10 More Horror Movies Where The Villain Survives

There are many serial killers within the found-footage horror genre, but few of them compare to the depravity the Poughkeepsie Tapes' monster puts to the screen. The acts he performs in this underground horror are so twisted that you'd better have a sick bag by your side when you watch them. 

The Water Street Butcher, also known as Edward Carver, is a killer with a dramatic flair. He puts his victims through awful acts of torture, and includes a level of showmanship in his work - including lavish costumes and acts - that make his murder tapes look like Cirque du Soleil. 

The entire movie has you hoping and praying that he will finally get caught. But that moment never comes, as he completely eludes the police and continues his spree of horror. There is no justice in this film. He's simply too good at what he does. 

Ultimately, The Poughkeepsie Tapes spells out the horrifying message that there is pure evil in this world, and most people are powerless to stop it.
