Where To Watch ‘Megan Is Missing’ Online Nearly 10 Years After Its Release

Although the controversial horror film “Megan Is Missing” was released in 2011, the Michael Goi-directed flick is suddenly in high demand after going viral on TikTok over the weekend.

Luckily for those who are interested in watching the unrated movie, “Megan Is Missing” can be streamed online on several platforms. However, unfortunately for paying Netflix and Hulu subscribers, it doesn't appear the film is available for free on those services.

Interested audiences can purchase a rental of the film from YouTube, Amazon Prime Video, and Google Play Movies & TV. All three services offer a standard definition version for $1.99.

“Megan Is Missing” tells the story of two best friends, Megan Stewart (Rachel Quinn) and Amy Herman (Amber Perkins), who attend high school in North Hollywood, California. The movie follows the lives of the girls in the days leading up to Megan’s disappearance as well as the aftermath.

In the film, Megan goes missing after she agrees to meet up with a boy who she was chatting with online.

Nearly 10 years after its release, the film went viral over the weekend as TikTok users began sharing their reactions to the film. Many admitted they were afraid of the overall message, the dangers of social networking and online predators, and the movie's more graphic scenes.

When the movie was initially released, it was heavily criticized for what some considered to be the sexualization of teens. The film was banned in New Zealand after the country’s Office of Film and Literature Classification described it as “objectionable,” Entertainment Weekly reports.

In light of its new resurgence on social media, Goi warned viewers the film had several disturbing scenes and advised them to proceed with caution.

“Apologies to those who are already posting about how the movie is already freaked them out but fair warning to those of you who are still contemplating watching the film,” he said in a TikTok video on Nov. 14.

Although Goi’s depiction of the threats to teens online was crucified at the time, he has gone on to direct content that has been more accepted by the mainstream media. Since the 2011 release of “Megan Is Missing,” Goi has directed episodes of “American Horror Story,” “Riverdale,” “Pretty Little Liars” and “Nashville.”
