A bad director can ruin a film despite the cast and crews best efforts.
The casting was good as regard the main characters but the hot lesbians, whilst pleasing to the eye did the film no favours. I suspected that they were a later addition to spice up what was a rather stilted, poorly directed and edited movie, but it just served to spoil the film further(and this is a straight guy speaking). Anyway, I gathered that this was filmed on a low budget, however the camera work was very good. I am no stranger to film sets so I tend to notice little things. The railway line location they were principally using was disused, obviously so with all the rust, weeds and fallen deadwood. A coat of oil on top of the rails would have covered the rust and given the impression of recent use. An hour weeding, clearing the fallen twigs and uncovering the sleepers would have completed the impression that it was still in use and not just a defunct line to some old sawmill. Brendan Fehr has let himself go since Roswell days. The baggy shirts don't disguise this unfortunately and he walks like someone out of shape too. What would a gorgeous girl like Amelia really find attractive in a back woods short order chef who is his own best customer? Chad Lindberg is not a bad actor but his part smacked of just one take being enough to satisfy Mr A.D. Calvo.
Remake it with a new scriptwriter, with roles for Natassia and Beatrice that contribute to the story. Send Brendan to the gym for three hours a day for a month, and don't let A.D. Calvo direct it again.

This Film is deeper than you think. You have to see it with the Karmhic wheel in mind. I'm not going to spoil the film, but it's more than meets the eye. Think of it on several levels before you review. There is a cult quality to it's form. Give it a good chance and as I said: Look deeper. The acting is right in form. There is deep foreboding throughout. Excellent main characters with superb appearances from very familiar actors. The mood is very stark in contrast to the very lush cinematography. This characteristic alone will keep you guessing. The music score is excellent in both composition and placement. Excellent coverage and interpersonal relationships. Is it confusing? Yes. It's supposed to be, but the payoff ties everything together nicely, and at the same time leaves options and questions open. A great movie for thinkers. Not your run of the mill suspense supernatural thriller. This film has more to it than meets the eye.
This kind of stuff is definitely not my cup of tea, but that doesn't justify this is a crap, absolutely no. I though about Rob Reiner's STAND BY ME, the setting with the rail way in the middle of nowhere, the eerie tale and the mid fantasy atmosphere. Yes, this is a beautiful feature unfortunately not for all audiences. I recommend it anyway. Thanks Amazon prime Video to have showed it.
Saw this on Showtime this week and loved it. Wasn't really expecting anything and was surprised to find a cool independent film on a major cable network. The music was great and the haunting feel of the story made me want to snuggle up with my guy. Googled it and saw the film is a bit old. Not sure why its just coming out. Definitely the kind of movie you want to watch more than once. In fact I've already watched it twice. Lots of twists that put things in a diff perspective. Chad Lindberg is amazing. I love ghost stories but don't like too much blood and gore, so this was perfect for me. Haunting and suspenseful, but not too scary (well, except for one or two good "jumps" :) Recommend it. I think you'll be pleasantly surprised.
I can not understand the high rates because this film is really awful. It was so slow I lost interest by the middle of it. Easy to sort it out, I figured out the plot and the "mistery" in a bit less than an hour. No surprises. Acting was poor. It was really bad. The end was a "Cliché", well seen in other movies. Dating back to "The Others" (Alejandro Amenábar ) for example. The soundtrack is interesting though. I did not get scared in any moment. Some scenes did not seem to be necessary. The female cast is fine. Well do not need to say much, It's not worth watching. As I wrote before, It's slow, boring and totally predictable.
