What begins as a late-night joke among friends spirals into a surreal and terrifying mystery in this unsettling horror-comedy. When a group of friends, led by the skeptical Jordan Lacy and his more credulous friend played by Zach Black, share a viral story about spotting the infamous video game character Waluigi in their quiet town, they assume it's just an online prank. Their curiosity turns to genuine dread as bizarre, glitch-like occurrences start plaguing their lives, suggesting the digital icon might not be confined to the screen. Directed by Thomas Roslen, who also appears on screen, the film follows the increasingly paranoid friend group, including Erin Diment and Skye McPartlane, as they attempt to document the phenomenon and uncover its source, blurring the lines between internet folklore and a very real, creeping threat. The film masterfully blends dry humor with moments of genuine tension, creating a uniquely modern atmosphere where the absurd becomes horrifyingly plausible. As their investigation deepens, the friends are forced to confront a reality where the rules of their world seem to be breaking down, pixel by terrifying pixel.
