Glorious

Originality, good actors, out of the box.

The only thing I can say is: start watching and you won't stop.

No big company would do such a creative movie.

As other reviewers mentioned, this is an original movie. The concept is interesting, there are surprises and a twist i didn't see it coming. Kwanten's acting is wacky and weird, but this is a weird and insane movie and he did what he was supposed to do a character like "Wes". This is not a comedy-horror movie although there are many funny lines and scenes. I liked the comedy element and, generally, this movie kept my interest.

However, it's flawed. Just because it's original, doesn't mean that it's also brilliant. Or even just clever. There are moments that it was getting too weird/bizarre. I love weird/bizarre movies but, in order for a weird movie to be good, writers and directors should handle the subject very carefully and deftly/skilfully. Or else, their movie will look like a parody of what they imagined and try to achieve. There is a line between originality and creativity and this movie didn't cross it.

Too many movies, too little time. There are better movies to watch. However, if you have plenty of time and you love weird and original movies, you will probably like it. It's not a bad /dumb movie and, mainly, it makes sense. There are many movies today that, unfortunately, don't make much sense.

The premise alone should let you know if this is for you. Are you the kind of person would be amused by a Lovecraftian monster in a rest stop glory hole? Does that appeal to your sensibility?

While clearly low brow, it doesn't cross the line into gross out territory as much as it could have, and stays as classy as a movie that takes place entirely in a bathroom possibly could. While there's little that's expressly funny or scary, there's an intrigue to the somewhat novel concept, keeping you interested in how it will all play out. I'll admit that a good deal of the novelty comes from an appreciation for J. K. Simmons, that dude rules, and even though he's never on screen, I can picture him delivering the lines, and that makes me smile a bit.

Its feel is reminiscent of a horror short made for a show like Cabinet of Curiosities or Tales From the Crypt, and with it's lean runtime, it's not too far off from one of those. It's eye on the prize simplicity delivers the goods before it wears out it's welcome, giving you just what you came for, nothing more, nothing less.

This was quite an interesting, quirky and original little film. Great concept with decent special effects, cgi and acting.

The main character, while you can tell he is a good actor, at times felt a little bit... too over the top. This could have been the directing or lack there of, who knows. It also got a bit repetitive in the middle which slowed it down a bit. I found the twist interesting and unexpected and it drew very interesting parallels within the concept that I appreciated.

Regardless, it was entertaining and a breath of fresh air as far as the originality of the concept goes. Would recommend.

As an avid Lovecraft fan, I kinda knew what I was in for and that it would have some good twists and cosmic lore. I was pleasantly surprised by the layers, actors and the very dark final twist, that gave it a delicious aftertaste. The movie wasn't perfect, but for a low budget cosmic horror movie, it was pretty great. I would have liked the main character to be written a little more cerebral and cool headed, but that's just me.

I think the part that made me cringe the most was all the touching of the toilet in the restroom. It set a pretty disgusting atmosphere, which turns out to be quite appropriate in the end.

Overall, very unique and entertaining.
