We just saw it and loved it. Absolutely excellent acting, script and direction. Gives you the creeps and. showing how behaviour and relationships can be affected through the Internet to an extent that this story would have been far fetched 5 years ago but now you can identify with it and realise how well observed and indeed how realistic it is though terrifying! Well done.
