This movie has some bad reviews here, but I thought it was quite good. The movie isn't so much scary as it is interesting. I found it very artful in it's delivery of the plot, leaving a lot for the viewer to interpret. Which is kind of refreshing compared to the hit you over the head style of Hollywood plot development.

I also enjoyed how there wasn't a lot of talking in the movie. A lot of the character development was done subtly.

The acting was decent, and the special effects are pretty much what you'd expect for a low budget movie. I found it intriguing and open to interpretation. Very well directed, and a worth while watch.

Whoa Nelly, Where to start! The acting, believe it or not is not that bad (standard low budget fare), but everything else is an absolute mess. the storyline, continuity, direction, screenplay and worst of all the editing are horrendous. It all adds up to a pile of 💩

I have to admit, I was rather surprised by the really well done cinematography of this movie. The acting and the story did not live up to the quality of the "picture", but I have seen worse movies (horror and otherwise) too.

Having said that, the movie has quite a few cringe worthy moments. Some worse than others. The effects are good and the movie is quite short overall ... so there is that.

The premise is nothing really original. There have been many many other movies with certain and slight variations of this theme. Some that come to mind are "The Crow" and "Pumpkinhead" just to mane a few. I'm sure there are plenty of others.

The acting was OK but nothing spectacular. No potential Oscar material here.

The special effects again are just OK but no eye candy here. I always thought blood was opaque however in this movie it looks kind of like dark fruit punch.

There are some serious plot holes throughout the movie. There is such a lack of character development that its amazing anyone watches the whole thing through. Where some very simple dialogue should be, there is none, just bizarre images. Images don't make up for plot explanation. I guess there is a certain amount of viewer imagination and or interpretation required here. I detest movies with plot holes and character under-development.

Anyhow that about sums it up. Enjoy and use your imagination.

Acting was terrible and the plot wasn't original at all. I would it a negative rating if only it were possible so this one star is very generous! This is a new low for low budget movies!
