Unfriended: Dark Web (2018) KILL COUNT

Welcome to Kill Cow, where we

count

the victims of all our favorite movies. I'm James Agee, nice, and today we're watching Friendless Dark Web, the

2018

sequel to the unfairly maligned Unfriended. I don't care what that other YouTube is about. The video says: I love the brand. Part of my love for the original film comes from its devotion to the premise of real-time screenshots, a style that continues in the following Dark Web, but the sequel switches to a supernatural villain fueled by cyberbullying by a group of human antagonists operating on the terrifying and secret

dark

web with so much information in the news about political hacking and cyber discord.

I love that Unfriended once again picks up an issue of The Times because his story giving him the hacking abilities that somehow allow the antagonist to walk around like he's glitchy on camera is pretty silly and completely unbelievable, but other than that, I agreed with this movie as much as I did with the original and I also have another sponsor, are mom and dad proud? Today's death

The film begins with some over-the-top glitch effects on all the studio logos. We understand the premise. We are no longer friends. No need for so much cosmetic coding error, a laptop starts up and judging by all these login attempts the person behind the keyboard is probably not the rightful owner of this machine, they eventually figure it out and quickly get in by logging in on Wi-Fi and then Spotify so that this movie can have a diuretic soundtrack like the original, the user continues to log in to all kinds of personal accounts, always ignoring Norris eiv's account, which he has to log out of every time which downloads and starts a custom program called papaya and it is here where we meet our protagonist Mateus O'Brien, who is very excited about the new hardware he has.

This thing runs a lot faster than my old piece of shit. That papaya program that he created is to be able to communicate better with his girlfriend Amaya. who is deaf papaya can take what he says and play it back with clips of him signing when he shows it to her, although Amaya isn't as impressed perhaps thinking it's a crutch he can use instead of learning to sign better, oh and In case you're wondering, Maya's actress Stephanie Nogueira is actually deaf, so yes, her signs and everything are accurate, although apparently she's too fast for Mattias to understand Mattias, her new laptop is interestingly enough, it keeps crashing and crashing programs on it, and after that, Norris.

TIV account log back into Facebook Mattias starts receiving messages from horny singles in his area, damn Marianne. I thought Ginger was supposed to be the bold one. A quick survey of the cyberseductress's account reveals that there are women everywhere. They knock and ask when they are going to get some promised plane tickets. Mattias joins a group Skype call where his friends compliment the quality of his new webcam and he tells them that he got it on Craigslist as they start playing Cards Against Humanity. game that is fun for a few rounds until the shock of hearing a big black dildo wears off.

I insist, wow, that's so shocking, how fun his friends are, including the musician Lex, the couple Nari and Serena Damon, who lives in London, and the conspiracy theorist AJ, why do you think? Facebook and Twitter are free because Mattias' message is Amaya, who is not in the group chat. He says that he wants to fix their relationship, but first he has to fix this laptop since it keeps crashing. He might have something to do with this huge, crazy hidden folder he's occupying. The entire hard drive space inside that folder is a large number of video files, many of them apparently coming from security cameras and containing all sorts of embarrassing personal stuff.

Mattias is distracted from this trove of privacy invasions by the news that Nari and Serena just got engaged. Oh, what a happy moment, even if it's spoiled a little when Ajay brings up a seemingly painful memory of when Nari first confessed to him that her father wasn't a roommate, and even though Serena's mother is more accepting of her sexuality, Unfortunately he is in poor medical condition. the cancers progressed so it moved to her brain and yet they have her on life support and are actually trying some aggressive treatments during another video call with Amaya. Mattias gets some Facebook messages from a girl named Erica Dawn and she's not horny or looking. for action like all the other women who message Nora.

Instead, she claims to be the only one. Nora sees himself using her friend Erica Dunn's account to message Matthias on her laptop. Mattias tries to follow up on the Craigslist story, but Nora C calls him a thief. then his guilt takes over and he promises to return the laptop to where he found it just before logging out and logging out, although Nora C's account receives some messages congratulating him on his work and promising some dollar bills to her. account. Sending it Sharon 68 seems about as credible as most Twitter accounts you see responding to high profile politicians and it only gets more suspicious when Mattias is told to chat on the river instead of on Facebook, apparently the river is a show that hits the user. in a Wolfenstein canoe floating down a small torch-lit river, it's half creepy, half calming and Mattias shares his screen with the Skype call, so it's more tech-savvy friends like Damon and AJ, you can try to figure out what it is this show and what all these proxies are doing and that's why no one can track you, this is friend, this is the

dark

web and for any viewers who are not familiar with the dark web, which is part of a deep web, they explain it in Internet, it is not.

It can't be indexed by section, it's where you find markets for bad stuff, basically a chat room full of other cheiron that show up, all taking their name from the Greek mythology figure who rocks hard with Tommy Shaw. Chera never cared for the poppier things. by Dennis DeYoung all this weird shit causes an underdeveloped character to not be able to ask a good question dude, not me, I didn't buy it, Mattias finally admits he stole a coffee shop's laptop as a lost and found after realizing there was Sitting there for three or four weeks, the group realizes that the pompous name Norris II IV is a backwards spelling of Karen because he is one of them and whoever they are, they must meet here to trade and the things they your trade might involve. those video files that Damon and AJ say were acquired by hacking into unsecured Wi-Fi networks and unknowingly recording from people's cameras, another shortcut in the previously hidden folder opens a Bitcoin account where a transaction from a few minutes ago translates to 10 million non-cyber dollars. oh yeah, cheran 68, it went well, they start talking really weird to Mattias, it's just that they are trying to have cyber sex, maybe they keep the robe and magician hat when the group realizes that cheran 68 is asking Let them

kill

someone for coins.

Mattias backs down. from the group chat and jumps ship in another folder labeled contributions there are more video files apparently cherán's personal work 4 show a kidnapped girl chained somewhere and another girl who is about to receive an acid bath although fortunately they stopped it The video before we see it actually happen seems like all of their contributions consist of kidnapped girls, that's what they're trading. The most recent file in the folder has a name and an address and shows Cherán entering a girl's room for some reason. She shows part of her face to the camera, but before she can understand anything, Mattias receives a video call from a Maya on Facebook.

He answers and finds no one there until Kelly, Maya's roommate, comes home and walks over to the computer to talk to Mattias. The webcam shit turns her screen black and when it comes back, oh no, Kelly is being attacked by a real motherfucker, it's Cheran 4 himself and after dragging Kelly off screen we hear a nasty crash that only can mean one thing: Kelly is. the first to follow our death count and if murder wasn't scary enough, how about nervous reverse text messages? Thank goodness it's not Comic Sans. The messages disappear when Sharon 4 leaves the computer and the glitches on the screen clear up after she leaves the computer.

I'm going to be honest, I really liked the premise of this movie and I think it's really scary to have a group of dark web hackers chasing you, but man, I hate the visual glitches they have every time the hackers are on camera, It's like screaming. 3 levels of unrealism of cheran 4 voice changer comes back to the computers and looks like a fucking unknown Pokémon and tells Mattias that he sees everything, hears everything and that Mattias needs to get Maya to come to him or else the chair and four will

kill

her. He also says that he will kill Maya if anyone on the Skype call tries to do anything, so Mattias tries to calm her fears about what they have seen and it's not real what to get, it's a game I did everything with . the others mostly satisfied, Mattias convinces Amaya to go with him, although he specifically instructs her to take the subway.

He looks up the filename address of the latest video and finds a bunch of news articles about a missing teenager named drumroll please Erica dun-dun-dun. As expected, Erica's Facebook account is full of comments from people saying they miss her. The reality of Erica's man in distress causes Mattias to make a big move, one so big that Jeff Probst would fall for them. He creates a Bitcoin wallet and transfers a million US dollars from Cheran Fors's account into his own, calling it safe, and then explains that you get the computer back when I get Maya back, you get the money back when I see on the news that Erica Dunn is away. back home safe Sharon 4 not like that one bit, so a video call to Matthias with a really dumb and scrambled voice that matches his real dumb and scrambled face, they don't let the calls grow, what are you talking about Sharon?

Oh my god, that shit sounds so stupid. Mattias is in a higher resolution. Boat down the river and then back to a group chat, he calls the circle and the other cheiron's current demand that he confirm his identity with a secret cove. Mattias obtains the code from Charon, whose voice and face encoding the technology cuts away to reveal a somehow even less intimidating character. antagonist if they find out I lost that computer they will kill me, they will kill you, and they will kill anyone else who may have seen Mattias rejoins the Skype call where Nari googled and found that Eric and Dawn are real and really missing before that it can be explained. unknown user joins Skype call oh shit, is Billy back from the original?

No, this is the damn Cheiron circle and they move us all to click on a YouTube link. The video that plays is a truly eerie example of how easily people can find out where you live from information they find online. Haunts my damn dreams. Next thing you know, another video opens showing Lex on top of a building being pushed off the roof by some glitchy guy who I assume isn't the chair enforcer since he's still going a mile by mile. , yes YouTube, are you going to add restrict that snuff video or do you just want to keep coming back after you kill count the chair and the circle disconnects from the Skype group and Mattias finally gets the chance to tell everyone what's going on when a mile oozes connection with him at the subway station.

You see that this smart web cookie told Maya to take the subway knowing that, as a chair and by following her, he had lost the connection and therefore, unable to hear Mattiasexplain the situation to his friends, they become very distressed by the reality of all this and the fact that their friend Lex is really dead, this is damage control, his way of cleaning them up, they also agree to continue making themselves ignorant when Amaya and The Chair and the 4 receive a signal again and that gives us a fairly dark comedy scene while they pretend to play cards against humanity half-heartedly. "My gym teacher got fired for adding blanks to the obstacle course too good, hey, velcro slump.

I like that slump. pretty good, I thought the slump was pretty good too, man, but his performance wasn't good enough apparently because user cheran uno connects to the Skype call and goes to AJ's YouTube channel indicating he's next in line, but you know, at least AJ supports good causes He's screwed, that goes on. being something that the ultra paranoid AJ claims to have a traceless Internet presence, so to avoid sharing that, one calls 9-1-1 and plays them an edited audio of AJ's video clips. I'm going to back it up with mountains of. songs and explosives they go to the mall and have fun since that call was made 10 minutes ago, the police are here now and when AJ goes to follow their orders and opens the door for them, the hackers break into his computer and play with a shotgun. sound effect over the speakers AJ the Ham Man gets crushed, which reminds me of the bleach death in the original as a timely, internet-savvy way to kill someone in a cyber horror movie, but also remember that swatting is serious shit and you should never do it to someone.

It also haunts my dreams. Sarina reveals that Nari is already on her way to the police station to get help, but the hackers aren't going to let that happen, so they work some of their computer magic. tricks and shows a split screen decision for Sarina to mate, on one screen she sees her fiancé Inari at the subway station and on the other her mother on life support in the hospital, they begin a countdown in the style of the original without friends, which is a great little callback, but in the end Syrena, very stupidly, in my opinion, can't choose between her two loved ones, no, so Serena's mother dies in the most discreet murder ever. has ever been committed in the slaughter of cows since somehow the chair and the circle. was able to hack into his hospital equipment and take him off life support and they're not done yet because Serena couldn't make a decision nor is he on the chopping block, and even though she fights off her anonymous attacker, it seems that even though they both get in the way on the way to a Mayan subway train when it arrives at the station, the damn cheiron went crazy for Frank Underwood with these kids.

Serena is killed immediately after her mother and her fiancé appear when another flawed Cheran appears at her apartment and knocks her unconscious. In the camera's field of view, her death comes to us only in the form of a sound effect, but it's enough for us to know that Serena's final broadcast has ended, leaving only Mattias and Damon on the Skype call. . Mattias discovers a loophole around the chair and the circles. omniscience by finally using ASL well enough to communicate with his girlfriend and tell her to meet him where they first kissed, that's what we call character growth, he leaves to go meet her, leaving Damon alone on the call, but while Damon talks to his invisible.

Something interesting happens to the cyber adversaries, we see a remote desktop application connect to what it calls the bait laptop and user cheran one shows Damon some wicked Photoshop skills by putting Mattias's face in a screenshot of the video made by Erica at the same time we see a hooded man. A figure brings a body to Mattias's apartment and puts it in his closet. It seems like this whole damn thing has been a cyber setup, so Damon calls Mattias and many know that he was Mattias. Their video call is encrypted and when he returns we see that the Atlantic Ocean was not a good enough firewall to avoid Cherán's circle because they are inside Damon's house, hack into his computer and write a confession in words before staging a suicide by hanging.

Damon in his own house, quite a heavy man, but I think it was naive of him to believe that Damon was safe in London. Queens Got a Curse: Mattias, completely reduced to tears at this point, watches in a broadcast as Amaya is redirected to another location by the chair and is attacked by a hacker, but that seemed more like a kidnapping attack than a murder. I was attacked, so I'll leave her off the couch, but this fade, on the other hand, is left to a vote among the river users, and as democracy develops, Mattias watches Eric Adonis escape from it. her closet and asks whoever is looking for help, then waits, she takes off whatever that was, it's a horrible makeup effect in my opinion, but since it looks like a hole in her forehead, like one of the people in the chair was requesting first, I'm going to Suppose Erica's not going to come back from that on the list, she's going to vote for Mattias, it ends in a fucking 1972-style landslide, so we burst into the road hit by a van that leaves the nothing to run over him, man, all those people voting and none. of them could achieve a cooler death.

I am ashamed that a slow zoom out gives us a chilling revelation of the scope of this operation. It seems like all the various hackers, including a guy who is apparently a cop, had been watching this group for a long time. It's ass time and like the rich guys in the rat race, we're even betting on my new late night show, like how long it would take AJ to talk politics. The movie ends with the realization that the entire movie took place in a remote desktop window. from a guy complaining about computer settings, unless you went to the movies and saw a different ending, the dark web friendless was released with two different endings in theaters, so although the death count will follow the version that you just saw, which I assume is the canonical one.

I can share with you the alternative, the alternative ending called Buried Alive shows that the surrounded chair deciphered Mattias in sign language and figured out where he was going, so when he got there there was an open grave waiting for him and a hacker running after him. he. to hit him in the face with a shovel, the next thing you know, Maya arrives and finds the grave filled in and the hackers prevent her from understanding Matías on a video call by erasing his lips as if he were saying something bad on television. They also hack his text messages, so he was left helpless underground while she stood above him completely in the dark, then the home releases included two more alternate endings, the first of which was called, they won an m4v, someone has been using the handbrake, this shows my outside somewhere in a couple. from different cameras Matías gets on his bike only for some hackers to jump out and grab them both.

Another ship of life and death begins, but one of those in the chair plays a video of Matías's big hashtag move that he made when he extorted them with his own bitcoins and that earns the respect of the anonymous viewers who changed their votes to let them live. Mattias and Amira break free to hug each other while still creepily surrounded by hooded hackers pointing cameras at them, and the rest of the ending is pretty much the same. only now Erica Dawn's dripping forehead happens at the end, the last alternate ending shows Mattias arriving at that warehouse and looking for Amaya, she doesn't find her, she finds a gun on the floor and Sheeran starts a flash vote asking people if Mattias will commit suicide. this version ends before we see what happens and is definitely the silliest one in my opinion.

I think the canon ending is the best partly because it was the only one with a verified death for our count. How many left us with total, let's find? Go out and meet ten people who died on a dark web with no friends. The victims included six women, three men and one hacker of undetermined gender. You know who Frank Underwood is, Betty Gabriel, which literally could have been anyone with the 92-minute running time that we ended up with. with a death averaging every 9.2 minutes I'll give the golden chainsaw to AJ for the coolest death. It's not often that a shooting death gets this coveted award, but having a cyber-based movie kill someone with a swipe was simply excellent and shows how filmmakers are at least partially in tune with Internet culture, although the machete for the Dumbest kill will be for Kelly Kelly, yes exactly, screaming killing a random character is definitely the least exciting kill and that's it.

The Dark Web Friendless came out in
