So, Starr (2023) is one of those horror flicks that digs into the dark side of social media fame. Directed by Riccardo Grippo, it has this eerie, almost claustrophobic vibe that really ramps up the tension. The pacing feels deliberate, almost like it’s luring you in before hitting you with the horror. The practical effects are a standout—there's something unnerving about how they handle the transformation that fame brings. The performances are solid too, especially the lead—there's a real descent into obsession that feels relatable yet terrifying. It’s interesting how it plays with the idea of what people will do for followers, blurring the line between ambition and madness. Definitely a unique take on the influencer phenomenon.
