Good start, but then it gets ruined

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

I like the concept and idea of the film as it is something fresh on a lackluster social media internet crazed genre.This had the making to be a stand out film if it had backing and with that backing a bigger budget and more in-depth script, selfie from hell suffers from a rushed story. As said before I liked the idea of this film but what we got was not great with sound effects that came from the cutting room floor of insidious to the film only running for just over an hour. Selfie from hell had the potential to be great but with a tight budget and a rushed story and script it falls flat on its face which I'm disappointed in as was hoping for much better.

Well, I just watched this and I regret having done so. Premise is quite interesting and that about sums up the positives of this film.The negatives? Well, pretty much everything else. They took so many Horror tropes and jam packed them into this mess of a film using the same trope countless times.1 The overly vague responses when a simply clear explanation would be so much easier.2 The Jump scare( or attempted jump scare) ranging from a face suddenly appearing to a phone suddenly ringing directly afterwards.3 Walking around in the dark needlessly and particularly when freaky stuff is going on in your house4 The score - once more the score made up of shrill sharp earache inducing nonsense just took over the vast majority of scenes.5 The false happy ending...I could go on with this but I think my point has been made. In fairness the acting wasn't atrocious, it wasn't great by any stretch of the imagination but I have seen worse.All in all, not a good film, not worth the watch unless you're totally new to the genre and fancy being put off Horror for ever.

A film with a title like this can go one of two ways.It can be quirky and inspired, not afraid to poke fun at itself and deliver a self aware dose of horror fun.It could also be bottom feeder 'appeal to the kids' effluent.Guess which path this film took?The horrible latter that's what...there's nothing really wrong with any of the surface elements and especially early on in the film you could sort of see some effort put in, but this doesn't last as the ludicrous plot and motivations come to the fore.Nothing really wrong with the lead actress who does try and make the best of what she's been given...but all the other actors are not convincing in the slightest and only sought to worsen the already broken atmosphere.Plenty of really loud jump scares...none of which are in the least bit alarming.When this inevitably appears on Netflix I would avoid it like the plague.

I might as well admit it, i'm too old for crap like this.it is all about the dangers of cyberspace,selfie selfishness,hyperactive cathatonism,supersticous e.mails,TOR,darkweb ,sosiophathy from living a social life on the internet and all the means that have emerged from science since i passed my learning ''phase of life''. the acting are decent,the music very well used,some jolts of horror were present,thanks to the score,but the story and plot must have been made while under the influence of psychoactive drugs,its based on lsd hallusinations,and rythm of ecstasy. it is a 4'er under doubt,and no more than that. kids will love it,and hopefully not copycat it.
