The most boring and pretentious film i have ever seen! A waste of mine and your time.fell asleep 4 times,nothing happens and the acting is crap.Avoid.
Honestly, the first 10 minutes of this were interesting and then it all went downhill from there. The actors were trying their best but the writing was complete garbage and it honestly seemed like the majority of this film was centered around getting the female lead into as many skimpy outfits as possible. Combine all this with completely unnecessary and not plot relevant sexual scenes and I think I can figure out what the Directors true motivation was.
If you want horror, you won't find it here. If you want 'thought provoking' you won't find that either. However, if you LOVE pretentious films? You'll absolutely love this film. Worst thing I ever saw.

A sci-fi thriller with a 6.5 rating...it sounded awesome. I persisted. And persisted. Annnnnd persisted.
What a waste of 90 minutes of life.
Spare yourself the pain.

This seems exactly like a student film trying to pass as a full length film just to serve as some guys' thesis work. The core idea behind it is actually cool, and if this movie was given the proper hard work and love it needed, it could've been something genuinely worth watching.
As it stands, it is simply a soft sci-fi short film that has been padded with an inexcusably large number of meaningless montages. You get a little bit of story, then a bunch of shots of the lead actress in her underwear, or some blurry flashbacks that contribute nothing to the story. It has some good shots, the acting is passable, but the audio design is glaringly bad. You should never be questioning the music choice while watching a movie, but they seem to have had no idea how to enhance the mood of a scene using an apropos soundtrack.
This movie just makes me sad, not because of the story, but because it is just full of wasted potential. Actors who seemed to really be trying, a story that really could have entertained and added something new to the genre, cinematography that was visually appealing but totally out of place. I hope the director of this film learns from it, and next time tries to put everything he can into making the movie a high quality production. A low budget is no excuse! With a good idea, good music choice, decent actors and careful cinematography, even a low budget film like this could be a great watch. Sadly, this didn't meet the criteria of something I would call entertaining.

Thanks to Shortwave I think we have a new definition for the word "boring", if not "extremely boring". First of all I am a fan of sci-fi movies. There is always alot of potential in that genre of movies because almost everything is permitted, even the craziest stories, but it has to be a good entertaining story. And that's the major problem with this movie, it is everything but entertaining. The story is boring and incredibly slow. The acting is a disaster, especially from Juanita Ringeling. She's so annoying to watch that it is difficult to do worse than her. I don't know if it was the director's orders but apparently the main thing she does is walk very slowly and caress all kind of random objects, like a tree, a bamboo stick, a door, a kitchen counter, her private parts and so on. I really struggled to stay awake and I was not even tired. How this movie got those ratings on here is just a mystery to me.
