Thriller. Horror Alice (Madeline Brewer) is a cam girl, a paid entertainer who performs for viewers via webcam on an adult website. She keeps her performance work tightly sandboxed from her personal life, as it must be. One day, Alice finds herself unable to log into her account. Someone is already on, using her profile. She hits the site as a guest and discovers that somehow, against all reason, she’s been replaced on her page with an exact duplicate of herself. [+]

	Author	Review
United States	Nick Allen rogerebert.com	"It all very much has the air of a feature-length 'Black Mirror' episode (...) 'Cam' is a gripping nightmare."	POS
United States	Stephen Dalton The Hollywood Reporter	"A fresh and gripping tale (...) It draws on primal fears reaching back through centuries of folklore, psychology and popular culture"	POS
United States	Dennis Harvey Variety	"There’s not much depth to this low-budget but resourcefully flashy enterprise (...) [It] should appeal to genre fans looking for something different"	NEU
United States	David Ehrlich IndieWire	"[A] clever and unnerving mind-fuck of a movie (...) Played to obsessive perfection by 'The Handmaid’s Tale' star Madeline Brewer"	POS
United States	Kalyn Corrigan Bloody Disgusting	"'Cam' is a fascinating and surreal deep dive into the complex universe of social media platforms and the intricate and undervalued life of a sex worker (…) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Brian Tallerico rogerebert.com	"This is the kind of clever jolt to the system we want from horror thrillers—an unexpected commentary on today’s society burrowing its way through an intense story (…) Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Daniel Kurland Bloody Disgusting	"[It] finds very real insecurities that lie in all of us and then blows them up to take them to a truly terrifying place."	POS
United States	Katie Rife AV Club	"'Cam' is a rather brilliant contemporary take on the Hitchcockian identity thriller"	POS
Canada	Kurt Halfyard Screen Anarchy	"'Cam' threads the needle by effectively being both literal and metaphoric (...) A prescient example of astute horror filmmaking"	POS
