A term used to describe a bootleg movie that was recording in a theater using a hand held camera. Generally the camera shakes a bit due to the instability of a hand held camera.

Most Shakey Cams end up on the internet within a week of the movie being released in theaters.

Generally the quality is marginal and the sound is terrible. The other issue with the Shakey Cam is the occasional bathroom break when someone in front gets up to use the bathroom...
Shakey Cam.. for those that are to damn cheap to pay for a movie and to inpatient for the DVD release to hit Bit Torrent...
