Friend Request (2016)

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, and her closest friends begin dying cruel deaths.

Friend Request is an average social media themed horror movie that entertains throughout and enough jump scares to keep your hearbeat racing.

I enjoyed Friend Request more than I thought I would. It's not the worst movie ever, it looks good, the acting is good enough. The dialogue between the characters is quite natural

I love the way Liesl Ahlers playing Marina. With limited amount of lines and screen time to establish her character, but Ahlers makes it work without overdramatic delivery. And I love Ahlers makeup and outfit.

The internet can be a very dark place. It's that way because people feel more comfortable saying how they truly feel on matters when they're hidden behind a computer screen, rather than being face to face with someone. The film seems to be trying to hint about being careful who you talk to online, or the dangers of our obsession with internet culture.  

If you have a plan for sleepover in this weekend with your friends, this is the kind of movie you probably watched at a sleepover *as a teenager*.
