Unfriended: Dark Web review – cyber sequel traffics in digital cruelty

A low-budget follow-up to the 2014 horror, taking place entirely on a laptop screen, isn't always convincing but boasts some inventive suspense

If you were to guess which 2018 film contained references to student gun reform, Cambridge Analytica, Flint's ongoing water problem and the Iranian nuclear deal, I'm going to take a big leap here and assume that you wouldn't have predicted a sequel to 2014's laptop-based cyber-horror Unfriended.
