The Reenactment

Intrigued by the inclusion of Tony Todd, I popped it on and I'm glad I did. Once you make it through some of the earlier, sillier scenes and the too clever by half nods to Unsolved Mysteries and 90s nostalgia in general (though Todd does shine embracing his comedic side as the host of the show), you see the film really find it's footing as a meditation (albeit an exceptionally violent one) on generational trauma and the commodification of tragedy by the mass media. Ford definitely shows some chops for a first time filmmaker, as there's a tastefulness to the technical aspects of the film that's unfortunately lacking in the script and some of the performances. I'd highly recommend this as a fun indie horror film, and a must see if you're a Tony Todd fan.
