A lonely man becomes manically devoted to a manipulative "friend" (Wil Wheaton) whose VHS dating service tapes seem to be speaking directly to him in this retro Tinder nightmare.

Notes et avis

i really enjoyed this movie and its overall tone. i give it 4 stars because I really wish it had a bigger climax. the movie really just builds up to a short climax that leaves you feeling incomplete like it was really just getting started. I wish they had kept it going rather than ending it so soon. but overall It was worth watching and Id watch it again.

This taut little thriller rests on the shoulders of its cast, and thankfully all our main players hold that weight admirably. If you're looking for a different sort of horror film, give this one a try. I think you'll enjoy your time.

I feel this is a very interested take on a delusional man who suddenly can't distinguish what is real and what is not. Throughout, he finds himself connecting with Andy more and more, even to the point he is having a real conversation with Andy, when in reality, Andy is just a video. Almost every phrase Andy says has some connection to events that play out in the movie.
