I purchased this camera while traveling. There are no markings, and I cannot

get the film door open to see if there is anything that can help! After working with Chat GPT for a while, I got "Wollensak Eight‑type Automatic Triple‑Turret Standard‑8 movie camera." Thank you in advance.

Film door: Flip up the half-circle and twist to open the door.

Film available here:

 
Can we see the base - where there is probably a tripod socket? There might be some badging there. There might be some insignia as well in the shadowed parts of the images you show.
I don't think it is Kodak or Super 8. It might be 16mm but probably not.
Some version of 8mm I think.
Kino has it right about opening the film door.
 
This might be the Revere Eyematic CA-2 or CA-4, both 8mm movie cameras from the late 1950s, with a missing nameplate at the bottom front. The difference between the CA-2 vs CA-4 was that the CA-4 took a film magazine rather than spool film. The lenses would be 13mm 9mm and 32mm. (But there should be a Fade control on the ride side, near the front of the body.)
