Rede de Intrigas

To date, Nico Mastorakis's last non-documentary feature and a return to the horror genre, this time focusing on the perils of the internet. Its positioning in time is an odd one, making it partly forward-thinking in terms of certain dangers widely available internet might pose, while in terms of specific technologies (or just a lack of knowledge in the writers) make it a curio of that early era of message boards and "You've Got Mail." There was a bit of a cheap, low-rent visual style that I didn't exactly care for. And while things never quite got boiling the way they did in the Hitchcock films Mastorakis was clearly paying homage to, it was still interesting. I liked this better than the farces that came before it, even if it never really reached the heights of absurdity that characterized what I liked about his earliest work.
