In Extremis

I am a fan of David O'Hara's. He is a fabulous actor. I would love to see him in more movies. The prior reviews did help me to prepare for the movie. Those who left poor reviews obviously do not understand this type of movie.

Has the feel that they made this up as they went along, saying whatever came to mind, staging what they felt like doing, and care not a whit about whether it made sense. If you like making your own meaning out of this abstract mess, have at it!

If you are looking for a typical "horror" movie, this is not the film for you. It is moody and dark, and you have to pay attention. It's more of a psychological thriller/suspense/drama. It gave me the same vibe as "Jacob's Ladder".

The acting is wonderful. Beautiful cinematography as well. As another reviewer said, you have to pay attention to the details.

Although the buildup takes a while, the payoff is emotional and good. The writer/director is obviously a fan of SILENT HILL, as his movie combines elements of the first 3 Silent Hill games. Give this man a budget, a crew and additional writers, and let him write the next movie.

I am sure this film is not to everyone's taste, especially if expecting a flash bang Hollywood movie that needs no concentration.

For me, that was the charm. I had no idea what to expect, but I was pleased I watched it.

It is a bit of a slow burn, and you need to think about what is going on and pay attention. I really didn't know which way the story was going - which was it's charm.

When the end of the film happened it was a surprise. In retrospect I could see all the clues were there throughout the film.

The acting was superb, as was the production. This film deserves a much higher rating that given here.
