I really enjoyed this movie! Which I am glad that I can say that because I had seen some negative reviews and so I was worried that I would not like it! Going in I felt my expectations were reasonable considering the plot and overall setting. Plus I am a huge fan of Alycia Debnam Carey work and had high hopes so was trying to be fair.
I felt the movie had a good pace throughout and kept in engaged the entire time. It has plenty of solid horror or what some might consider intense scary elements throughout the movie. There's only so much that can be done with a movie of this type but I think the actors carried it very well.
The special effects were more than adequate and were honestly a nice surprise. The overall video & audio quality on the blu-ray was excellent too! I hope this movie gives Alycia more opportunities to show off her talent!
Get some popcorn, a water or soda and turn off the lights! Then you can relax and enjoy the movie. Just keep an open mind going in and you should be pleasantly surprised
I can highly recommend this movie to anyone that is a fan of the genre with reasonable expectations. I just hope you can get it at a decent price, like I did.

Alycia is solid in this role! Has plenty of tense, frightening moments & keeps your attention the whole time. Very enjoyable!

I found this movie on Netflix a few months ago, and have continued to enjoy it. I can't wait to get into the dvd. I was really surprised that it came as fast as it did. This was supposed to arrive between 10/21 and 10/28, and arrived today. Yay!!!

"Friend Request" is an outstanding horror film involving haunted social media and the possessed electronic devices which "connect" us. The film is very well directed and written with excellent actors and beautiful photography. Despite being a supernatural blood fest, the characters and situations are realistically drawn. If well crafted jump scare horror and slow burn dread is your thing,you cannot go wrong with "Friend Request." I highly recommend this scary fun horror film.

I'm not being extreme here. This film is one of the worst yet fussiest horror movies I've seen. It can't make its mind if its a curse movie, witch, or demon possession. Instead, its all of the above! With a possessed Facebook page! With magic matrix source code, and undeletable pages and pictures... I guess that app that your grandma uses is scary ...

OK, I just purchased this movie the other day not expecting too much. I was pleasantly surprised. This movie is definitely a roller coaster thrill ride. There is a very good story going on as well as good character development. The ending is a shocker and better than expected!

Better than I thought it was gonna be but still not good. Predictable jump scares, an unimaginative plot, and mediocre acting keep this from 5 stars.

FRIEND REQUEST DVD (from Warner DVD)
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on February 17, 2020Verified Purchase
3 stars...or 4? I give it 4 because the plot is pretty good even if the script wavers a bit. Also, apart from Debnam-Carey ("Fear The WD), who I like, the unknown (to me) cast do well, again given a slightly hard to swallow script. However, I do find it incredibly annoying when a director relies on VERY LOUD sound to herald "shock" moments, of which there are many. I found myself waiting for the sound blast rather than the visual! Some excellent graphics, a very creepy "dead" girl, and an ambiguous ending make this a not bad horror film. Low budget aside, the effects are good too. (Was it filmed in South Africa??) One day Debnam-Carey will make a really great film in a part that truly stretches her talent. When will that happen? Who knows.?

Its a moral story ,what goes around comes around , A popular girl takes pity on a weird girl who as no friends ,presses friend request .invites her to her birthday , cause her friends dont like the girl (never spoke/or talked to her) she makes an excuse not to invite her ! She finds out commits suicide! Takes revenge from the grave "How does it feel to be alone),maybe when you see a shy person you popular people why not say hello"

Friend Request, Good or Bad?
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 17, 2016Verified Purchase
A highly interesting film with a relatively unique take on the so called "cyber horror" genre. It mixes a few stereotypes with a very interesting art style and deep if somewhat dark sense of expression. We all of course have our own opinions on these sort of things but if you open your mind you will realise just how truly terrifying this idea for a story is.

Not what I was expecting
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on March 3, 2018Verified Purchase
I thought this was a film based on the book 'Friend Request' by Laura Marshall - it seemed to be very loosely linked at the beginning of the film but then it turned into a supernatural horror and completely removed from the book. Not my cup of tea - very weird.

Mediocre.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on June 20, 2021Verified Purchase
This film was watchable, don't get me wrong but it lacked the heart-stopping, nerve-jangling scenes I look for it these types of films. The acting was passable. I would recommend it of you are looking for a time filler but not the 'lets all get together & watch Friend Request' night.
