Review: Unfriended franchise
Jun. 21st, 2025 02:30 amUnfriended is among what is referred to as the "screenlife" found footage genre that has become known in recent years, where most if not the entire film is made up of people talking on webcam from their computers or phones. Horror and thrillers utilize this the best, and the Unfriended franchise is of the former category.
( Unfriended )
( Unfriended: Dark Web )
I don't know if there are plans of continuing with the Unfriended franchise or just remain a duology, but I have to say both movies were quite good for what they were. If it were to continue on, I would prefer it to be anthology-based. It would be on brand, since both these were stand-alone movies anyway, though perhaps it could be an expanded universe similar to that of V/H/S where the movies are in the same world just not connected to one another.
