Instead, you get a movie that's enjoyable enough, but leaves you feeling like it could have been much, much more.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Was drawn into seeing 'Selfie from Hell' with a cool poster/cover, a very intriguing if not creative premise and as someone with a general appreciation for horror. That it was low-budget, which from frequent personal experience is rarely a good sign due to that there are so many poor ones out there, made me though apprehensive. 'Selfie from Hell' is a film it doesn't do enough with its potential (although there are far bigger wastes of potential in film) and could have been much better, can't say that it is a great film because it isn't. It is not a terrible film though, as far as recent low-budget film viewings go it's one of the lacklustre but watchable ones easily. It certainly could have been far worse, considering the large number of films seen recently being mediocre at best and terrible at worst.Although 'Selfie from Hell' is far from great and could have been much better, will agree who consider the rating too low. Have seen far worse films recently that have a higher rating, for example a few irredeemably awful films that get around 4.4.Lets start with the positives. The setting is atmospheric and spooky and 'Selfie from Hell' is surprisingly well shot and easy on the eye, was expecting a cheap looking film and to me that wasn't the case here.'Selfie from Hell's' at least doesn't have one want to tear their hair out or annoyed. There are suspenseful and creepy moments and there are parts that capture the horror of this very dangerous subject very well. Albeit, it could have explored the subject more. It could have been more enlightening and said more of what was not already known. The creepiness is not sustained all the way through, with the horror and tension giving away later to dullness and a lack of creativity and shocks. Things start not making much sense and gets silly. The acting is not amateurish as such but is uninspired.Further issues are that it was clear that it was written in haste. There is a very rushed and careless feel to the story, especially in the second half where confusion and choppy can be found, and the underdeveloped and scrappy script likewise. The characters are flimsily developed and bland, the direction lacks focus and the music is far too intrusive, sounds cheap and irritating.In conclusion, lacklustre but not a waste of time. 4/10 Bethany Cox

Hannah (Alyson Walker) is visited by her vlogger cousin Julie Lang (Meelah Adams) who operates a Vlog called "Selfies from Hell." We quickly learn something is not right with Julie and evil is following her. Hannah gets deep into the dark web in order to find answers. The film had a number of good jump scares, but the overall plot explanation wasn't up to snuff. It left too many holes. Tony Giroux gave us one of the worst on screen CPR scenes: 2 breaths, 2 pumps near the neck. Why even bother? And the dark web does have a search engine contrary to the film. Facebook also operates on the dark web and there are 50 million research papers. It is not all sick stuff. Guide: No swearing sex or nudity. I think Hannah showers wearing a towel.

Girl has her cousin coming to stay and is supposed to be bringing her new boyfriend. Boyfriend's ill so he didn't come and her cousin is distracted by something sinister going on in her life connected to the dark web...This goes all out for horror atmosphere and, by and large, succeeds in this endeavour, though I do find jump scares a cheap, unwelcome, and unnecessary tactic in horror movies.The acting is okay, certainly nothing that would warrant a bad review.The writing and directing were a bit irritating like, for horror effects, leaving rooms in the dark when any normal person would put a light on - especially if there is any chance there's a demonic presence in your immediate vicinity. Also, if you have someone visiting it would be polite to call an ambulance if they are catatonic. It's those kind of details that see the rating stars dropping swiftly by the minute as the movie unfolds.Would I recommend it or watch it again? No. This is all about horror sequences so if you like that and don't worry about the mindless plot holes and irrational behaviour then give it a go.One other thing that springs to mind is the music score which at one point I think they actually tried to drive the viewers mad with a ridiculous heatbeat-like clanging sound that was far too loud and went on for so long that I had to remove my earphones.

I might as well admit it, i'm too old for crap like this.it is all about the dangers of cyberspace,selfie selfishness,hyperactive cathatonism,supersticous e.mails,TOR,darkweb ,sosiophathy from living a social life on the internet and all the means that have emerged from science since i passed my learning ''phase of life''. the acting are decent,the music very well used,some jolts of horror were present,thanks to the score,but the story and plot must have been made while under the influence of psychoactive drugs,its based on lsd hallusinations,and rythm of ecstasy. it is a 4'er under doubt,and no more than that. kids will love it,and hopefully not copycat it.
