The proposal inquiries style features, narratives particularities and unknown experience in the subgenre desktop horror movies by computer interface or multiple screens. Unfriended 2 - Dark Web (2018), by Stephen Susco, it’s the analyzed production through aesthetics efforts and their technological developments. Standing out by the performance relationship between characters, the movie distinguishes itself by simulating the hypermediated space of the web at the same time that the approach of the criminal appropriation of internet comes near of Thacker’s arguments about the darkness in the horror and the limits of thought.
Keywords: Horror. Cinema. Technology.
