TikTok Users Make 2011 Controversial Horror Movie ‘Megan Is Missing’ Go Viral

The 2011 controversial horror movie “Megan Is Missing” has gone viral due to TikTok users who shared their reaction to the film.

The movie, directed by Michael Goi, tells the story of two best friends, Megan Stewart and Amy Herman, who are high school students in North Hollywood, California.

The film revolves around their lives and the days leading up to Megan’s disappearance after she starts talking to a boy online, who convinces her to meet him in person.

Following its 2011 release, the film was heavily criticized over what was seen as sexualizing teenagers, and was banned in New Zealand.

However, critics did note that the film delivered an important message about the dangers of social networking and online predators, Just Jared noted.

Following the growing amount of attention “Megan Is Missing” received on TikTok, Amber Perkins, the actress who plays Amy, contacted Goi.

After learning about the reactions from scared viewers, the director issued a warning to the audience.

“I got a text from Amber Perkins, the lead actress in my movie, that it’s exploding on TikTok at the moment. I didn’t get to give you the customary warnings that I used to give people before they watched Megan Is Missing, which are: do not watch the movie in the middle of the night, do not watch the movie alone, and if you see the words ‘Photo No. 1’ pop up on your screen, you have about four seconds to shut off the movie if you’re already kind of freaking out before you start seeing things that maybe you don’t want to see,” Goi explained.

“Apologies to those who are already posting about how the movie is already freaked them out. Fair warning to those of you who are still contemplating watching the film,” he added.
