I saw this the other day and it is probably the worst movie I have seen this year.

For starters, the trailer for this film is so misleading you need to see it to believe it. It was marketed as a horror/thriller/suspense picture but what I saw in the theater was anything but that. The "plot" also felt extremely shallow and self-serving, lacked substance and was downright boring. I've never stormed out of a theater or demanded my money back but this was only time I actually considered it on the way home.

If this film was marketed more honestly, I still wouldn't watch it because I don't think that social networking is anything to write home about, but at least I wouldn't feel like I've been had.

There was nothing I enjoyed about this movie and that's saying a lot because in most cases of films/documentaries I didn't like, I stopped following the story but was still able to appreciate the filmmaking aspect (cinematography, dialogue, lighting, FX...).

This was just awful.
