I genuinely really like Unfriended: Dark Web. I wasn’t keen on the original at all, I actually really disliked it. But for whatever reason, I felt like the sequel was an incredibly tense and spooky film. I was on the edge of my seat the whole way through, and I’m kind of sad that seemingly not many people have seen it at all. It’s a great little underrated horror gem and a brilliant sequel.

Movies being "unbelievable" has never been a problem for me. As long as the story is entertaining and the acting is good I'm good. Plot holes things like that are fine I watch movies for entertainment and I don't get too deep with them. Loved unfriended. Havent seen dark web.

Dark Web was the first horror movie to actually make me feel anxious and scared after it ended. I know it is unrealistic but the fact that the dark web is truly a thing and that the people who use it and gatekeep it do actually have a form of power and can use it for or against whomever they choose. That's what truly scares me

I watched the first unfriended on a laptop. It definitely added to the movie experience for me.

I'm STILL laughing from the blender scene.

I actually really liked dark web more than I liked Unfriended. Dark web was more realistic and about something that can really happen and I think just because it’s so real made it more scary for me. The internet can be a scary place

I’m so happy to hear that you enjoyed the first unfriended. I feel like I’m the only person out of my friends who enjoy this movie, so to know someone else who I watch regularly does too makes me feel a lot better about my decision haha

These movies are going to age like bread.

When I watched Dark Web in theaters, the loud BOOM that accompanied every message from the hacker had me snickering the whole time

I honestly like Dark Web more than the first. The kills are way more creative and cruel. I like that the kills are done by other humans and not a mysterious entity. Plus the first movies deaths are hilarious. Idk any blenders that can shred a hand/neck like that, and the curling iron down the girl’s throat😂

I went into Unfriending thinking, "This is going to be a train wreck", and was pleasantly surprised. Watched it twice, and it holds up on repeat viewings. Haven't seen Dark Web yet. I had seen The Den (aka Hacked) earlier in the year, and found it to be a bit better. Had more of a "deep web" plot, but it was pretty good... until the end. Like most horror movies, the ending fell flat.

this movie looked really interesting but i don't watch horror EVER so i'm really grateful to you for summarizing it hahaha

Dark Web was super eerie in my opinion! I do see where you're coming from in your assessment of it, but although the gore might have been lacking, the horror element was definitely there for me. Also, I did enjoy the first one and agree that it's underrated. Actually not sure which one I like better...

Watching this on my phone and put it on the coffee table. My cat sits next to it and watched the entire video mesmerized 😂 you must be a cat whisperer

My boyfriend couldn’t sit still during the deep web one. It made him so uncomfortable

I love unfriended so much. I love it because of how they made it and it’s so cool to watch it play out. I’ve watched it so many times, I can’t even keep track anymore 😂 as for dark web, I really liked it as well. I thought the plot was really interesting and I loved the ending (I think we’ve seen the same ending because I have HBO as well) but I do agree that the friend group lacks the chemistry that the friend group in the first one had. I get that the friends in the first one were supposed to be portrayed as teenagers and the second ones were adults, but still. But overall, I really enjoy both! :)

Something like Unfriended happened to my sister. The girl was crazy and it was on Facebook instead of Skype. She threatened to burn down our house, kidnap my sister by pulling her out her window, and actually came to our house and beat on the front door. She was using a fake name so police couldnt help us. My sister had to sleep with me even though she was 20. She was too scared

Your neighbors being loud as usual is just a meme at this point 😂 love the video

Dark web was sooo much more enjoyable in my opinion, the story was way more entertaining.

I couldnt deal with all th screen glitches, computers havent been that shit since 10 years before this came out, gave me a headache!!

I literally just finished watching Dark Web when the notification for this came up!

I haven't watched the movies, but how you described it the Dark Web ending reminds me of the Nerve (2016) ending hah

Great video and thank you for linking ways to help support justice for Black lives

oh wow i never really knew any of the behind the scenes facts!!! so underrated

silence, the legend of horror is speaking. Loved the vid

i never had any desire to watch these but now i think i should give them a chance

In my opinion it’s basically paranormal activity but more teen

I absolutely love your content, Sarah. I have so much respect for you putting your opinions (popular or not) online because we all know how nasty the internet can be. With that being said, I have seen both films as well. As an avid horror fan who has been in self-quarantine since February 23 due to being immunocompromised and taking daily immunosuppressants, I would LOVE horror/thriller suggestions that can be streamed on Netflix, Amazon, or Hulu.

For me, the best thing about Unfriended is the YMS review

Love your channel so much. Finally have somewhere to go for genuine horror content.

Loved Dark Web so much, I thought the horror was in that knowledge/fear that this stuff happens but we don’t really know. I did like I friended but also got kinda bored.

I heard Pepe meow and freaked out for a second bc I thought there was a cat outside my door

I liked both actually and I agree with your assessment of the endings.

I’d love to see you do more of these 🖤 Personally I liked the Dark Web because it’s something that actually happens and the thought of it is pretty scary, I found it tense. I can’t remember the first one so well but I’ll have to watch it again !

I just wanna thank you so much for entertaining during the end of the world, you’re an icon

I loove that blanket you got! Could you make a video on best horror merch stores? I'm dying to get my hands on some spooky apparel 🥰

Aww I’m so sad you didn’t like Dark Web 😭 I loved it a LOT but I agree it’s not a good rewatch, I think I wouldn’t get the same surprise and on-edge feeling I did the first time.

good on you for posting donations and other links. loved both movies as a cult classic like how campy teen movies are. it really is the saw of the new generation.

YES!!! I have been thinking about watching the second movie for so long and literally just talked about it yesterday with friends during a zoom call 😅 perfect timing Sarah!!

Isn't it cool how we allrelate to teenage films so much? I think it's because we remember how, back then, it WAS realistic to hang out with people and be BFFs with them just because of proximity or circumstance... but tye friendship is no less real for that, is the fascinating part. That can be, like, soending time with people you don't even like, or LIKING people you wouldn't predictably get along with. Choosing friends more carefully, for better or worse, is such a grownup thing..,

Just marathoned both of these for the sole purpose of being able to watch this video lol. I loved the uniqueness of the way both movies were filmed so it definitely bumped up the score I gave it. The first one wasn’t terrible, I thought it was a really fun movie to watch and I would definitely recommend! You’re very right about the 2nd one not being truly horror, but honestly I thought it was a better watch than the first. It also made me more paranoid about the internet than I already was 😂

I liked both of them almost equally. I felt the second movie had a more original take on the premise, but the first movie had that hilarious section when all the secrets came out🤣 The acting overall was better in the second movie, I believe. Very fun movies once they get going.

I'm a big fan of bad and campy horror movies. Sometimes you just want to laugh at a character's stupid decisions and enjoy it for what it is. Only watching good or artsy horror would wear on me.

may you do a movie review on the horror movie called “Stay Alive” ? it was made in 2007 ❤️

yeessss finally someone else talks about the ending in the first one breaking the wall. i was starting to think i was overthinking it/made it up lol glad I'm not the only one who hated that part lol

As soon as I saw your Texas Chainsaw blanket I got so excited! I looooove Creepy Company & I have their Halloween VHS blanket & it's one of the best things ever 😦

You should check out the movie App from 2013. You download their app before the movie starts and as it plays you're shown extra pictures, stories and clips throughout the movie ( it knows what scene you're on because it uses the microphone ). You can read the characters text messages as she types them and see her camera being accessed, even when the character herself doesn't know that it's happening. It's a really immersive experience and I remember being _so_ excited when I'd see my phone light up out of the corner of my eye. It was really cool. I wish more movies did it.

I don’t care for teen horror, and I always think people give Unfriended a harsher critique than it deserves.

I loved the premise, enjoyed both films.

I really did find the gore quite disturbing. Had to look away for some of the deaths.

The general concept of Dark Web was pulled off WAYYYYY better in a film called Open Windows (with Elijah Wood). So when it took that route I was like "Oh, I've seen this before but better".

i looked at the title and said "yess queen lets do it" so queen im listenin

I didn't even know there was a sequel to Unfriended. The sequel sounds like they pulled from the game Welcome to the Game.

i literally get so excited when you upload a new video :)

I love the way you present ❤

Can you do a horror t-shirt/memorabilia collection? I'm looking for Terrifier shirts and other horror clothing and I'm always looking for new shops :)

I’m right there with you Sarah; I like Unfriended a lot more than Dark Web, but again I feel the same way with pretty much everything you mentioned

Unfriended sounds like an interesting movie! Awesome video!

I think the sequel is better because it is so realistic like when I was watching it I was genuinely on the edge of my seat because of its realism

I just got shudder using your code 🙂 watched Train to Busan and The Wailing - both amazing South Korean horrors, maybe you could do a list of your favourite Non-English horrors?

I really loved both these films, great review. I used your code for shudder and finally got to watch creep show, loved it! VHS was also awesome, can't belive I had not seen it already, I'm working my way through your top found footage films as this is my favourite type which all started with Blair Witch Project for me 💚💙💜

i like both of these !!!

Hi Sarah, As I started to watch your video I realised that I haven't seen Unfriended:Dark web, so I just watched it :DI think both of them were good, altough dark web didn't have those horror elements as Unfriended, but it was more interesting to me as I figured out how could this dark web thing work, the twist was also good at the end, not that cheesy I think. I wasn't bored, maybe at the begining, but it was bild up quite well. Thanks for the vid :)

The one continuous take thing is a myth, they filmed multiple start to finish takes and took the best parts from them and pieced them together. If you look for them you can see the cuts and where the scenes are stitched together

i've missed you!!! and the horror videos

Have you done It Follows ?

I liked the first better, plus I work in IT security and honestly it's hard to shut that part of my head off when I want to spend the majority of the movie going, ok what GUI are they using to access the "dark web" and exactly how are these "hackers" doing all this. At least it gives me ammo for panels

dark web is one of those movies that was so cheesy, off the wall, and nonsensical that it was good (i dont remember seeing the first one, even tho i know i did lol). i seen it in theaters with friends, and the whole theater was being goofy as heck the whole time, so it has really good memories for me. it started off with one guy in the back making jokes every now and again, but by the end of the movie, everyone was cussing at the screen when the characters did something dumb. no one got up and left so im assuming it didnt bother anyone, which is honestly the best part lol. i dont even like going to the movies, but that story makes me miss the theater lol

I thought Dark web was unique and very exciting. I liked both movies alot more than I expected

I think it's really risky to make a movie that gives a lot of importance to phones and computers because they evolve SO FAST and are likely to seem incomplete and "bad" in just a few years... In horror especially but also in general btw!

I haven't seen Unfriended dark web but I did see the first one and honestly I just now realized this but if your watching it on a laptop it creates this illusion that your in the same conversation as the characters.

I hate UNFRIENDED and Dark Web. But I love watching you talk about 'em.

hey Sarah, I recommend you watch the YMS on Unfriended to understand how poor the technical aspects of that movie are

I like crappy teen horrors, so naturally I liked both of these.

Dark web holds a kinda important place in my heart, bc me and my friend got there at like the last late night showing of it, and we where like the only ones there, got to be annoying all movie long, got the ending where the bf got buried too

I was forced to watch it by my cousin's and till this day it haunts me

I haven’t seen the first Unfriended but I feel the same way you do with Dark Web. Do you think you could review Mother’s Day? I just watched it on Tubi, and I would love to hear your thoughts!

The thing that bugs me off w Unfriended: Dark Web is that it should've not been connected w the 1st one and what I mean by that is that it should've been named something else, it's better as a standalone film not sharing a universe in the "Unfriended Franchise" they should've titled it as "Dark Web" only due to the fact that the reason y the 1st movies is titled as it is bc the mc unfriends Laura.

im so glad im not a film critic type because i loved both movies a lot. and the first one reminds me of me and my family pirating horror movies on putlocker and having sleepovers in the living room in the summer :p

I remember shane dawson ripping that movie a new one, so I didn't watch it. But when I finally did get around to it I remember thinking "wow this is the horrible horror movie he was talking about?" ... anyways glad to see a video on these two movies, definitely not bad compared to a lot of horror I've seen P.S. Have you ever seen satanic with sarah hyland ? It is such a cringe fest, but I'm just such a sucker for teen scream horror too and was willing to overlook it

You should talk about Antrum !!!!! , love your channel.

I love both these movies so good 😊

I don't always agree with you, but I 100% do here. Really dug the original. I liked the supernatural aspect of it. The kills were solid. It was just quick dumb fun. Dark Web was a slog to get through. I hated the hacker angle. Worst of all, the kills were boring. Unfriended-6.5/10 Dark Web-2/10

To be honest, I didn't care for Unfriended and didn't bother with Dark Web. The idea for Unfriended was great, but the execution lacked for two reasons. First, watching someone surf the net and pick out music while having lots of inane conversations on Skype went on way too long. I was quite bored with it. Second, I didn't find any of the characters likable. They all seemed like spoiled brats, to me. So, by the time they started dying off I was grateful something was happening, but couldn't care one bit about who it was happening to.

whenever I hear about the movie ‘unfriended’ I just think of the hamster on the webcam who is that y’all got any fuckin cheese? meme

someone else said it but i also would love to see you rank movies in big franchises like saw or all the classic slashers, that would be really cool

Always loved that movie. I do have a soft spot for movies that are film that way too. Great to watch on a computer screen, or even better, a laptop!

unfriended dark web had so much potential. They could have included so many aspects sorta like the real dark web that actually exists. Them showing how all the events taking place like a gameshow was great.

Do you have any videos on your favorite teen horror films? It’s my favorite genre and I would love you know which ones you love!

I would love to see a video talking about your favorite foreign horror! ☺️

It's funny you mentioned the friends in Dark Web all feeling different. Most people I've talked to felt like they were just trying to check off boxes to please all demographics. Female poc, LGBTQ couple, deaf person, ect. Not that that grouping of people can't get along, just didn't feel like believable friendships and more just like trying to fit "one of everybody" in the movie so no demographic could claim they weren't represented. Just how it felt to me and a few others I've chatted with.

Have you done a video about the movie "Friend Request"?

I liked Dark Web at first but I dont like how nobody lives in 3/4ths of the endings. And the only good ending is a bonus feature on a DvD. I need some sort of catharsis in my horror movies, otherwise what is the point?

I haven't seen Unfriended, but I saw a movie using this entire on the computer screen premise years ago. It's called The Den and it used to be on Hulu, although I'm not sure if it's still there. I remember liking it very much and I've seen it several times. It is gruesome and has some sexual content so be forewarned, but it uses this premise really well, in my opinion.

i was literally watching unfriended for the first time and when i finished, i opened youtube to rewatch some scenes and this video appeared on my home page

Probably gonna be an overlooked comment but as you said “creative deaths”, would you ever do a video about the final destination series? Unless you already did 😅

I haven't watched the first Unfriended in a while and I don't remember hating it, but I also remember thinking that I'd probably be in the minority for liking it. I recently watched Dark Web and was pleasantly surprised. I can't say I disagree about the lack of horror, but it didn't bother me and I didn't notice until you pointed it out 😂 Still I really like both films and, personally, think Dark Web is stronger. To each their own, I always love to hear your opinion!

I never thought Unfriended was bad and I feel like most people who think it is are just saying it because they can't be bothered to think about what they're watching. For a horror movie, it's not at all bad. There's horror movies like Open House, Swipe and The Bye Bye Man that aren't just bad - they're painfully boring and poorly acted... Unfriended is neither of those. It evolves quickly, it keeps grabbing your attention back and it's pretty well acted for what it is. It's purely because it fits into the found footage genre that people like to write it off completely. Fair enough if it's not someone's thing. But it's not bad. Objectively it is just simply not. It's original and well crafted, just a niche flavour.

I liked Unfriended a lot more than I expected. It was a different type of horror and I enjoyed it. The second one, not so much but yes the concept is really good for some of it - it just got ridiculous at the end.
