2016 ‘Unfriend’ Directed by Simon Verhoeven
Enjoying college life as a popular student, Laura shares everything with her more than 800 friends on Facebook. But one day, after accepting a friend request from a social outcast named Marina, Laura’s life is cursed...
Kill a Friend, Unknown Error, Solicitud de amistad
Facebook really needs to examine its security protocols and quit acting like it doesn't possess extreme vulnerability to the threat of lonely mentally-ill witches hacking Facebook using witchcode and suicide rituals in order to get revenge upon those they are unsuccessfully cyberstalking because this is clearly going to be an even larger issue than it is today if FB does not immediately employ a staff of counter-hexers to investigate and witch-proof its site. Everyone could end up friendless!
As far as sensitivity towards witches, the lonely, those suffering from mental illness (esp. in regards toward trichotillomania which can be a horrible condition to deal with) goes, Friend Request earns its F grade for keeps, yet it is such a dark…
While Friend Request was Germany's answer to the popularity of Unfriended, I sort of preferred this to the successful 2014 film??
Friend Request is playing into both the modern witch wave and the anxiety of social media users, sure, it's far from an instant classic, but I like to think of it as a relic of 2016, if we bury it for long enough, in 2030 someone will unearth this time capsule of a film and laugh at us for being so fucking ridiculous.
"Sometimes she would just stare at the screen for hours." *checks time at the bottom right corner of monitor, laughs nervously*
Maybe it all boils down to the fact that I had incredibly low expectations going…
the only thing scary about this film is that they expect us to believe that college kids still use facebook in 2016
"Are you sure you want to unfriend Ma Rina?" -Facebook Proxy,
Dammit, I completely admit it, one of the jump scares scared the fuck out of me. Like it took me a minute. That's the worst.
Back in a simpler time, when Facebook's biggest concern was whether a witch can somehow haunt someone through their service, a girl makes the stupid decision to accept the friend request of a weird girl... she should not have done that... weird girls are bad! She had dark hair... fuck her you shouldn't have become her friend...because she's different and different is bad!!!! Anyway the girl is like a witch that haunts her and her friends and it's a big stupid ridiculous mess that…
Writer: What horror trope should we use for the film? Some options are a creepy loner girl, wasps, disfigured people, haunted house, unlikeable friends so their deaths don't ma..
Director: Yes!
Writer: I was giving you multiple ideas though...
Director: Yes. Use them all.
this is what happens when you don't bully the horse girl they join a wasp cult and start killing people
The whole time I was waiting for the boyfriend to leave her when things became dark knowing he was in danger. I was wrong but I can't trust men, not even in movies.
I hate when the only thing I can focus in movies is the incongruence, how do you explain she's still in collage after what happened? damn it.
Vale la pena guardarlo soprattutto per la riflessione sulla solitudine e la pericolosità dei social media.
Way better than I expected. Definitely a good conversation piece about our presence on social media, our social circles, depression, loneliness, etc
