Potential but failed
The premise of this film had potential to be a really good enjoyable slasher but it failed. Low budget doesn’t always mean a bad film but think it does here. Caitlin Gerard as Ashley is appalling in this. The rest of the cast is better but not by much. Still watched it. It was OK to pass the time. Needs more gore to be a slasher horror or needs more psychological twists to be effective. I can watch many different types of horrors and whether they cost 10 dollars or 10 million dollars to make, usually I find something enjoyable about my favourite genre. Not this time. I got bored. And Ashley screaming just made me want to vomit. I think even if the acting was slightly more convincing it would be a better watch. Alas it isn’t so.

A slasher movie that failed to slash through where it counted…
Having grown up with slasher movies, and still enjoying them today, it is always nice to see a new addition to the genre. However, most of them fail to make a lasting impression, and “Smiley” was just one such movie. Sure it is a great attempt at a modern and up-to-date slasher movie, trying to incorporate the Internet into the frame, but the movie was suffering from that special touch that slasher movies had back in the late 1980’s and up to the early 2000’s.

The story is about an urban legend about Smiley, that he will appear online and kill anyone you are video chatting with, if your desire to kill is strong enough and if you write “I did it for the lulz” three times.

Simple enough storyline, but it just didn’t have much coherency after you have finished the movie and realized the story behind this Smiley killer. You especially sit there with a sense of “what is the chance of Smiley actually going to that particular user online, when there are billions of online video chatters?”

But the movie does have some good moments. There are some fun scenes and some good enough deaths. But in overall, the movie is not scary and Smiley surely doesn’t come off as intimidating or scary at all. He is lacking personality and style, and he has a long, long way to reach up to the ankles of iconic slashers such as Jason Voorhees, Freddy Krueger or Michael Meyers.

It is not all bad, though. I will say that they had some good enough talents on the cast list. People did good enough – and convincing enough – work with their given roles. However, it is just not memorable and a couple of days after you’ve seen the movie, they will all have blurred out of your memory. The characters weren’t particularly memorable.

Fun entertainment, sure, but a movie that will stand out and make a lasting mark on the slasher genre? Hardly!
