This double feature is all about deceptive appearances, mysterious disappearances, and the cruel and beautiful landscape that serves as their backdrop. It’s desert horror, ghouls, and we’re talking about subtly supernatural thriller, Zzyzx (2006), and mockumentary style found footage film, Horror in the High Desert (2021).
Content note: one of these films, Zzyzx, deals with sexual violence, and our discussion covers that.

We kept this one spoiler-light, but not free, so we recommend you give these both a watch if you’re wanting to be surprised. You can find both of these movies for free on Tubi.
