When a YouTube vlogger was canceled for his stunt that left someone in a hospital, he decided to switch to another platform to reclaim his influencer status. This time he decides to spend an entire night at a haunted house just to monetize his fans.

And since it is all live, the back-and-forth between the vlogger and commenters offers clues to Shawn about how to avoid the horrors of the haunted house!
Find out how he does it all by streaming the movie Dead Stream on Shudder or Prime Video.
A Quiet Place (2018)
You’re not just a passive observer when you see the horror unfold in A Quiet Place; rather you’re an active participant in this one-hour-thirty-minute game of tension!
The movie starts with a scene in a post-apocalyptic world where a family of five – a father, a mother, and their three children, one of them being deaf – tiptoeing around the town store to get the needed supplies. They communicate with each other in sign language, taking incredible care NOT TO make a single sound. From that, you can discern that the world is too dangerous.
Dangers get intensified from the beginning till the end of the movie, with us holding our breath throughout. A Quiet Place offers subtle yet very clever storytelling to build tension and pull the viewers into a world that is terrifying yet exciting.
Take this thrilling ride by streaming A Quiet Place on Netflix.
Get Out (2017)

The introduction of other characters such as the groundskeeper, housekeeper, and girlfriend’s brother make the matter further awkward.
You’ll just have to see the movie to find out how things start to get stranger. The Get Out movie is a slow burn as clues pile up that something isn’t right. Could Chris be overreacting to the everyday racial tension that he experiences?

M3gan (2023)
