Lost Signal

I wish I could choose a number lower than 1 = awful. Whom ever is responsible for this garbage...go kill yourself. Its over.

2 million budget my left nut. It makes Blair Witch Project look like Ten Commandments.

Try making porn dude. You don't need to have creative talent for that.

See if they need a gopher on a real movie and try to pay attention to how they do things.

I don't want to be rude. But seriously, it really really sucks. Do they have a "movie making for dummys" book? It might be a little above your head but give it a try. Seriously, you have nothing to lose. Or maybe get an internship at IHOP.

Dead of winter, also known as Lost Signal, follows Santos and McCoy, a young couple who are unknowingly slipped a high dosage of LSD at a New Years Eve party. As the drugs start to take effect, and the couple leaves the party, they start to become paranoid that someone is out to get them. After a car accident leaves them stranded in the woods, their trip continues gaining momentum as does their fear.

I found this movie by total accident in the wee hours of the mourning. I was bored and needed some background noise while I was studying for finals. Before I knew it I was drawn in and hooked, not able to take my attention away from the movie. I've seen quite a few movies with the "Bad Trip" scenario, and hated most of them, but what makes this movie stand out from the rest is there is no madman, no monster, you are simply viewing two people who have no clue that they are having an extremely strong LSD trip. The actors who play the two mains do an excellent job of portraying this terrifying situation as well, both are very believable during the entire movie. I really had a good time watching this film. It turned out to be one of those random "it came from Netflix" gems I find now and then when sleep isn't an option. I highly recommend giving this movie a chance, it is very much atmosphere driven so don't expect ton's of story or over the top special effects. If it wasn't for the super cheesy special effects, that caused me many times to be reminded that what I was watching was only a movie due to how silly they were most of the time I would of given this film a bit higher of a score. But none the less I feel its worth your time.

6/10 - Ritualistic The Liberal Dead http://liberaldead.blogspot.com

A couple have just left a new years eve party and then on the trip, they both start feel stranger

Tiff are hearing voices and while Kevin were see things as fuzzy, well I also found the movie to be very fuzzy as well.

As the movie goes on, you not really what is really going one, it really happening, or it is all in their head?

Well it's wasn't all bad, there some parts of the movie that enjoyed but I found most of the movie to be a bit annoying.

There were some decent turns and twist that makes sense before the last scenes but I didn't not get the last twist at the end however it's did surprise me but It's didn't really make sense.

The movie leaves you hanging and without explaining the last scenes.

4 out of 10 worthing watching a least one time.

The cameraman probably had limp arms which caused him to shake... I felt I was on some cheap roller coaster from a traveling fair. The image sometimes blurred and wavering only at the top, to indicate that Kevin had a bad case of intermittent squint caused by some orange liquor shot, laced with LSD (a very nasty prank, I'll admit)... Had me sorry for not having some Gravol underhand...

Repetitive sounds supposed to increase the suspense were only annoying. Music that is just noise. Stephanie calling Kevin Kevin Kevin non stop and dialogues having us wondering where this is going...

And the worst, as far as I am concerned, is the officer postponing providing help in an obvious emergency situation to attend to something that should not take precedence.

While the badly endandered character suddenly stands up like nothing happened, to act with much vigor! Highly unbelievable, while this is not a science-fiction movie, although relating an horrific adventure that is supposed to have really happened.

Which gives a bad horror movie. And an equally unefficient thriller. Killing both occasions to make a good movie.

To be watched when you intend to lull yourself to sleep.

This movie is not a slasher-horror which is what I like about it. Instead of just hacking up a bunch of teens, the filmmakers actually made a story about how bad drugs are and how scary it can be to be messed up on them.

I thought the movie looked way bigger than 2MM and the acting was great. I would recommend watching this movie if you see it on TV or on DVD. It is better and more original than most movies I have seen lately.

I also thought Brian McNamara from the show Army Wives was great as the sheriff and as a director. I look forward to seeing his next directorial project.
