This is How Movies Should Be Made
At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

View MoreAn old-fashioned movie made with new-fashioned finesse.
View MoreI don't get all the hate, really. I thought it was very creative how they used a computer screen to show the story. Sure, it didn't have the most surprising story or surprising ending, but it was entertaining. Very entertaining. I can't really review the horror aspect of it since I practically never get horrified or scared while watching horror movies, but it definitely had its own charm. The way the computers are being hacked- it was not even close to how computers are hacked in real life. At least, I guess so based on my own knowledge. I'm not a hacker. So if you can't stand such a flaw and if it would just annoy you the entire time instead of focusing on the movie itself- then it's probably better not to watch it at all. Other than that- if you're looking for some entertaining horror flick then go for it. This is a good way to spend your time. Trust me. I've seen enough terrible, bad, awful horror movies and this one is not one of them.
View MoreThis movie is newer to the horror genre, a supernatural killer, a bit cliche. But with it killing people online is pretty cool. I think this is creative, some people don't though.
View MoreSeriously, a horror movie centered around Skype? Give me a break. This is was another movie that I was drawn into by previews and I have to say that I regret it. I thought it was actually be somewhat enjoyable...but it was anything but. Sitting in front of the computer and chatting with your friends is not what I want to watch for 83 minutes. Do that on your own time. The camera that was probably used for this so-called film was most likely a webcam. Why? Nobody moves. Not a soul.Centered around a group of young people who are haunted by the suicide of another friend of theirs, they just talk and talk and talk about nothing. Even for 83 minutes, it still goes by painfully slow. This must have been very cheap to make because the death scenes are absolutely ridiculous and nobody moved from their respective spots. Um, isn't the idea of a movie to go from set to set and not sit in one place for the whole thing?I don't see how something like this could have even made a profit. As with so many others like it, there are no scares and you can almost see the deaths before they come because the unseen spirit of the dead friend is tormenting them into killing themselves. Just plain pathetic, if you ask me. I always love a good ghost story, but this was just out-and-out dreadful. No way around it. No special effects, pathetic dialogue, and it all takes place in front of a single computer. The actors who put this piece of film muck should be ashamed of themselves. Aren't there other worthy horror scripts that young people like this could pick up and audition for? Apparently not. I have never been a firm believer in Instant Messaging or Skype, particularly because I have next to no one to talk to on it. Um, there's something called a cell phone that you can talk to your friends on. You don't need Skype to have a conference call about next to nothing.
View MoreThe ending is so retarded like really jump scare? On the bright side the death scene is good. Undevelope story man that's the point where Blumhouse starting to suck. Yeah sure they release good flicks but still. This is the type of film I forgot to review until I saw a video relate to terrible flicks like this. The found footage type of film might suck like it depends what company it is. This film needs to be forgotten I think it did I don't now. Avoid this film as fast as you can.Rating: 3.5/10
