9. Unfriended

Bravely told from the viewpoint of a computer screen, Leo Gabriadze’s Unfriended pits a demonic computer virus against five friends as they attempt to chat through a Skype session. It’s like if the government agents that watch through our screens are trying a bit too hard to explain themselves away. WE KNOW YOU’RE THERE.

Possessing the accounts of a deceased classmate and appearing as the mysterious ‘billie227’, the entity forces each member of the group to play a gruelling game of ‘never have I ever,’ revealing dark, hurtful secrets that the friends have kept from each other over the years. In the original game, you can surreptitiously lie when Becky asks if you've ever had a finger up your butt, but for Blaire and friends - there's no escaping their past.

Counting down the seconds and pitting friend against friend, the body count rises until the terrible truth is brought to light. Use that incognito browser, guys.
