He places cameras all over the house, prepared to capture every terrifying moment on livestream. But nothing can prepare him for what happens next: a gaggle of ghouls that threaten to turn his livestream into (say it together, y\u2019all) a deadstream.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">The cast of <em>Deadstream<\/em> is remarkably svelte: Joseph Winter (known best outside this film for a role in <em>V\/H\/S\/99<\/em>) does a great job as the lead, and he does a remarkable job of finding the relatable humanity hidden beneath layers of his character\u2019s toxic dudebro personality. Meanwhile, Melanie Stone (who starred in <em>Little Women<\/em> and, like Winter, in <em>V\/H\/S\/99<\/em>) plays a spooky spectre that haunts our protagonist in more ways than one. And Marty Collins (otherwise best known for starring in <em>The American West<\/em>) plays both a police officer and a man from the early 20th century who died in his sleep.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\"><strong>The Ghosts With the Most<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"515\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/UxlVuqkS.tT18xb5fldgMA--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0OTtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/giant_freakin_robot_articles_628\/6a4fb13fc29dd1896183365168391e53\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\"><em>Deadstream<\/em> swung for the fences and managed a critical home run, earning a 92 percent rating on <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/topic\/opinion\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:Rotten Tomatoes;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">Rotten Tomatoes<\/a>. Critics praised the film for its B-movie charms and cheesy fun factor while applauding the film\u2019s creativity. After all, this is a found footage movie that makes this exceedingly tired horror genre seem frighteningly fresh, something that many horror fans thought was downright impossible.<\/p>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">I have to agree: I\u2019m one of those older horror hounds who feels like found footage peaked with <em>The Blair Witch Project<\/em>, and most movies in this genre (with the notable exception of the V\/H\/S titles) disappoint me. However, I was pleasantly surprised at how well <em>Deadstream<\/em> set up its found footage premise (if anyone\u2019s going to record themselves from countless angles, it\u2019s a YouTuber thirsty for clicks!) while delivering some genuine scares. Plus, as someone who has always found streamer culture bizarre and indecipherable, I thought the otherwise dramatic main character (someone who would risk his life for clicks) seemed all too realistic.<\/p>\n<h3 class=\"mb-4 text-lg font-bold\"><strong>Truly Haunting Horror<\/strong><\/h3>\n<figure class=\"relative mb-4\">\n<div class=\"relative\"><img alt=\"\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"900\" height=\"506\" decoding=\"async\" data-nimg=\"1\" class=\"rounded-lg\" style=\"color:transparent\" src=\"https:\/\/s.yimg.com\/ny\/api\/res\/1.2\/dz4EEJXCUj2Urh4uogVG5g--\/YXBwaWQ9aGlnaGxhbmRlcjt3PTk2MDtoPTU0MDtjZj13ZWJw\/https:\/\/media.zenfs.com\/en\/giant_freakin_robot_articles_628\/61b8ba203b42d0a00e7bf0441373d92b\"\/><button aria-label=\"View larger image\" class=\"group absolute bottom-3 right-3 size-10 md:size-[50px] lg:inset-0 lg:size-full lg:bg-transparent\" data-ylk=\"elm:expand;itc:1;sec:image-lightbox;slk:lightbox-open;\"><span class=\"absolute bottom-0 right-0 rounded-full bg-white p-3 opacity-100 shadow-elevation-3 transition-opacity duration-300 group-hover:block group-hover:opacity-100 md:p-[17px] lg:bottom-6 lg:right-6 lg:bg-white\/90 lg:p-5 lg:opacity-0 lg:shadow-none\"><svg viewbox=\"0 0 22 22\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"size-4 lg:size-6\" width=\"22\" height=\"22\"><path d=\"M12.372.92c0-.506.41-.916.915-.916L21 0l-.004 7.712a.917.917 0 0 1-1.832 0V3.183l-6.827 6.828-1.349-1.348 6.828-6.828h-4.529a.915.915 0 0 1-.915-.915M1.835 17.816l6.828-6.828 1.349 1.349-6.829 6.827h4.529a.915.915 0 0 1 0 1.831L0 21l.004-7.713a.916.916 0 0 1 1.831 0z\"\/><\/svg><\/span><\/button><dialog aria-label=\"Modal Dialog\" aria-modal=\"true\" class=\"fixed inset-0 z-4 size-full max-h-none max-w-none bg-white hidden\"\/><\/div>\n<\/figure>\n<p class=\"mb-4 text-lg md:leading-8 break-words\">Speaking for myself, the movie\u2019s premise (with all its references to <a rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"link \" href=\"https:\/\/www.giantfreakinrobot.com\/topic\/streaming\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\" data-ylk=\"slk:streaming;elm:context_link;itc:0;sec:content-canvas\">streaming<\/a> culture) managed to elevate it above the run-of-the-mill haunted house movie.
