Chatroom (2011)
Dr- Hideo Nakata
A troubled English youth named William sets up an online chatroom and becomes friends with four other teens from very different circles. At first, William is helpful to his friend circle, but soon his real personality is exposed, revealing dark sociopathic tendencies. Chatroom is an English thriller directed by Hideo Nakata, best known for directing the original Ring movie. While most internet-centered films rely on the "screen life" style, Chatroom takes a unique twist on the internet chatroom phenomena by visualizing the areas the characters meet. While this is a hit and miss with the narrative, the cast is the best part of the film, with its impressive lineup of young English actors who would have successful careers in some of the biggest movie franchises of the decade. This includes Aaron Taylor Johnson, Imogen Poots, Daniel Kaluuya, Hannah Murray, and Ophelia Lovibond.
