The Stone Tape is an intriguing blend of drama, horror, and mystery that really leans into its eerie atmosphere. The pacing takes its time, especially in establishing the unsettling nature of the old Victorian house the team occupies. The performances, particularly by Jill Greeley, evoke a sense of genuine dread as the line between the scientific and supernatural blurs. What sets it apart are the practical effects and the use of sound to create tension—like an audio ghost of sorts, which is thematically tied to the whole recording medium project. This film captures that 70s vibe of slow-burn horror, making it a fascinating watch for those who appreciate layered stories with a haunting edge.
The Stone Tape has had a somewhat limited release history, mainly being seen through TV broadcasts and various home media editions. Its scarcity in physical formats has piqued collector interest, with early VHS and DVD copies becoming sought after. There’s something about its distinctively atmospheric storytelling and practical effects that resonate with collectors who appreciate the era’s unique take on horror.
