Tape 407: The Mesa Experiment is a 2012 found-footage horror film.
The film opens with two teenagers flying from New York to Los Angeles on New Year's Eve. Their nightmare begins when their plane hits extreme turbulence mid-flight. The relentless weather attack causes panic and terror amongst the passengers until the plane ultimately crashes in a remote government testing area. The handful of survivors from the crash, bloody and disoriented, are then insistently pursued in the darkness by unknown predators that are part of the government's top-secret Mesa Experiment.
It's also known as Area 407 in the United States.
The film contains the following tropes:
- Everything's Better With Dinosaurs: Inverted by the creatures of the film
- Expy: The plot of the film shares similiarities with an unused film script of Jurassic Park 3.
- Found Footage Films
- Kill'Em All
- Nothing Is Scarier: You never really get to see good glimpses of the beasts, but rather you simply hear its noises and shrieks.
- Raptor Attack
- Stock Dinosaurs: Raptors, to be precise
- Super-Persistent Predator: They're raptors, what the hell do you expect?
- Trailers Always Spoil: The trailers for the film spoil the fact that the predators hunting the characters are actually raptors.
- X Meets Y: The film is a cross among Quarantine, The Grey and Jurassic Park.
