So bad, but so good.
Wow. That’s my review.
This was one of the worst films I’ve ever watched. Terrible acting, boring story, etc.
Sure, we can go for the original and tell you how great it is. With 2018's Halloween, this time directed by David Gordon Green, the long-awaited sequel (almost 40 years!) features an older, but more vicious Michael Myers. The storyline's great and the kills brutal, but, because this is a new trilogy, the two films after this didn't quit deliver like this one.

Before <I>Unfriended: Dark Web</i>, there was <i>The Den</i>. We’ve all seen crazy things online, so what happens when you see something strange on the Internet and take an extra step to figure out what it actually is? You should proceed with caution or simply walk away. However, that’s where this movie comes into play, and Zach Donohue's directing and writing lead you to the darkest areas of the dark web.
The world’s ending and you’re stuck in the middle of the dessert with a zombie hot on your trail. What do you do? Make him carry your bags, of course. Brittany Allen (“Smalls” deserves a nod, too) keeps this already great film alive until the very end.
I’ve heard people say that Logan Marshall-Green is the poor man’s Tom Hardy, but I disagree. LMG can handle his own, as proven in Leigh Whannell’s Upgrade. The set designs and technology throughout the film are eye-poppers, but the film itself is a must-see.
This was a nice January surprise. While I rolled my eyes at some of the dialog, I was taken aback at how great this film is (It was also a box office success, and a sequel will be arriving in late 2021). While it was a little predictable, it’s properly tied up at the end, and makes the viewer want more.
I always have trouble writing a review for this film. While I really enjoyed the film, I don’t consider it a horror film. Along the way, we learn about the true intentions of each character, but then you question if their intentions are true or not, once again leaving you to scratch your head as to what’s going on. It includes characters who are hard to read (a good thing), which is helpful as it builds up for an ending that is a pure mind-fuck (another good thing)
Shocker’s ridiculous plot is what made me add this film to the list. That doesn’t mean it’s a terrible film. It’s spectacular. It’s full of terrible one-liners and sub-par acting, especially by a few actors who went on to accomplish great things in the entertainment industry. I remember my mother taking a few friends and I to see it in the theaters for my birthday. We all left the theater reciting a few lines from the film. What we all need is a Horace Pinker action figure!
This film was a breath of fresh air. Unlike the first film’s evil ghost spirit, <I>Unfriended: Dark Web</i> takes us to the darkest parts of the Internet, where anything illegal goes, such as murder, money transactions, and kidnapping setups. One by one, we see each character face their death in creative ways, from being pushed in front of a subway car to a police shootout. The film’s tied up at the very end in a clever manner, and I hope that Blumhouse continues this franchise.
