Directed by Rob Savage
Six friends get together during lockdown for their weekly zoom call. It's Haley’s turn to organise an activity and instead of a quiz, she’s arranged for a Medium to conduct a séance. Bored and feeling mischievous, Jemma decides to have some fun and invents a story about a boy in her school who hanged himself. However, her prank gives license for a demonic presence to cross over, taking on the guise of the boy in Jemma’s made-up story. The friends begin noticing strange occurrences in their homes as the evil presence begins to make itself known, and they soon realise that they might not survive the night. A SHUDDER ORIGINAL.
During an online séance, six friends accidentally invite the attention of a demonic presence.
Cast: Haley Bishop, Radina Drandova, Jemma Moore, Caroline Ward, Emma Webb, Edward Linard

This is a fun ride I always come back to for a good little scare
I enjoyed this movie very much. Fun, with a good amount of jump-scares. Not too long, not too short. Loved it!
This film nails what 'Unfriended' should've been. It's got a purpose, a solid storyline, and cleverly uses COVID to add a realistic touch. I appreciated the brutality of 'Unfriended,' but this one feels more practical and fits well with the current scenario. Only thing i have to say is that I didn't like some of the jumpscares. Felt cliché, but I respect it since it's a webcam-style movie, and it was teastefully executed. It's definitely what sets it apart, so can't really knock it cuz it makes sense to put them in. Overall, it's a great take on the webcam movie genre. Would watch it again.
