| Director: | Hideo Nakata |
| Actors: | Aaron Johnson, Imogen Poots, Matthew Beard, Hannah Murray, Daniel Kaluuya, Megan Dodds |
In an onlineworld, who's controlling who? Puppet master? Victim? Which will you be? When strangers Jim (Matthew Beard - An Education) Eva (Imogen Poots - 28 Weeks Later) Emily (Hannah Murray - TV's Skins) and Mo meet William (Aaron Johnson - Kick Ass) online in his new chat room they're completely seduced by his fast-talking charismatic character. But beneath the surface lies a much darker truth. William is a dangerous loner channelling all his energies into cyberspace. He's become an analyser; a calculating manipulator who finds it almost impossible to interact normally with others in the real world, instead turning his hand to manipulating people online. When the timid Jim opens up to William it sparks a fascination that quickly turns into a dark downward spiral with the twisted antagonist coercing the rest of the group to become pawns in this deadly game. As the cat-and-mouse situation escalates to devastating heights, can William's anti-social networking be brought to an end.

I've only given this 1 star because I have to - I would rate it as nil! The idea was great - but it didn't work for me. I thought it was absolute rubbish. The same concept would have been great if filmed in a more "realistic" way. It was too "psychedelic" for me I'm afraid.
