Episode Details

Join Katie and Mike in this week's episode of Ahh! You Scared Me, as they log on, video chat, and dive headfirst into the 2014 supernatural screen-life horror film, Unfriended. Directed by Leo Gabriadze and produced by Timur Bekmambetov, this found-footage style film unfolds entirely over a teenager's MacBook screen.

The duo breaks down the movie's unique pacing, the early 2010s technology nostalgia and the sheer terror of an untargeted spirit taking over a Skype group call. From digital footprints to gruesome, involuntary blender accidents, your hosts discuss the ultimate teenage nightmare of online bullying coming back from the dead to haunt you.
