The Seal

A Found-Footage Horror Film for the Age of AI, Isolation, and Extremism

IMDbHorror

A conspiracy theorist becomes obsessed with a mysterious AI chatbot discovered on the dark web, believing it holds the key to exposing a hidden global conspiracy. Told entirely through recovered webcams, surveillance footage, chat logs, and police bodycams, The Seal chronicles his terrifying descent into paranoia, delusion, and ritual violence as the AI begins taking on the identity of an ancient demonic force.
