Skypemare (2013 Video)
6/10
Unoriginal but enjoyable
26 November 2015
There's no doubt that the two main characters being super hot and flirty is just to distract from the clichés to follow. While Skypemare may have one hell of a cheesy title, it does deliver in the horror aspect, albeit in stereotypical and predictable ways. Someone being grabbed by an unknown intruder on the other side of a Skype call is far from original, but I think you'll find the idea is driven home with above average acting, high- budget filming, and quality special effects. But with an idea so dull it's hard to give Skypemare a decent mark, if one thing can be said about Skypemare's originality it's that it did manage to put it's own twist on the Skype call gone wrong shtick by having the intruder send her pictures of what is happening on the other side of the call, as a way of enticing and torturing the main character, giving Skypemare a chilling mood about it. Also has a decent and actually unexpected twist at the end; it's worth 8 minutes of your time.
