Horror Films About the Net
 
There have been a number of horror films lately that focus on the internet as the source of fear. "Strangeland," "Fear.com," and "Untraceable" are good examples. However, there is one additional film that I can't recall. It had something to do with dead entering the internet or something like that. There was one particular scene where a character printed out a bunch of pieces of paper and put them together on the floor and it looked like a face. Does anyone know what I'm talking about?

Can anyone name any other "Internet Horror Films?"

Does that one with the kid from Malcolm in the Middle, Frankie Munez count, I believe it's called Game Over or something like that. It was ok I guess. More about video games though.

Is it just me or are all the films about the net dull as fuck?

yup... typing and clicking are the antithesis of "cinematic"

i think done properly - it could be effective.

i can see where the attraction is - our dependancy on technology - even though most of us have no idea how it works .

as well as the fact that everything is connected - creating a sort of sub-world.

Kairo had some good ideas that could have been taken farther ..

I thought Kairo was great. Enjoyed it a lot.

Me too,it was the atmosphere throughout the film that was most remarkable imo.I can't remember any other good "Net" films,My Little Eye had a good concept but I thought it was a little boring.

Adding it to my Netflix queue now... For a remake, Pulse wasn't that bad. I thought that it was creepy, atmospheric and a great bleak ending. I'm excited to see the original.
