This is a dry comedy of Youtubers "creativity process". The acting isn't horrible and the jokes are mild. But its not completely cringeworthy either. The platform I watched this on, had it listed as a horror movie. LET ME BE CLEAR, IT'S NOT! No idea why it would be listed as horror flick. Its mildly entertaining at best.

Don't have high expectations
I made this movie so I have to give it a 10
Realistically it's probably a 6 or so. Some pretty funny moments, other less funny moments. Brian kicks ass in the role, and honestly I think the whole cast did a fantastic job. If you're reading this because you watched the movie, thank you for checking it out! Regardless of whether or not you liked it, we put a lot into it and are grateful that anyone is willing to give us an hour and a half of their time.
Very Interesting Indie Mockumentary
I saw the film on Amazon Prime and thought it good enough to warrant a review, seeing as there were so few on here.
I liked the film a lot overall! I did have some minor issues with it- the pacing could've been a bit tighter in the middle and sometimes the camera work was a bit too shaky at parts.
Those aside, this was surprisingly well written and EXTREMELY well acted, particularly by the actor who plays Greg- the other actors were believable though. The directing wasn't bad for a bunch of first timers and the cinematography (aside from the shaking) was pretty engaging despite the mockumentary format.
Something I wanna address is whether the film is real or not: it is not. I say this cuz a lot of the comments on the trailer and on Prime Video questioned if Lazer Greg was a real character. Which I would argue is a credit to the film's realism! The shocking things Greg does are comparable to a number of the Youtube controversies of the last few years. The movie very effectively uses realistic stories to build its theme of the internet enabling toxic people.
Last thing I'll say was that the music was SWEET. I was humming the main theme to myself long after the movie was over. Anyway- not perfect, but definitely better than its getting.
