Sinister - An upcoming movie that looks...familiar...
YouTube: Link
Maybe I'm just crazy, but did the description of the Whatchcallit Demon sound exactly like Slenderman? Between the "targets children" thing, the "creepy Where's Waldo" thing, the "monster lives inside the footage" thing, the "I found a bunch of tapes" thing, and the focus on trees/hangings...I feel like this is someone trying to make a feature length Slenderman movie without actually using Slenderman.

Yeah I noticed that too.
It sounds really interesting, I hope it doesn't wind up sucking like most recent horrors.

Yep. Everything they mention would make a killer Slender-series. Living inside the images. Footage from a previous victim. Kid victims. And that photo that moves on his screen when he isn't looking... some series should steal THAT right the hell now.

Let's just steal every new idea they use themselves instead of getting mad about it

Looks pretty fun. Though it suffers from that common ailment of (possibly) showing too much of the plot in the trailer.
And yeah, that's exactly how I'd have made a cinematic Slenderman film.

If you ask me, the antagonist looks like a cross between Darth Sidious and Slendy. Rise Darth Slendious!!!!
Oh and I manage to capture the Operator Symbol:

So this is a particularly powerful proxy attacking them?

Maybe its Redlight's introverted cousin.

You know, I might be crazy, but I think the crossed out circle is usually something that ends up on the empty filler filmstock at the beginning and end of a filmstrip. I'm fairly certain that it's a conventional film editing shorthand symbol.
Of course, here they seem to be wanting to pull it into that weird demon symbol thingy whatever.

The operator symbol shows up EVERYWHERE. There was a really amusing thread a while back where someone realized it represents trees on landscaping diagrams, and in response an older poster posted all the other things it refers to and represents.
