Synopsis:
Teenage chick commits suicide.  The afterlife must have a great IT program because she comes back to torment everyone using their computers.

Review:
One day, someone wanted to make a movie, but realized that took things like lights, sets, editing, cinematography, etc., and knowing what the fuck to do with all of it.  All this someone had was a story and no sense of when to put the brakes on a gimmicky idea.

What makes this film unusual is that your perspective is that of someone with an internet browser.  It's like you hooked up your machine to your TV with an HDMI cable.  This means the atmospheric "horror" comes from noticing a disabled option in a right-click menu or seeing ironically vengeful selections come up in the iTunes window.  When the dead aren't busy fucking with your Mac's UI or shitty music products, they're crashing your Skype calls while possessing you and forcing you to kill yourself while your buddies watch on a webcam.

Verdict:
The movie feels like a bad anti-drug and anti-bullying special.
