Joe Keery (aka the guy from Stranger Things), plays Kurt in this film, a complete psychopath who wants nothing more than to be an influencer. He did a good job in the role, made me cringe quite a lot which annoyed me at first but also kinda made it more realistic as that’s how some Wannabe YouTubers are. This was a found footage film taken through YouTube and live-streams and it kinda works, some good acting, weird and simple story which is kind of like if the guy from “king of comedy” was a YouTuber and way more psychotic, like it’s comical how much of a psychopath this guy is, like it’s soo exaggerated how fucking crazy this guy is. I would have liked it more if the whole film was like one live stream or YouTube video, it is like this but sometimes cuts to a security camera or some random person's camera which takes away from the realism. I liked the message of this film, though it’s exaggerated how much people use social media, some people really are that obsessed and it’s annoying, it was an interesting film, seeing a guy take it way too far just because of how obsessed he is with followers or viewers. I think it’s something everyone should take something away from, and chill with the social media.....
6.0/10
