    Good Idea, Bad Execution

    It could have been good of bad or something in between.

    No way to know cuz half of the movie was missing!

    ...and yes, they left us the boring part only.

    The excitement, the character development, the motive, who's the bad guy, etc all absent!

    If you like a movie where you have to fill in every hole yourself, then be my guest.

    everything was fine, but the end...

    I honestly don't know if I should recommend this movie. On the one hand, it is interesting precisely from the "I'm following you through devices" side, it keeps you in suspense. The plot develops interestingly, I would like to find out who it is, why he does it, even if he was just interested in watching over random girls, etc. But nuh, film just ended it

    Well, the ending was very disappointing, simply because they didn't explain anything, and the end was very smeared and ugly. There are many films about stalking on the Internet, many of them are beautifully designed, have their own beginning and end. And in this film, the stalker just appears out of nowhere, does unreasonable actions, and disappears into nowhere.

    If you like the genre, it's better to spend time on "Megan is missing", "Unfriended" or something of that format.

    I do not give a bad rating because most of the film was interestingly played, and the presence effect made itself felt, but I will not be able to give such a film a high rating.

    Bandwagon Low Reviewers

    All of the low reviews for this movie are most likely bandwagoners who want to seem cool and knock this film because it's a low budget. Indie film and doesn't have a lot of action. This is a PSYCHOLOGICAL movie and mind you, very creepy. It plays on a lot of our's worst fear, an intruder in our home, especially at night while we are sleeping. Or someone watching our every move. Ashley Benson also does a great job with her realistic portrayal of a girl who's just moved to another state to live on her own and doing some questionable and/or embarrassing things while alone, thinking no one is watching. And the ending, holy crap, I got chills all over my body, its so unexpected and scary and seems so real. This isn't nearly the best movie I've ever seen but I was glued to the screen, and I'm not afraid to say that, because they brought the creep factor and I was definitely paranoid after watching. If you scroll down you can see a lot of people rate this movie really well, before all these low ratings of "1" grouped together following each other like sheep. Come on, be realistic, this movie deserves much more than a 1. That is beyond exaggeration. I think if you like thrillers like this, you'll be in for a treat!

    Genuinely disquieting

    There's a lot of negative reviews for this film and, while I can see some of the issues pointed out by other users, I actually liked this much more than expected.

    I found this film to be quite disturbing. It's a slow burn and yes, the fact that the entire film is shot on hand held devices can be a bit off-putting. I found it really effective though, and a simple way to highlight our reliance on technology. There are screens everywhere - I'm writing this on my phone and my laptop is open playing a series on my TV.

    As a woman who has lived alone and has had her fair share of creeps, this movie builds the sense of dread quite well. Others have commented on its boring nature, but for me it was effective simply because it was about the quotidian activities of our lives - there's no horror, no major twists and turns, it's just about the life of one fairly ordinary (albeit pretty damn gorgeous) young woman.

    That's why it works. She's realistic and relatable so seeing the escalation of the stalker's actions and its impact on her life and the people around her is super creepy.

    Chills

    One of the reasons I explore the out of the way places when it comes to film. Low budget and shot mostly on webcams, this movie evokes a sense of dread and horror without showing a drop of blood. The moral, if there is one, says that danger in the 21st century no longer needs mass or form.

    Emma is surrounded by the technology that slowly becomes a menace to her as a stalker takes over her devices and the devices of others. A nameless presence oozes through the movie with no clear indication of who or why - it's just nameless malice floating through the same ether as the wireless signals that connect her. As such, it's filmed entirely on hand-held, cell phone and webcam. While this gets annoying at times, the filmmakers break up with some nice editing moves. The performances are solid and engaging. The stark, brutal ending horrified me with its unspoken implications.

    (BTW - to the person who trashed this, insisting that the rating was inflated, I didn't even know this film existed. If you didn't like it (and I'm betting the lack of nudity and gore played a part in that) that's fine. But don't be a dick.)
