You can forget the title Cybernatural from this day forward because Universal has decided to re-title the bloody thriller for marketing purposes. That’s right! A new title they feel will attract Facebook users to see the Levan Gabriadze directed film early next year.
After acquiring it from Blumhouse, Universal has now officially re-titled Cybernatural to Unfriended. Does it sound more appropriate? Indeed it does since the film is about six high school friends who deal with a malevolent force that haunts them during a session on Skype. Unfriended is scheduled for release on April 17th, 2015. The film stars Shelley Hennig, Renee Olstead, Will Peltz, Courtney Halverson, Matthew Bohrer, Heather Sossaman, and Jacob Wysocki.
