10 Horror Movies About Social Media: Influencer, Unfriended

After director Rob Savage released Host—the shockingly effective Zoom horror film created at the height of the pandemic in 2020—he turned to another technological gimmick for his 2021 follow-up, which is evidenced by its title (his next movie, Stephen King adaptation Boogeyman, is shot in a more conventional style). Framed as a livestream, complete with in-picture “viewer commentary,” Dashcam—which also has pandemic themes—follows an odious internet celebrity (Annie Hardy) whose perpetually recording camera captures first a terrifyingly awful personality (the protagonists’s), then gets weirder and more freakishly supernatural as her road trip spirals. Streaming on Hulu.
