Is The Den Worth Watching?
Yes, it is. I think it’s pretty damn good overall. It was ahead of its time when released (I think) and it does do a lot right despite a few little annoyances. Fans of the above mentioned Unfriended or Host will like it a lot….Probably. Just remember to put a sticker over your webcam from now on, yeah? [Read the full review]

Excerpt: "The Den is a found footage horror pseudo-slasher film ...that follows graduate student Elizabeth Benton as she conducts a research project about the different types of people that frequent social media sites....There are horror film plots that move faster than necessary, packed with nothing but action. There are also horror film plots that crawl at a snail’s pace, creeping along in slow-burn fashion. Then there are those like The Den, that mastered the art of a moderately paced but well-balanced plot...The Den employs a modern spin on found footage, using recorded laptop sessions (of the protagonist visiting social media sites) as the basis for the film."
Overall Score: 7.8 [Read the full review]
