So, 'Girl's Trap – Death Comes Online' from '98 is one of those TV movies that captures the late 90s vibe of online interactions, which feels kinda nostalgic now, doesn’t it? The pacing is pretty tight, which I appreciate in a thriller, and there’s this tension that builds as Silke, the schoolgirl, unknowingly gets tangled up with a pretty sinister character. The performances are decent, especially the portrayal of the two cops; they really bring that procedural grit. There's a certain rawness to the practical effects that ground it, making the horror feel a bit more real. The themes of trust and deception in the digital age are interesting, especially as they play out in such a basic online setting. It’s not your typical thriller, but it has its own unique flair.
