Load of rubbish!!

It's simply great fun, a winsome film and an occasionally over-the-top luxury fantasy that never flags.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

This was a pretty good horror flick, but as the case with most horror movies on IMDB, it's rated far lower than it should be. I came into this movie with low expectations, expecting something very silly that's trying too hard to be scary (considering the social media theme), but that was not the case. This movie had genuinely creepy, skin-crawling visuals and a pretty good mystery of a plot going into the backstory of the killer. Although the scariest aspect of the movie was not the visuals, but rather the trapped, helpless feeling of being forced to post disturbing things to your social media and being unable to stop it. It's the modern nightmare. A tainted social image that ruins your goals, dreams, and relationships is terrifying and I almost wish the movie focused on that rather than piecing together the life of the killer. If the killer's life was more of a mystery and the movie was a Black Mirror-esque commentary on the potential dangers of social media, that would've turned a good horror film into a great one.

FRIEND REQUEST is another pointless, pathetic slice of teen horror with various 21st century twists on an age-old theme. It stars Alycia Debnam-Carey, of FEAR THE WALKING DEAD fame, playing another gormless and pouty character as unsympathetic as they come. The Facebook-focused storyline is about a malignant friend whose suicide begins a plot of murderous revenge, but it's all done in a cheap, digital style which makes it horrible to watch. Pity poor old William Moseley, who went from THE CHRONICLES OF NARNIA to this tedious addition to the wave of Internet horror flicks that they never should have bothered making.

This movie goes to show that you should never become friends that are loaners, unusual, different, artistic, dark, etc. you were always become victims of abuse, rape, murder from those that are different from the rest of society.

The internet will always have it's dark edges and the surface where friends and people you care about exist and can keep in touch with you and your life. This movie simply starts off happy and relaxing until you begin to experience the true supernatural haunting a popular college girl. She is haunted only because a single girl whom she lies to, commits to such rage and vengeance against Laura. No spoilers it is very depressing and leaves the audience feeling just as helpless as the main protagonist's life is just erased. It's not a movie where you will leave with a happy face on and I urge not to watch it's punishing.
