U Want 2 Kill Him? (2014)

An impressionable popular teen Mark (Jamie Blackley) hooks up with Rachel (Jaime Winston) on a chat room and soon an intense 'relationship' starts, but this relationship has devastating consequences for Rachel, her family and Mark.

Ignore the rather sloppy title, it makes the movie sound like a cheap teen slasher flick, this movie is incredibly based on true events that took place back in 2003, and is a slow burning, intriguing tale, showcasing the manipulative power cyber-talk can have, especially on younger more impressionable minds.

This is a powerful drama with a strong cast both young and old, and all the more fascinating knowing that this is quite accurately based on true events, though because of their ages, all the real life peoples identity's have been protected.
