Blogtoberfest – Horror Movie Review – Unfriended

Title: UnfriendedGenre:  Horror, Thriller, DramaDirector: Levan Gabriadze (as Leo Gabriadze)IMDB link:  http://www.imdb.com/title/tt3713166/ Synopsis according to IMDB:A group of online chat room friends find themselves haunted by a mysterious, supernatural force using the account of their dead friend. I might be getting too old for this, I admit this up front.  I did not enjoy this movie on any level. Though I thought the story and the premise was excellent, the thirty year olds playing high schoolers did nothing to elicit my sympathy.  I couldn’t even enjoy it on the “so bad it’s good” level because there was little to no physical action.

Title:   Butterfly Kisses Genre:   Thriller/Horror Synopsis:   (from imdb) A filmmaker discovers a box of video tapes depicting two students’ disturbing film project featuring a local horror legend, The Peeping Tom.
