Benny Jansen (Wes Dunlap) rhymes with Chris Hansen is a vigilante Youtube predator hunter. He contacts predators online and pretends to be a 13 year old girl. He then meets up and films them, sometimes without good results as the last guy recognized him from high school where he was a basketball star. His show is called "Creep Dunk" and he is a bit obnoxious and has some anger management issues. After his last encounter, he buys a Glock and pretends to shoot predators. A sixteen year old girl named Nicole (Lucy Urbano) gives him leads and wants to be part of the action which Benny objects.
His second encounter didn't go quite as planned as friends help you move and real friends help you move the body. Not a bad plot, but the script needed some refinement.

That is out of Context
This deserved better
The plot is decent. Unfortunately the screenplay, the acting and direction are mediocre to say the least.
This movie is not well made at all. It's badly paced. Really slow, unnecessarily drawn out scenes of the characters freaking out with not much going.
The dialogue takes you nowhere. Nowhere at all. Almost feels like the dialogue was mostly improvised.
The zoomer over reaction to everything as a plot device is just frustrating and makes the movie seem stupider and super obnoxious.
The dialogue is just ridiculous. Some of the actions of the main guy seem so stupid. There is so much freaking out in this movie.
I think the cast feels acting and freaking out are basically the same thing. Obviously they are wrong and I totally do regret watching this. I don't know this gets two stars instead of one. Maybe for the original story, ish.
You give movies a chance and
A select few will reward you. For whatever reason this movie works. Some minor flaws and irritating dialogue but the story moves fast and comes together with a nice bow at the end. High Marks to the lead actor as he took a complicated character and ultimately made him interesting. I usually fast forward thru movies like this but at no time did I feel it necessary. In fact I found myself interested in how it would progress. I believe the one weakness in this film were the contributions from his two male friends. One was a little too psycho (drugs) and the other friend was just a warm body waiting to die - Seven stars.
