To Jennifer

Jennifer (Danielle Taddei) is a young actress in Hollywood - and not a
very successful one ... to a point that her best friend from acting
school, Stephanie (Meghan Deanna Smith) steals all her jobs. Why? Because
Stephanie is successfully marketing herself, doing a daily vlog about ...
nothing in particular, really, but her fans seem to like it. Jennifer's
agent (Tony Todd) tells her to vlog as well, but Jennifer's just not
particularly good at it ... and then a sextape of her and her ex (Aaron
Abrams) drops and totally ruins her reputation. Jennifer is completely
shattered at first - but then she sees the silver lining and she decides
to vlog about the total corruption of the vlogosphere ... and to that end
hires socially awkward Butch (Derek Mears) as her muscle to kidnap some of
those who have shared her sex video to embarrass them in front of the
camera, which to some extent would vindicate her in her opinion. Thing is,
Butch might be loyal to her to a fault, but he's also a homicidal
sociopath, Jennifer herself has temper issues, and a bumbling policeman
(Trae Ireland) has picket up her trail - which all make her best-laid
plans veer off into a completely different direction ... First
off, despite being executive-produced by James Cullen Bressack, #FromJennifer
has very little to do with the original To
Jennifer (or its sequel 2
Jennifer) other than it's a found footage film about a psychopath
with someone called Jennifer in it - but that's a good thing, really, as #FromJennifer
comes off as a highly original piece of dark humour and Hollywood satire
that has palpable fun with its concept but also knows when and how to set
its shocks, and it's carried by a bunch of performances that are very
likeable despite the fact that these persons are total psychopaths. Great
macabre fun!
