After a public controversy left him disgraced and demonetized, a washed up internet personality tries to win back his followers by livestreaming himself spending one night alone in a haunted house. When he accidentally pisses off a vengeful spirit, his comeback event becomes a real-time fight for his life (and social relevance) as he faces off with the sinister spirit of the house and her own powerful following.

Critics Consensus

Proof that there's still life in the found-footage gimmick, Deadstream is a scarily good bit of B-movie fun.

It's hard not to begrudgingly admire a film as committed to its deliriously silly bit as Deadstream.

3/5

This comic horror romp has no pretensions and seeks only to goof around and dole out a few jump scares, but in its own sly way it offers a Gen Z version of The Blair Witch Project.

The film doesn’t quite live up to its promising premise and handful of clever camera gimmicks.

A a manic and deranged found footage social media horror that’s as funny as it is horrifying.

With an ending as unsatisfying as the one they went with in this feature, I’d say Deadstream is an overall disappointment.

5/5

Deadstream is a fun and light-hearted horror that utilises found footage expertly, bringing the medium into the social media era in an extremely believable way.

Deadstream is a frantic, hilarious, and surprisingly scary found-footage movie that perfectly captures the absurdity of modern internet culture. It is a wild, unpredictable ride. The Highlights: The Persona: The lead performance is pitch-perfect, capturing the specific, cringe-worthy energy of a desperate-for-clout influencer. The Inventiveness: The film finds new ways to use the found-footage format, keeping the camera work dynamic and the scares feeling fresh. The Pacing: It moves at a breakneck speed, never letting the energy dip as the protagonist descends into chaos. The Verdict: It is a refreshing take on a tired subgenre that manages to be genuinely unsettling while making you laugh. If you are looking for a movie that is both a horror ride and a sharp satire, this is a must-watch.

I don’t know what the heck was the matter with me when I watched this four years ago. I didn’t like it. But people on podcast I listen to love it and I gave it another try, and it’s hilarious!

Two and a half starts for being funny and entertaining. Main actor is really unlikable but that might be on purpose
