The Dark Watchers

The Dream is the Veil

IMDb

A documentary follows two park rangers as they investigate an abandoned vehicle deep in the remote forest. Their search leads to unsettling objects and a strange young man with no memory of who he is or how he got there. As day turns into night the rangers find themselves ensnared in a growing analog nightmare—one that is controlled by the all seeing Dark Watchers.
