A mess, but an interesting one. Deliberately confuses you all the time right until the end, which looks quite cumbersome and unnecessary, because some plot lines seem to be existing just for the sake of it. The motivations are extremely weak, the events make barely any sense. But it also has that 2007-2008 DVD atmosphere (especially with its Facebook clone, chats and and mobile texting) and somewhat engaging to watch. It probably shouldn't work, but it does. Previously called "Scroll Down" (as revealed in the credits), but seems the name was changed due to the uprising of IPhones of the time.

Got my copy yesterday and watched it last night. Seems this flick has been doing the horror circuit and won some awards which is actually quite an accomplishment (if not a bit surprising) as this is not a traditional horror movie - but I did think it was a pretty cool thriller. The horror fans would like it as well I think as there is still a good amount of blood and gore (though mostly the after affects). I liked the story line and the multiple plots, which I guess could be confusing to some if you don't like to focus when you watch...I was definitely guessing until almost the end (though got it before the final scene). Thought the directing was solid and liked the interaction between Joe and Sandra (though the sex scene was a bit tame!). I think its hard to make a good indie on a low budget and so was happy to see the movie was well made and I was glad I picked it up.

iMurders is a film about a small group of cyber-friends that meet-up once a week for an online chat. In their voice/video/text chats, the host (a special effects artist) chooses a game to play that lasts all month long. The winner of the final round gets a prize from the host's memorabilia collection.But being iMurders, things obviously go a lot further than that premise. The month's game is supposed to be a Survivor style game, in which chat members are "knocked off" one by one for saying the pre-determined code word. However, the host of this game is very quickly incapacitated, and the self-ordained replacement host decides the new rules of staying alive in this game.This film struck me with the number of character actors present... it runs the gamut from Tony Todd and Frank Grillo to the wonderful Gabrielle Anwar. However, even though those names get first billing, the spotlight here is placed on the less recognizable actors, such as Terri Colombino (the lead in iMurders).Ironically, Colombino bears a striking resemblance to Diane Lane, star of the similarly-themed (if much worse film) Untraceable.So, with all of these familiar actors finally getting their due, does the film do them justice? For the most part, it actually does! The plot is very interesting, and more interweaving than it seems to be in the first hour of the movie. There haven't been many good movies made about the dangers of "cyber-friends" that you've never met in person. And while the line-writing struggles to express any character's knowledge of the internet (multiple characters stiffly insert the word "computer" in front of other technology-based words, just in case you don't know what a chat room or keyboard is), ultimately the plot matters more than the believability.By the end, you only have so many options for who the chat room killer may be, and the reveal came way out of left field. It doesn't explain everything in the end though, which leaves you hanging with some plot gaps (such as the FBI's immediate knowledge of the chat room... the FBI didn't even know how to stop 9/11 from happening, so you can't tell me they caught on to the chat room the second its visitors started becoming victims), but I can forgive some things ultimately because the rest of the movie makes up for it easily.

I've been meaning to write a review ever since I saw this movie at Texas Frightmare back in May (LOVED Frightmare BTW!).....and now I just heard on the radio that that it's being released this week, so although I'm a first timer on IMDb, I wanted to give my opinion on this movie.So, is this a true horror movie? Answer - NO...so at first when i started watching at the screening I have to admit I was a little annoyed - I was like "what IS this"? where's all the blood I love so much? (can you guess - I'm a horror fan).....so then I was like, fine, I'm here - might as well watch - and I'll tell you something - this movie was COOL. It did end up having some good killing scenes...so of course I was happy about that! Big note though - you gotta pay attention - There are all sorts of plots going on that tie together in the last like 10-15minutes of the movie which really kinda sealed the deal for me - LOVED that part with all the flashbacks. So in the end I really ended up enjoying this film and was glad I pushed past my initial reaction and stayed at the screening until the closing credits!
