No one see "Unfriended". It's absolutely awful.

There's potentially a great and scary horror movie in the premise of someone haunting people from beyond the grave via their Facebook and social media accounts, sending creepy messages, posting photos and video clips etc. This is not that movie.

This is an incredibly cheaply made and cheap looking shabby "found footage" style movie that takes place entirely as one extended Skype video chat conference call where a bunch of dumb teenagers stay online with each other even as they are getting knocked off.

You have been warned.

I'm a huge fan of bad, even awkward, movies, but there's got to be a story and some heart in it, not just formula.

and for some reason, I thought it was supposed to be a parody or something like Airplane or Scary Movie. I guess I was wrong!
