For those who are convinced your laptops and smartphones are evil, we have a scare film about the horrors and isolation of being a social media influencer. Staying in adjoining suites at a hotel hosting ViewCon—a collection of YouTube and Instagram stars and their legion of fans—Ashley and Megan soon discover that there are things scarier than thousands of teenagers armed with phone, asking for selfies. Their rooms are haunted by the vengeful ghosts of some of the original pioneers of social media, including a terrifying young boy named Bobby. Featuring a ferociously pounding score from EDM DJs/producers Das Mörtal, the movie is both a classic spook-house tale and a look at how technology is changing the landscape of youth culture. And what did happen to those poor children in Room 2210A in 1984?
