Great indie horror!
was alright
Terrific psychological thriller. Entertaining commentary on social media, albeit an alternative form of social media interaction. Will keep you wondering what will happen throughout.
I think it says a lot about the kinds of people who subscribe to Shudder that this has one of the rare 5-skull average ratings. I enjoyed it a lot. I found it relatable in some small ways. I think anyone else who does will be disturbed by that. But yeah, funny that this community-but-not-community (since, I mean, it's not like any of us ever actually interact) all found this so impactful. "Funny".
