I'm not 100% sure what I was expecting, but from the trailer, it looked like a 'decent' indie flick.
The first 15 minutes or so, are OK...but the constant look of dread, pain...and worry on the lead's face, quickly becomes annoying. I mean it's CONSTANT...in every scene he's in. I'm not sure if this was the plan, but if it was, this really spoils the film.
Besides all that weirdness, the supporting actors are awful. Not a single one shone...even in their own light. To be honest, even the lead wasn't that great. He didn't really stand out as a lead.
The cinematography is good though, but the sound is awful...especially in some of the office scenes...the sound is awful. It sounds like the boom mic is miles away from the actors.
Story was abysmal and almost non-sensical.
Just not a great movie in any way, shape, or form.

Having worked in retail, I could relate to the characters stuck in retail hell. I really like the premise of this movie. The huge eerie store, the retail workers boredom and feeling they are in a dead end job. The setting, a large hardware store is the perfect setting for a horror movie. A new employee realises that there is something wrong with the place he is employed at. The secret is much more horrific than even he realises. The story does manage to build a nice creepy atmosphere and it gives you the feeling that something is...off. Empty employee files, weird noises. Strange sights , the movies does a good job with it's obviously limited budget. A movie like this is not to everyone's taste, but some will find themselves enjoying it.
There were aspects of this film that were annoying and did not make sense, but it came together to be a pretty damned good horror story!
The ending explains absolutely NOTHING about the origin of the situation and the root causes of the evil force at play here are left undetermined right up to the credits rolling, but it still was an exciting wrap up.
The acting was quite good with the main character have a very irritating personality, but that was a flaw in the writing and not the acting.
By the last ten minutes you have your concept of who is the good guy and who is the bad guy totally upended which was an unexpected twist, but it contributed to the fairly good conclusion.
The pieces did not fit together seamlessly by any means, but they did bring the film to a satisfying end.

Don't bother unless you want to fall asleep fast. Any of the 10/10 reviews were done by the director and his family/friends.
The premise had promise, however with the lackluster performance of the lead, the shoddy filming and the far too guessable plot, let's this film down. One of the most annoying parts of this movie was that the characters were so boring that they might have well been played by mannequins, at least then the "character development" choices (ie the lead's constant "anxiety") would not have been present.
If you want a not great but fun retail horror film, watch Black Friday or something similar, as they will at the very least be entertaining.

This is clearly super low budget, but you get the send that it's made with a lot of heart and passion from everyone involved, it oozes from this movie.
It's fun, it doesn't take itself too seriously, and it's a cool concept. If you're a fan or The Store by Bentley Little, this is as close as I've seen to something like that in a movie. This definitely felt more like the kind of weird horror fiction I read.
There are questions in the plot, the acting doesn't always land, and I'd have preferred better costuming for the supernatural stuff, but... None of that kills this. Even when the acting doesn't hit, I feel such an earnest care from the actors that I don't care.
A lot of people demand perfection from small movies, a perfection people didnt even expext from bigger studio movies in decades past. Everything has to be a sleek package these days. I say no, a flawed movie can still be a good movie, and what I see here is passion and a lot of potential, and that is worth supporting.
I'm pretty sure this is my first review. I've had this account for years, but the negativity here inspired me to speak up.
If you want to have some spooky fun, watch this movie and chill out.

Gene Knibbs: If we want this store to succeed and grow, we are gonna need people like Sam Coleman in the Brooke's family - for the culture, for the commitment, and for the CAUSE!
