curveball is thrown in, then another and another.

Even though the initial fake-out demonstrates nothing is as it seems, Milk & Serial is sure to repeatedly catch viewers off guard.
