In our third installment of our technology season, we trudge through yet another flop, known as FeardotCom. This was not an easy watch but we do love talking about bad movies!
In this 2002 horror film, we follow detective Mike Reilly and Terry Huston as they research the mysterious deaths of four people that all died 48 hours after logging on to a website named feardotcom.com. Despite numerous red flags, they jump in head first and visit the site themselves. Essentially, it's two not fully fleshed out plots with a vengeful ghost killing people that visit a website and her sadistic murderer torturing and killing people on another site for views. Sounds weird, right? Listen along as we try to understand what's all going on here and honestly tear it to shreds! Also, make sure to stick around after the review as we discuss the real horrors of the internet!
