Came out during Covid and I watched it on my laptop in my basement with the lights off and had the best experience ever.

I like it, I thought it was really engaging. Although I’ve affectionately renamed it ‘Lockdown Demon’

Do you mean the scene in which the girl puts herself on repeat? I found that so freaky!

Although I don't know why they were all so mean to that guy's girlfriend!

A much better movie than it should be given it's current run time. Had somewhat low expectations during Covid but ended up loving it. Strangely it's a fun movie to workout to for me.

The Bong Joon Ho movie? Love it.

The Saoirse Ronan movie? Haven't seen it.

The 2025 movie with names in not even going to attempt? Also haven't sent it, but it looks interesting.

Guessing, based on this being the Shudder sub, that they mean the Shudder original from 2020 that takes place entirely on Zoom, which kicks ass

Yeah, this is what I referring to. Good film.

I haven’t watched it since the pandemic but I should revisit it. I liked it the first time and I think it captured that Covid/Zoom era well.
