After finding a laptop, a young man goes online to play a game with five of his good friends. He shows them a mysterious folder that plays disturbing videos of people who appear to be in danger. They then receive an anonymous message that tells them they will all die if they disconnect or call the police. The planned night of fun quickly turns deadly as each user becomes the target of something sinister while the others watch helplessly in terror.

Critics Consensus

Unfriended: Dark Web is more interested in chills than an exploration of its timely themes, but horror fans should still find this sequel to be steadily, undeniably effective.

J. R. Jones

Chicago Reader

The movie pushes the Windows idiom of modern cinema about as far as it will go, its narrative cleverness offset by the visual tedium of following a mouse arrow around for an hour and a half.

Dark Web: Unfriended needs less reliance on lewd jokes and more on its screenwriting.

Rated: 2/4

Figuratively speaking, Unfriended 2 puts a sheet over its head and says "whooo; the internet is scary". It is seldom as scary as a sheet.

Rated: 2/5

If continuity errors bother you tremendously, there will be plenty of spots in Unfriended: Dark Web that will niggle you. My suggestion would be to go in, suspend your disbelief, and have a good time.

Rated: 6/10

Horror Queers Podcast

A surprisingly mean (and prescient) screenlife horror film about the dangers of being online. The characters decisions become easier to accept once you realize they were never getting out of this. Plus: casual queer rep for the win!

Rated: 3.5/5

I’m not sure this latest film, of the “found footage/cyber” genre is perfected yet, but I like that people are experimenting with it, and I am very interested in seeing what comes next.

Rated: C-

A sequel in name only that retains the format of the original but changes the twist and manages to surprisingly work much better.

I enjoyed this over the first one. Gave a very ‘black mirror’ theme.

"Eliminado: Dark Web" ofrece una experiencia entretenida y bien realizada dentro del género de suspense tecnológico. La película destaca por su dirección competente y un elenco que realiza un buen trabajo, manteniendo el interés del espectador a lo largo de la trama. Sin embargo, no logra alcanzar niveles excepcionales, presentando ciertos clichés y momentos previsibles que impiden que se convierta en una obra verdaderamente destacada. A pesar de estas limitaciones, "Eliminado: Dark Web" cumple con su propósito de entretener, ofreciendo una narrativa sólida que, aunque no es una maravilla, resulta disfrutable para quienes buscan una historia bien ejecutada sin grandes pretensiones.

Absolutely loved this- it’s rare that a sequel can be even better than the first but this is definitely an example. The plot is brilliant and you are drawn in right away. I was glued from start to finish, an excellent film with a brilliant twist. I’ve rewatched it so many times now and it never gets old.
