About This Movie

Facetime (2022) dives into the eerie realm of technology gone wrong. The film begins innocently enough, a friendly call that quickly spirals into chaos. What's striking is how it captures that unsettling feeling of isolation, enhanced by the small screen framing. The atmosphere is thick with tension, utilizing practical effects that feel raw and visceral, which I always appreciate in a horror flick. Pacing is deliberate, letting dread build before unleashing the unnerving twists. The performances, while not overly dramatic, ground the experience in reality, making the horror feel all the more plausible. It’s this blend of relatable scenarios and the uncanny that makes it stick with you. It’s definitely got that creeping dread that lingers after the credits roll.
