I'm a sucker for creature movies, and I enjoyed the creature in this movie. The special effects were sometimes quite adequate and other times a little silly (usually while stationary). The film itself never fully commits to being a horror movie, but I still found it enjoyable enough. The story was solid, more so than most of these kinds of movies.The acting was solid. The characters were solid. The logic defying stupidity that plagues characters in horror movies was fairly light. The creature was a cross between the pixies from Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets and the creatures from Don't Be Afraid of the Dark, and I loved it. Should you see it? I have a wall of horror films, and if I were to buy this on DVD and add it to my collection the overall quality of my collection would increase slightly. If you like creature movies, then I'd say give it a try.

Was expecting this to be terrible but this wasn't half bad. The special effects aren't the worst & the main actress is pretty good. Amusing approach to horror. Stick around at the end of the credits because you see extra bits.

As soon as the movie starts, with a chick in a car nodding on real bad music, you get the feeling this is going to be a B-movie. But I've seen good B-movies before so why not giving it a shot. The first half of the movie there is some mystery and the story is entertaining enough to watch even though there is not much 'horror' going on for a horror movie. Penelope Mitchell is doing okay as the main character, as well as Kyle Gass playing the handyman. The acting is all okay aspecially for a B-movie. And that it is a B-movie became all clear at the end, the so-called horror part. They obviously didn't have the budget to create a decent monster. It's more laughable than anything else. I guess to watch once it's just about okay. Don't have too high hopes.

It's a bit slow at times, but still held our attention throughout the film. I read a review that criticized the actresses "hotness." I don't think it would be possible for any actress to keep her "hotness" in this role. Also, enjoyed the role of Terry the handyman. Good ending.

Acting was good across the board. Story was fine, but moved pretty slow - not much happens in the first hour. Could have used more comedy, tone was all over the place. If Gremlins only had a single gremlin and it didn't show up until the last act of the movie, it would be this. I liked the ending. Can't say it was scary at all, but it was a serviceable Creature Feature that is worth a watch.

A slow yet solid movie with good acting, nice production value and an excellent last act!

"Apartment 212" is a pretty good horror story, as a young woman definitely moved into the wrong apt.. After a neighbor upstairs cries night and day, and keeps her awake, and then blows her brains out, she all at once starts breaking out in sores all over her body. She had shop lifted a mysterious box from a shop and took it home, and it ends up causing her some severe trouble. It's nothing special, but I liked the characters, and the story has been done many times. I would recommend it, just for fun, because it was well done and pretty entertaining. 3/5

I don't understand that high score. the film is dragged and slow, all the characters are boring and you will wish each of them to die. the creature is very dull, it does not scare. the drama experienced by the protagonist is much more interesting than anything in this film ....

I had no idea what to expect from "Gnaw" (aka "Apartment 212"), aside from it being a horror movie. Which, incidentally, was also the sole reason for me picking the movie up and deciding to give it a view.

While writers Jim Brennan, Haylar Garcia and Kathryn Gould did manage to put together an interesting enough story, then it should be said that this movie is rather slow paced at the helm of director Haylar Garcia, for better or worse. Sure, the movie was gradually setting up the atmosphere and introducing the characters, but it just took way, way too long in doing so, and the movie suffered from that, because nothing much happened throughout the first hour of the movie.

With that being said, don't get me wrong. Sure, it was somewhat of a drag and an ordeal to sit through the first hour with so little happening, but the last 30 minutes or so of the movie, well, see now that is where it got interesting and started to really pick up the pace. Just a shame it took an hour to get there. The last 30 minutes of the movie luckily managed to steer the sinking movie back on track and salvage it enough to pull it out of the generic and mundane highway, to the point where it actually was worthwhile watching.

While I can't claim to be overly familiar with Penelope Mitchell (playing Jennifer in "Gnaw"), then I must admit that she really handled the lead role quite well and lifted the movie quite nicely with her performance.

"Gnaw" is frightfully devoid of scary things actually. While it spent an hour setting the atmosphere, there was hardly nothing spooky or scary about that whole hour - aside from how long it took director Haylar Garcia to do so. And while the last 30 minutes of the movie sure was a wakening up call for the movie, it hardly was laced with much of anything scary.

I will say that the creature design in the movie was actually quite good, and I loved the way the creature looked. Just a shame that it had so little on-screen time. But the special effects and CGI team definitely also lifted up the movie quite a way with their efforts, getting the movie lifted out of the mediocre gutter.

All in all, a slow-paced movie that eventually becomes worthwhile watching, but hardly a horror classic in any way. And this is really not the type of movie that you will watch more than once, because there just isn't enough contents to the storyline to support multiple viewings.

I have seen horror movies by the score and can say that this is one of the most avoidable movies you'll ever see. First of all, nobody will get scared for a second, even a baby. Then, once you understand the plot, you'll believe that this is a joke. At last, when you realize what the director really meant, you'll swear you'll not make the mistake to choose a movie like this ever again.

A beat-down wife runs away from her abusive marriage to start a new life. The apartment building she moves into is on the seedy side. So much so that her neighbor downstairs offs herself leaving behind a health hazard of an apartment. Once the city has cleaned the suicide apartment our heroine finds and takes a beautiful little box from the pile of stuff. Her troubles start. The box is indeed beautiful and the demon is great, too. Its look and movement both.

I think this movie is waisting time...you´ll wait near end for some action..,and the german speakers were outstanding bad....

My first clue should have been the very shoddy intro with the black and white freeze frame shots. Very very cheesy.

Acting was really good across the board, the young actress in this was amazing. The direction was well paced, characters were believable, sets, if U can call them that, were realistic.

The ending went the way i thought it would, but it was still an excellent addition to the genre.

If U like suspense and plot build up in your horror movies minus buckets of blood (but still some 'icky' is in the movie), with very good acting for most of the characters, U will enjoy this

Straight away, you should know: this movie's horror aspect only really comes in at the last 30 minutes or so of the film. This is a story about a woman who escapes her abusive ex, steals a demonic box from a shop, and finds herself waking up with sores and bite marks all over herself. Most of the plot comes from the drama and mystery, of what is doing this to her, what happened to her neighbor, and what her ex did to her to make her run away. If you enjoy storylines like that, you'll have a good time watching. If all you want to see is the horror and the creature, it doesn't come until the very end of the movie. It might be boring to some, but my interest was held. The payoff at the end was worth it. The creature was very well designed, and in my opinion, was actually kind of cute. The ending was very satisfying to me as well. It's something you don't see in many movies. Definitely worth a watch at least once.

I honestly don't even know where to start with this. Good premise. Nothing super original, but good. The acting by every single actor is atrocious. The lead, Kyle Gass, the ex-husband, the landlord...all terrible. The script didn't give them much to work with, however. Every trite thing you could possibly imagine being said, is said, and by people doing a terrible job. The final 30 mins I'd probably rate a 6 or 7, the first part I'd give a 3 to. There seriously wasn't a single character that wasn't played poorly. I just cannot stress it enough. If you don't mind wasting a solid 50 mins of your life (for the first part of the film), watching piss-poor actors reading a terrible script, then this film should be okay if you've got a Wednesday evening to yourself. I was just so disappointed in the acting out a terribly written script. There are moments of suspense and stuff toward the end. The beginning is just a bore without many answers, acted poorly.

Halfway through and I just wish it would eat her a bit faster!!!
