The thing these days seems to be slow-burning, character-driven plot lines. Certainly have that here as the two main actresses engage throughout. Nice photography, hits all the marks of horror. Predictable in parts but when you're going with a classic structure, that's just going to happen. Those moments came with a nice pay-off. Reality v. Nightmare situations keep you guessing.

This is a psychological thriller with strong female leads. Using a low budget and limited locations, the filmmakers made the most of it all with the photography. The film has a palpable feel that its creators love and respect the genre and the cast was having a great time.

Holy Smokes , where do I begin on the stupidity of this movie ? First of all Miss gray has to be the stupidest woman I've ever met in my life she has so many chances leave but she just keeps on staying. The whole movie just makes no sense at all the acting is horrendous the old lady you just hate her so bad you just want this movie to end but it keeps going on and on and Miss gray keeps staying there talk about a horrible job this should never been made and what's with the pancake makeup all over that old lady just a horrendous movie avoid at all costs and you will thank me later wow talk about horrible.

The movie gets a 3/10 only because of the premise which I like and the acting of Veronica, that's all it gets. There's many issues with this movie, and I'll cut it some slack as you know the budget wasn't great for this, however, this doesn't mean I'll disregard every problem that it has.

My worst complaint here is the audio mixing, it's terrible! I haven't seen a movie with such bad audio in a lot of time. 90s movies had better audio balancing than this! A character could speak from anywhere from the camera and they would be heard the same, be it next to it or far away, it all sounds the same.

The pacing was also a nightmare. I consider myself a patient person and even I had to skip through minutes of nothing throughout the movie. There's a chance that skipping 15 minutes ahead won't make you miss anything, and this doesn't mean anything good with any movie, even more so when the runtime is on the shorter side for this decade.

Overall, a disappointment with a lot more downs than ups, 3/10, would not recommend.

Warning, do not fast forward any part of this, you might miss something that explains what is going on and you will be forced to rewind it and watch it again.

Veronica Grey (Morgan Boss-Maltais) did play this part well, however, with the pace of the movie a little slow and the runtime too long for this story, I lost interest in the plot and the story itself became a "what" "huh" moment, more than once.

Mrs Bloom (Carla Kidd) play off against Miss Grey well, sometimes and other times her presence was like the "what" "huh" moments I mentioned above.

Joe (Adonis Ringo) brought nothing but "huh" moments to the story, he did this rather well. Perhaps he was only included because his name was Adonis.

I realised that while writing this, I dropped the rating down to 3 "what" says something about the movie. I'm hoping that Morgan Boss-Maltais gets some better roles. Would I recommend this? Nope.

There is little to no consistency in the character's makeup between scenes. That's just one of my pet peeves. The main character misses so many red flags that it is absolutely absurd, and you just want to slap her across the face. Then the character of the Alzheimer's riddled Mother, just does not ring true at all. Her Alzheimer's behaviors do not come and go, in an organic way. She usually comes off as a nasty hateful person who has her witts about her, completely. There is literally only one scene where the patient has a fleeting moment of Dementia, then you never see it again. And it's not all due to the supposed effects of what is happening in the storyline. It appears to be bad story telling and bad editing. The story has so many gaping holes in the plot, that I don't understand how it got past an underwriter's desk.
