This movie turned out to be much better than I expected. It's amazing what was accomplished with such a small budget. It would be interesting to see what Martyn Tott could make with a bigger budget.

The cast is very good - some fine British actors and actresses who were perfect for their roles, as was the main character.

It's nicely written. Some parts seem a bit slow, but it all comes together nicely toward the end. I noticed the excellent cinematography early on: for example, the cormorants flying over the lake.

The movie is not for everybody - a child would prefer something with a lot more action throughout. But I prefer movies like this one, and I thoroughly enjoyed it, especially the last 20 minutes.

The director, writer, cinematographer, actors in the small thriller show that you can make a decent, exciting movie with little budget. Not perfect, but still very good. Ending could use some work, but not terribly unsatisfying. Leads were good, a number of familiar faces from British TV shows. Effort to make it seem a USA location almost pulled off, seemed more Canadian, but made in UK. Director used some very interesting camera and lighting trickicks with his cinematographer that worked just as well, if not better, than spending lots of money on poor CGI. Overall a good time spent.

There are probably no reviews because nobody coul bear to watch it to the end.

This whole film could have been done in twenty minutes if you take out the weird flashbacks which youcan safely skip through.

I think you would have more fun with a root canal.
