With reality shows like Big Brother becoming the norm at the turn of the millennium, it wasn't long before someone decided to make a horror movie about the concept. The 2002 film, My Little Eye, centres around a group of five young people who must stay in a secluded house for six months in order to win $1 million. If any of them leave, none of them get the money.

With days left before the contestants win the prize, a man called Travis, played by Bradley Cooper, stumbles into the house seeking shelter. Even though Travis' appearance is brief, this is when the premise takes a massive turn. After the group tell Travis about how they are a part of a reality tv show, he alerts them that he's never heard of it.

Since the group were under the impression that the contest was the biggest show on the internet, they realise that something is horribly wrong. My Little Eye starts creepy but it is at this point where it becomes a nerve-wracking psychological horror.

By the time Cooper found fame seven years later in The Hangover, even his biggest fans probably forgot his appearance in this film.
