Feardotcom (DVD)

When the body of a professor is found in a New York subway station, the police are baffled by the cause of death. The victim’s face bears a hideous expression, as though he has literally died of fear and he appears to have suffered horrendous hemorrhaging; his eyes are engorged with blood. The local environmental team is brought into investigate and police detective Mike Reilly partners up with Terry Huston from the health department to investigate what is going on. Contagion is soon ruled out, but when a delirious young German man is brought into the station Reilly is concerned to see the same hemorrhaging around the youth’s eyes. Within hours, the man is dead, his ...  Read the complete review

A man chases a white haired girl onto a railway track before being run down. The post-mortem look of horror on his face portrays a horror far more extreme than simply being hit by a train...and then there's the matter of the perimortem bleeding from his ears and eyes. The girl is never found and no one else remembers seeing her. A German exchange student goes nuts and is dragged raving into a police station to cool off, his eyes are bleeding and a little later he is dead. Cause of death...unknown. A little later his girlfriend too is found dead in the bath having seemingly bled to death but no visible wounds and the look of horror on her face betrays ...  Read the complete review

Directed by William Malone, Fear Dot Com - with its tag line on the back of the DVD cover "One Click And You're Dead" looked and sounded like it would be a brilliant horror thriller. Further enforced by the fact that it stars Blade's Stephen Dorff, I was expecting an exciting and slick film that would be well worth the watch.

The idea behind this unoriginal "The Ring" wannabe is decent, and follows a series of gruesome deaths. The only connection between the victims seems to be a ...  Read the complete review

A New York City detective and a health examiner join forces when a series of gory and oddly a like murders take place. The one thing that links all of the victims together is the fact that they all logged on to a horrifically vulgar website. The only way to get to the truth and save another innocent life is for our two heroes to log on. The writers of this film clearly copied the plot from the Japanese Ring: O films, the only difference being is that the victims have 48 hours to live after logging on to the site, where as the ring films you would die 7 days after watching the video. The main idea of this film was to make people more aware ...  Read the complete review

I will be hoenst I am not sure I can add more about this movie than the other people previously reviewing it, but I do need to ad dmy opinion to this movie to ensure that the star rating is accurate. Afterall the more that review it and rate it the more accurate we are. The movie out in 2002, was trying to bring out an idea of the internet being involved in horror and peopel being killed from it. While it was a novel idea only seen a few times prior to this movie, and having atleast a couple of good names in the movie, it is far from being fantastic. As a general plot outline what happens is a number of people are found dead from very mysterious ...  Read the complete review
