Certain movies tell the same ole story in a completely different way and the results are unforgettable. Blair Witch and Cloverfield come to mind. Now you can add Unfriended to that list. This movie milks suspense out of a computer screen…skype, Facebook, Google, youtube, everyday things that fuel the reality of what we are watching and add to the slow build tension. A mouse click here…a text there…a video file download. Intense. The payoff is not as great as the setup but the movie sticks with you long after you leave the theater. Very original and very scary.
