Maybe The Awakener (1969) can be removed? It doesn't have any ratings.

FYC: Dark Passage (1947) I think several titles on your list only use the technique briefly. This one at least uses it extensively.

@Peter_pbn, I fully agree that Dark Passage (1947) [https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0039302/] belongs on the list. Bogart plays a man convicted of murdering his wife who escapes from prison in order to prove his innocence. Bogart finds that his features are too well-known, and is forced to seek illicit backroom plastic surgery. The entire pre-knife part of the film is shot from a Bogart's-eye-view, with the viewer seeing the fugitive for the first time as he starts to recuperate from the operation in the apartment of a sympathetic young artist (Bacall) for whom he soon finds affection. But what he's really after is revenge.—Mark Thompson https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0039302/trivia/?item=tr1744639 Humphrey Bogart's complete uncovered face is not seen clearly until 62 minutes into the movie, when his character finally removes his bandages and looks into a mirror. All previous scenes with the character are either shown from his point of view or have his face obscured with shadows or bandages.

Alien Origin seems to be just one of many found footage movies.
