"Likewise, I must give kudos to the actors for their frighteningly realistic portrayal of the stupidity, immaturity, amorality, and cruelty of modern American youth. Teens these days can be incredibly cruel and sociopathic"
So how teenagers have always acted in the history of forever in the opinion of older people?
Okay, I worded that wrong. My bad.
Ah, sorry about jumping like that. The whole "teens these days!" Stuff is something that always gets my goat.
The movie itself has a creative presentation, but I feel like other than that it's a standard horror film. There's room for potential, especially with the genuinely creepy bits like when Val's skype screen just freezes.
I feel like they shot themselves in the foot with that final jumpscare. Implying that Blaire is going to die makes it a little hard to tie the sequel to her.

Surprisingly Entertaining, Though Not Without It's Flaws
I remember reading about the film here on TV Troupes and when I saw it on HBO, I decided "why not?" After watching it, I found it to be surprisingly enjoyable. Though I do have a few issues with it.
Overall, it's by no means an Oscar-worthy blockbuster, but still pretty fun to watch.
