Yes, that's pretty much right. But that's not a twist, it's just the entire story.

Unfriended (2014)

My God, that was awful.

Is that really how young people are these days? Are you like that?

Obviously I'm not the target generation for this utterly annoying waste of time.
lolz! Agree...

The approach was interesting & challenging...to tell a story through live video chat & online texting format; appreciate that part. But other than that it falls pretty flat. Online abuse was the major component in this story & it could be an appealing thing for a film but I wasn't intended to see a girl got drunk & shits on her pants and that crap went viral!!...seriously??!! this all they could come up with when they were thinking about what to show as an online abuse?!? And therefore the background story for a bullied girl turned vengeful ghost gets completely & literary wasted. They either could make it sympathetic, mysterious or pure evil but here with all other characters you'd care less & & less as the film progress. And lastly for a horror film about a vengeful ghost stalking & killing its victims online, I was expecting some creepy & creative kills but hugely disappointed.

Finally got around to watching What We Do in the Shadows

7/10

It was great and just decent. Great because i haven't laughed out loud at a movie in a very long time. Quite possibly not since some of the scenes in The 40 Year Old Virgin. So great because of the quality of the humor. It wasn't laugh after laugh though and towards the end it wasn't so great.

SPOILER:

The big party was a let down. Wasn't really that funny.

END SPOILER

I'd definitely recommend it.

Mr. Jones
(AKA: movie with awesome as FUCK scarecrows)
Not a bad flick. I actually enjoyed the ending. After the earthquake filming that is. That got quite annoying while you're trying to understand what the hell is going on. It did wrap up though and things made enough sense by the end that I'm not going to question anything. I would watch again, if anything to see those lovely works of art that "Mr. Jones" created.

I thought the scarecrow creations were wonderful, but the movie fell flat for me. I cant recall if it was the pace, theplot, or the onscreen talent..or what, but I remember feeling completely detached from the narrative,

Wyrmwood. Australian zombie flick. Pretty dynamical but sometimes overdone with comedy and parody.
