For those of you that haven't heard of this movie there's a very good reason for that. In a way it's refreshing to see an original movie but in saying that, there are some ideas that are just too ridiculous/stupid etc. to even be considered.For those of you that haven't heard of this movie there's a very good reason for that.

How this movie got funding I'll never understand. It's an hilariously terrible, so bad and not even close to scary, epic fail of a movie. Simply laugh out loud funny. Expand

UnfriendedIsBadFeb 9, 2016
This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Firstly, Unfriended is one of the worst films I have ever experienced. It's worse than the Paranormal Activity Franchise. The actors in unfriended are terrible, it feels as if they are just reading their words off a script that is in front of them. People are saying that the video call format for the film is creative. No. It isn't creative, it is because the film is low budget. Also, half the film is a mouse moving around the screen and clicking on random crap. If I wanted to spend half an hour watching a mouse move around a screen I would give my grandma a computer and watch her try to work it for half the film. The story plot is OK until you realise that the thing killing all the friends is actually the ghost of Laura. She committed suicide because of a video of her passed out on the floor with poo on her leg. Another thing I want to complain about is the unoriginality of the film. 'Lets play a game', I wonder what film we have heard that quote in... People that are saying that it's tense and scary properly get scared of their own shadow. Overall, the film is a waste of time and I don't recommend it to anyone under the age of 10. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. ---MAJOR SPOILERS ALERT!!!----
So I absolutely hated the movie....
It was so damn cheesy.
They stole the "You shouldn't of done that" Line from Ben Drowned (A very well written and renowned creepypasta) And the ending was so predictable; Everyone dies. The movie was glitchy and sometimes I felt like it froze. I felt like getting mad because I felt like it was MY computer freezing, and not Blair's. (The main characters name is Blair)
Also, the deaths were f***ing stupid. Jess gets a hair curler shoved down her throat, The fat dude gets his face shoved in a blender, Adam shoots himself in the face, Blair gets killed by demon (Laura Burns, the girl who killed herself because of a embarrassing video) Mitch stabs himself in the face with a giant knife (WHY THE F*** DOES HE HAVE A GIANT KNIFE BY HIS BED IN THE FIRST PLACE?!?!??!) And Val dies of major seizure. At one point, the characters get notes (Blair gets one that says "If you reveal this note, Adam will die" And Adam gets a note saying "If you reveal this note, Blair will die") And then Blair shows it and Adam dies. Wow. Great job, b*tch. You just killed your BEST F***ING FRIEND. God, these characters are IDIOTS.
I really hated it. Very much so. None of it made sense AT ALL! HOW THE HELL DOES A DEMON GHOST THING OPERATE A COMPUTER?! WHY DIDNT THEY JUST CLOSE SKYPE?! THE DEMONS TORMENTING THEM THROUGH SKYPE, SO ITS ONLY LOGICAL TO CLOSE SKYPE, FACEBOOK, ETC. WHY NOT JUST TERMINATE YOUR SKYPE AND FACEBOOK ACCOUNTS SO DEMON CANT TORMENT YOU ANYMORE???? OH, BECAUSE IN THEIR WORLD THAT DOESNT WORK BECAUSE THEIR F***ING STUPID!!!!

The movie was literally 45 minutes of talking and then 10 seconds of a death scene, and the dialogue was not interesting. Any buffoon with a computer could have made this movie for free, and likely even better than what it was. I had such high hopes for this movie, as it seemed like it could be cinematically intriguing, but it wore off, and the rest was just god awful. I would have demanded a refund had I left 15 minutes earlier, and I should have. Good luck if you go to see this because it is the worst movie that I have ever seen. I repeat, this is the worst movie that I have ever seen. Expand

With the idea of moving a horror film into social media and the internet, it gives you an opportunity to watch a film in a more realistic way. In fact, you can give it an even more realistic feeling in the comfort of your own home!

All you need is 5 other friends, and 5 laptops. Have you and 4 of your friends Skype each other while the 6th friend goes around and screws with everybody's computers, killing the other players one at a time with items you can find around the house! If you're the last one to die, then you've successfully watched the entire movie. Now all you need is 4 new friends and you can watch it again! It would be more exciting and scary to do that then sit and stare at a tv screen of a computer screen.

There is a long list of movie elements missing from this, and caused me a great deal of disappointment. Literally, there's 6 or 7 main characters. Anyone with a PalTalk, YouTube, Skype, Facebook, and understanding of QuickTime could have made this movie. There's zero talent there. The plot of the movie leaves a lot of predictability for the end outcome, right from the first few minutes! Probably worse than anything else is that I was hoping this might actually be a believable thriller about social media and internet technology that might teach a few people a good lesson. On this front, it failed miserably. This is total fiction. Unless you believe that ghosts are computer-savvy, or that people using social media could be talented enough to form a collective group of 6 individuals networking to coincidentally knock off 6 people that had something to do with the death of a teenager on the date of her anniversary, this is a waste of time. Sadly, the characters in this movie were compelled not to shut down their browsers and simply meet in person? Holes, holes, holes. Not only was I not scared in the least by this "video", I wasn't entertained, enlightened, fascinated or even marginally impressed. I couldn't wait for it to be over. Expand

1 83 minute group Skype call where teens are scared enough of a troll that enters the chat to call 911 but apparently are incapable of leaving their bedrooms for any reasons whatsoever and apparently none of these teens have any family living1 83 minute group Skype call where teens are scared enough of a troll that enters the chat to call 911 but apparently are incapable of leaving their bedrooms for any reasons whatsoever and apparently none of these teens have any family living in their homes as no mentions of brothers, sisters or parents, just 6 kids sitting on their asses in their own bedrooms on a Skype call , not once does the camera leave the computer screen of this chat , at some point someone's screen glitches and freezes up and well assume they are dead , I hardly consider this a Slasher film as far as these death scenes go or should I say images of a death scene since every death scene glitches up and freezes. It was fun for a bit watching the teen drama unfold as they dish out each others dirty laundry but the cattiness gets annoying quick enough. IMO it's more for reality TV Junkies that like their cattiness and verbal fights where everyone is calling everyone %$#@ or %#$@^and using the the f word Expand

This film has been billed as the nextThis movie sucked and I hated it!! The characters were terrible. The plot is contrived and boring. So poorly shot, so poorly directed and so poorly written and it didn’t have to be any of those. This film has been billed as the next ‘Blair Witch’ or ‘Paranormal Activity’ but those films didn’t aim to be phenomenon’s they were more accidental and based on word of mouth. This film is clearly trying too hard and I think it will be forgotten when the new ‘Paranormal Activity’ movie comes out later this year.

It’s another example of why found footage really doesn’t work as a sub-genre of horror and I would really like it to go away for a while and come back with some better ideas. The film leaves no room open for a sequel so hopefully that means we won’t be seeing another one this time next year! One of the few positives points I can say about this film is that is didn’t go with it’s dumber original title of ‘Cyber Natural’, Man that sounds stupid!!

There wasn’t a moment I was enjoying this film. I was bored from start to finish and judging by the people who were in the cinema with me, I don’t think I was alone in that. The only moment I enjoyed was when they played ‘How you Lie, Lie, Lie’ by Connie Conway after one of the characters secrets is revealed on the internet by the thing that is going after them. I was in hysterics! Much to the annoyance of the people around me! Seriously, skip this one, and if you must see it, see it as a rental and get as many of your friends around so they don’t spend money on this rubbish film either.

The most ironic thing I have ever seen from this movie is that even YouTube is involved in majority of the movie and yet this still feels like a low-budget YouTube video. Never have I seen a horror movie so boring I wanted to stop the movie before it could even end. If I was in this movie, this movie would have been over in a second because I am at least not as idiotic as our main characters for the plot's sake. Expand

The first act sets up an interesting premise that quickly dissolves into an uninteresting horror movie. What a waste. The characters are all annoying and the only real good part of the movie is hoping they all die painful deaths. There is way too much showing found on in the desktop. Most people use at least a few keyboard shortcuts from time to time which would also help the place of the film. We know you are copy and pasting something we don't need to see you click the buttons that say that. Expand

Disappointing horror movie. This movie can be so predictable it's not even funny, if your a big fan of horror movies I want you to guess how this movie will go down... yep it will go down just like that. The one thing that I liked was when that barely saved the movie was when the haunting finally happened it was entertaining, but the absolutely worst part was the first 5-10 minutes was the main characters (I forgot their names, that's how forgettable this movie is) are having their romantic dialogue that your suppose to care about but you don't and the point were it goes on for to long I came so close to throwing my popcorn at the screen and leaving. This movie was not very good of this movie is still some how playing at your theater or when it comes out on DVD or Blu Ray and you haven't seen it don't waste your money. I probably should of watched True Story instead of this. Expand

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had a friend recommend this to me, and honestly I don't see what the whole hype about this movie was. I'll give the story credit for being original (and some of the morbid deaths). The story takes place on Blaire's computer. Being the tech-geek that I am, I spotted a LOT of errors (iMessage looked fake, the URLs in Blaire's browser had errors, etc). There were moments when I had butterflies in my stomach, but the entire movie was just death, arguments, drama and crying. The thing that hit me the most was the fact that the ending was anticlimactic - we saw a Blaire-scare, so what? There are so many errors with the plot. The incapability for them to leave their freaking bedrooms astounds me. Another one is HOW THE HECK DOES A FREAKING SPIRIT KNOW HOW TO USE A DAMN COMPUTER? I could go on about these flaws, but I'd reach the character limit after the fourth error. In my opinion, it kinda sucked. Expand
