Should have been more suspicious of all the over the top gushing reviews posted here before it was released on streaming when the film only played in a few theaters. But I was fooled as usual.
"Terrifier" this is not. I'm big fan of that franchise, but "Stream" was just garbage. It felt like just a concept with a script hastily scribbled on the back of bar napkins. The horror icons in the cast are basically used for glorified cameos except for Jeffrey Combs. The rest of the actors are bad. Really really bad. Granted they aren't helped out by the cringe-worthy script with dialogue that felt like it was written by a 12-year-old.
As for the horror, don't expect any. The villains lack any kind of scare factor to the point that their intended victims just bizarrely stand around looking at them for what feels like forever instead of running, which is what they would be doing in a horror movie that was made with any basic competency. Even the kills are boring.
How this disaster manages to somehow meander over two hours despite having a plot that makes no sense is a mystery to me. I would highly recommend not wasting your time or money on it like I did. The only reason it got a 2/10 instead of 1 is because of Jeffrey Combs. He made the best of an awful script and was still entertaining.
