(AKA Cybernatural.) The tired found-footage genre gets a potent reset with this modest story about a group of generally unlikable millennials who start getting messages from someone using the Facebook account of a dead classmate who was cyber-bullied into suicide. The action takes place entirely on a computer screen, but director Levan Gabriadze turns this limitation into an oh-so-relatable benefit. There’s some sly humor as well, and the foreshadowing’s hilarious. This may be the rare movie that would be better viewed on the small screen. Even better (a-heh!), watch it on your computer. I hit “Like.” (83 min)
