I dozed off multiple times watching this. I won't recommend it, but if you want something slow and kinda jumpy, then feel free.

Yes, there is some slang that definitely wasn't used in 1999 when the movie is set. And yes, the Internet connection is too fast. All of us who lived through that time will notice that... But it's a good movie. The game (HoH) is very time-period accurate. Some may find the opening dialogue awkward, but it reminds me of catching up with an old friend. So in that way, it's very organic. I would highly recommend this movie for anyone who likes indie films. It has the same feel as Unfriended where the entire movie takes place on a computer screen, and the more things play out, the more secrets are revealed. Give it a watch!

Deadware is an interesting concept and much better than it has any right to be with a cast of 2-3 and hardly any budget. The end is a little rushed but the lead up to it is entertaining and able to deliver a good atmosphere as well as a few pretty good jump scares. The two characters are interesting to watch and carry the film very well considering it's simplicity. There are a lot of technical issues, which might be jarring for some so you have to look past them, namely that they use technology that wasn't around and that the internet had no where near the bandwidth to do what they do in the film. It's supposed to be set in the late 90s (i think '99) and I'm not really sure why? It didn't seem especially important to the plot and being set in a more recent time period would have fixed most of them.

I'm usually good with letting every Movie no matter how good or bad play out to the end . . . But this one just hasn't managed to capture my attention. It's only been playing for 15 minutes, but it's mostly talking . . . And I'm just not that much of a conversationalist. Give me a little Action any day . . . Or at least something to laugh at . . . Or pretend to be frightened by (Jump Scares just don't make me jump . . . And I'm not much of a reacter either). I gave this Movie a Middle-of-the-Road Rating of 5 only because I'm not going to finish watching it. So by all means don't base your decision to watch/not watch solely on my Review . . .

IT JUST SUCKED😭😭 the acting was terrible and the ending sucked. Maybe if it had better actors, with a better ending we would've liked it more but it was just awful. I liked the idea but with how it came out...it could have been better. With these type of movies they are never really that good. Same with unfriended, unfriended was alright but only because Shelley hennig was in it and she's a terrific actress. But this, this could've been better and the amount of disrespect on religion and god was a bit much. I just wouldn't recommend it! Especially if you're religious like I am, it's disrespectful on that end. Thank you!--side note, this was my first review so I hope I did okay! I felt like this was the perfect time to review haha.

Great googly moogly, this was terrible. Not a single aspect of this film - not the acting, not the script, not the scares, not the period authenticity - were pulled off successfully. The performances were a flatline. I haven't seen either of them in anything else, so they may be brilliant in other roles, just not in this film. Not that they were given much to work with. You can't make an hour long horror movie based off 90s internet click-bait screamers and spoooooky meme images. Half the film consisted of this same exchange. Character 1: This game is spooky. Character 2: Yes, but let's keep going. Character 1: No, I don't want to keep going. Character 2: Yes, but let's keep going. Character 1: Okay. *Cue screamer* Character 1 & 2: OH NO!

It was better than I expected, for a low budget found footage almost style film. The conversation seems natural like two friends chatting on a web cam, and the concept was pretty cool. It definitely looks like the 90s Internet too, and playing a game on the Internet was pretty 90s. So I think the concept works. It got in some nice creepy scares, got out some cool secrets about the characters. The chat between the characters explains the story, so I felt that worked. I thought it was a slow start though, and more chatter explaining the story instead might have worked a bit better. But overall not a bad watch.

If your SO is like mine and can't stand anything but Band Of Brothers-quality television, this is a great movie to watch with your cat or BFF, both of whom are hopefully really chill and just enjoy the company/vibes more than anything else. The low-budget situation works in this scenario. I stayed interested the whole time and found myself genuinely spooked by a few scenes. Both actors played off well against each other. Ali Alkhafaji's performance in particular stood out to me. If, like me, you enjoyed any of the following films, you may enjoy this one too: Host (2020) Horror In The High Desert (2021) Butterfly Kisses (2018) The Lost Footage of Leah Sullivan (2018) Bad Ben (2016) The movies above are just a few (if somewhat obscure - that was intentional) examples of found footage flicks I have enjoyed. Someone else said this is a horror film made by horror fans and that's about right.
