Featured reviews
Theres a good story and horror concept in here somewhere. Unfortunately, it is lost in the poor writing, excessive dialogue and excessive scene lengths.
The screenplay is weak. I actually felt like Tom Sizemore was ad libbing his lines, and improvising off the other characters.
I respect Tom Sizemore, but he's just not together in this film. His lines are not clear or appropriate for the situation and he repeats himself.
This film is shot beautifully, but there are too many scenes, and the film could have been edited by 30 minutes.
I watched it over two nights because it took so long to develop.
It would have been a really good 90- minute horror film with less dialogue and quicker pace.
I salute the concept.

I like Tom Sizemore to begin with he's a solid actor and this being his last movie I had to see it regardless of the reviews. I thought it was excellent in many ways, very edgy with plenty of dingy and dark spooky scenes. I was trying to figure out what the hell is going on and where this was going. Did a good job of keeping my attention and kept me guessing..
I think the entity characters look was pretty wicked, kind of reminded me of the movie seven. Remember the guy in bed that looks dead but wakes up. Oh yeah, anybody that rated this low on the scale needs to watch it again without being distracted! Gave Tom an 8 on his way out, be careful this movie could be cursed? 🍿 RMS.
The idea was not new, but was decent. Some of the acting was good, most was painful. RIP Tom Sizemore, but darn, he did a terrible job. The story line was so convoluted because it didn't know whether it wanted to be a horror movie, a folk tale, or a drama. This desperately needed a better director to help it choose its genre, and it needed a better editor to cut it way down. I actually fast forwarded through many scenes just so I could get through it. It gets 4 stars because I was actually interested enough to see it through to the end, albeit by skipping a few scenes here and there. If you have nothing else to do one night, you could watch it, but be prepared to be patient and fast forward here and there!
If you are looking for people shooting 1000 yards past the effective range of a weapon from a car flying off the cliff and doing a ninja roll to escape all injury. Then this isn't the movie for you.
Just a good haunting story, that reveals itself slowly but tantalizingly. If you like actual storytelling this is your kind of movie.
The acting, directing and production is solid. It's the story itself that's compelling about this movie. Telling you much more would give away part of the story. It does roll on at it's own slow pace and deliberately pulls you back at times. There could have also been a little more clarification on a few things. That'd be my only real complaint.

The movie is simply terrible but the acting manages to be even worse. Its almost funny, like some kind of parody.
You keep asking yourself which One is the worst because they all sucks so bad, its amazing.
