Synopsis

The film comprises five stories where a mobile application leads to mystery and horror. In one story, a young woman falls prey to a group of perverts who belong to a sinister network that streams live content online. In another, a voyeur uncovers dark secrets about her neighbors that she wishes she had never known. The third story follows a young woman who uses a mysterious dating app. In the fourth, a group of friends on their way to a cabin stumble upon a sinister occult sect operating behind a seemingly legitimate business. Finally, a boy, manipulated by his father into online dating, discovers an immense power to defend himself.
