Ratttter

Ugh. This is a found footage movie that makes no sense at all. Yay!

Emma moves into New York to go to college, however her electronic items are immediately hacked. This is the "motivation" for everything being filmed as we see what the hacker is seeing/recording. She gets on with her life, however the stalker slowly makes things creepy, turning away the boyfriend and isolates her. And then she is going to move out, but the stalker can't have that.

This is a movie with no build up and stupid resolution. I'm going to give away the ending, but as it's rubbish, don't worry. Emma doesn't know she's being stalked for over an hour. And as this is an 80 minute movie, that means that the stalker doesn't confront her until there are ten minutes to go. At which point the stalker kills Emma and that's the end of the movie.

What? What the hell is up with that? I get why he did that, but there's no sense of resolution of the bad guy being caught. And we never found out why he fixated on her, or how he immediately managed to hack in everything she has and her boyfriend's account too. Magic?

Just a terrible movie to watch and even slightly think about.
