I found all of these social media, Skype call, website, and etc horror movies to be unintentionally hilarious. It's like...get offline and you'll be fine. It's not like the ones where someone is for some reason in the middle of nowhere with no means of self defense or way to call someone but they're being followed.

[@nozoto]

The rise of internet also means the way to get formerly very little known knowledge available with a couple of clicks. Horror draws impact from what comes from the poorly known and the share of doubt coming with it. There's countlessly more suspense in a retro horror movie, with a character who has to find a phone asap to warn someone threatened, for instance. This state of instant transmission of information has greatly harmed the genre, in my opinion. That's why producers have to imagine new convoluted movie concepts, in order to keep this flame alive. Sad that the price is to have characters even dumber than in the old amateur exploitation movies.

[@Sean_Bird]

Ah, this is a classic. The review, not the movie. I actually watched this movie with a family member a couple years ago, and wow was it bad. It was a censored version too, so one of the lines in the never-have-I-ever scene made me break down laughing.

[@jamesoblivion]

In retrospect, Phelan was clearly trying to say 'A GORON!' in the stinger outtake.

[@gracekim25]

EH😂

[@liambrowne3370]

Oh my gosh, I completely forgot about "I Know Who KZbin'd Last Summer." I used to use that one all the time when referring to current technology trying to be relevant horror films. Still as funny as it was in 2015, well done!

[@SsnakeBite]

This review is literally the only thing redeeming that movie's existence. It baffles me that so many people fell for the gimmick and insist that it's _so_ creative and not yet another garbage found footage film with agressively hateable character, the likes of which we've seen a thousand times before. And Hell, it's not even like using some kind of online call for horror is a wholy original idea itself. Off the top of my head, I'm immediately thinking of that one _V/H/S_ segment which did it much better IMO, not to mention myriads of KZbin videos and web series. Also, if y'all like the idea of a story told entirely through online interactions, but would also like to see it done well, with characters you care about, and that actually makes a strong point about the influence of digital media on our lives, for the better and for worse, I highly recommend _Searching._ It's not horror, more like a crime thriller, but it's sooooo freaking good. One of the best films of 2018 IMO.

[@TheSmart-CasualGamer]

As someone who feels physically ill when he sees digital video glitches, this is definitely a horror movie for me. Not in the way they wanted, but still.

You are, and always will be, *the best!* Stay amazing, dear Phelous.❤️

“Laura got slightly wet from the rain! She’s completely useless now! DEEEEEEHHHH” The old man’s comment is what was truely the final straw

[@Wnick1996]

Honestly, at this rate, Facebook is about to become a ghost. A horror movie about that would be much more scary

[@tyrongkojy]

Apparently a LOT of people rate films with likable characters that die VERY low rather often. That's why we keep getting films where NOONE in the cast is good, but instead people you WANT to see die. Some even walk out or ask for their money back when the likable ones die. People are stupid.

[@jemofthe80s18]

No WONDER I didn't find this when I searched for it recently if it's UNLISTED! I should've asked you if there was one before--why you gotta play me like that, Phelous, you're my favorite;) When I first saw it through this one channel that made the screen look like a home theater, the deliberate glitching made me think that the channel was messed up. I really like the Skype call concept when YOU guys are doing it...

[@AstroTom]

[@TheMarshmelloKing]

This is yet another film which really shows the profound understanding hollywood screenwriters and execs have of teenagers and youth/internet culture. I've seldom ever seen such an accurate representation of high schoolers on the big screen, bravo

So a few weeks ago when I was at my dads house we were having homemade pizza (not homemade pizza dough) for dinner, and dad told me the pizza might be a bit soggy at the bottom. And me who had been waiting for an opportunity to say this for a while said “Wait. Did you say it was wet? It’s completely useless now”

[@BugsyFoga]

Always up to rewatch these classic reviews.

[@SwiftNimblefoot]

Teen Wolf is actually not a bad show. And I think this was a sort of 4th wall break, since the gal playing Blaire is the werecoyote Malia Tate on that show! Btw, I wonder how the hacker guy died... his webcam fell down under his desk and he looks down there, sees the internet ghost just chumming along, and stares at her until she I guess kills him... somehow? How does an incorporeal internet ghost get out of the net, anyway? Don't they need a portal for that, like when the Turtles had to save Splinter bytes? :D

[@ObtuseMori]

It took me a stupidly long time to realise it was the same actress, every time I watched a review of this movie I just kept thinking "hmm, she looks familiar" until I finally looked up who plays Blaire 🙈

[@PrimeTF]

It honestly feels like the creators were bullied a lot as kids and *this* was their wish fulfillment.

[@LucyLioness100]

A movie where all the characters are just terrible people and you want to see them pay. Although in fairness to the writers and producers, it’s a sad truth that what happens to Laura has been a horrible reality for too many teens and young adults especially if you’re familiar with Audrey Potts or Megan Meiers

[@jblask2]

I actually think the laura slamming the laptop shut was actually kinda clever for a jump scare. I mean... it wouldn't have fixed any of the movie's many problems but I think its a clever close out.

Fun fact the reason why the Skype call is so glitchy was they used the glitch effects to hide the fact that there was transitions and cuts that's the only reason why the glitches are there so there are still scene transitions that's what the glitch effects are they were just used to hide them. I can tell you this as somebody who uses Skype almost every day this is not representative of how Skype is even the worst Skype calls would never glitch like this the worst that's ever happened to me is the audio cut out and then we had to hang up and redo the call.

The movie should've been written by people who knew how the internet worked.

[@misteryA555]

Skype calls dropping out is a great point, because if the movie wanted quiet moments for the girl and her boyfriend to text privately, they could have done so when the call cut out until everyone came back in But, to be honest, them muting the dialogue of her friends in the background is pretty low on my list of sins in this movie. It could easily be explained as main girl's perspective, and since she was focusing on the texts she blocked out her friend's voices. It's a movie, after all, we stretch the truth all the time to make the experience better. Not that the story in this movie is good enough to carry it....

[@kinnikufan]

Unfriended? More like Unphriended, am I right? You know, like other titles that got Phelousified? Good times, good times...

[@michaelstrong5383]

If you want to see a better film where it's in the POV of the main character's social media usage, I recommend *Searching.* It's such an underrated gem and it has you rooting for John Cho's character way more than anyone in Unfriended.

[@zmbdog]

13:30 While working in rural Alaska around the time this movie came out, I downloaded "Silent Night, Deadly Night" on Dec. 23 to show my roommate cuz he'd never seen it before. I had to start the download before going in to work, knowing it would take hours. It ended up being around 8 hours for a 902mb file. She's only getting a slightly higher speed than that! That's hilarious unless she's also in the Aleutian Islands sharing a wi-fi connection with a bunkhouse of 200+ people!

Afterwards I just wanted a movie that did something presented in a similar way but actually good. When I watched the movie "Searching", I finally got what I wanted. Completely different genre of movie, and actually really good, but with the same sort of "basically all on a computer screen".
