    Wasn't too bad, I guess...

    I agree with one man that a more detailed events of how she got there would be interesting but it may make you have even less sympathy for the man to see that all acted out. This film about showing you events from a specific point.

    Actors pull together this low budget film

    Although only shot in one location and minimal characters this low budget film impressed. Wish I could have seen more backstory, but still enjoyed the 90 minutes. The actors are definitely something to watch, their performance kept me "captivated." Thanks for this cool little indie film!

    Intriguing Plot But Way Too Many Holes

    I couldn't get over not knowing where/how he saw her to know he had to have her, and how he captured her or lured her into his apartment in the first place and got the contraption on her neck. Had that been integregrated I may have developed enough empathy for either character to want to see the film through. Major plot hole that annoyed me and lost my interest. Shut if off after 15 minutes.

    teaching and romantic, but too sad

    This is one movie that is much different than all other I watched, it is much more spiritual, emotional, psychological, and religious. Did not see any horror in here tough. It gives us insight into relationships, love, life, other people. It teaches us that love and anything in life can't be forced, that not everything can be predicted, planned, and intended. It motivated me to be more careful about relationships, to avoid any possible extortion, forcing, and excessive obsession, to simply do nothing by realizing that relationships is not the guaranteed or reliable way to hapiness. There are strong feelings of romance, love, sadness, hope. But sadness dominates, so I can say this movie is too negative, too sad. Not sad that much in it's events, there are definitely worse events even in more amateur movies, but some background sadness, which is kind of warning, teaching, and inspirational for us. Good thing is that this movie is very real by it's topic and acting, and good to watch for young people today who are just, or who have not yet, fell in love, especially because today population is higher and internet makes any such occurrences and following problems more likely to happen. Honestly this movie motivated me to simply be more satisfied, careful, and to in most cases simply do nothing, instead of getting involved in unnecessary drama or effort. Actors do look good for romantic movies, perfect example.

    SO BAD. SO SO SO BAD.

    I was REALLY wanting to like this movie. The acting is so bad; like, worse than a Lifetime Movie bad. Like, if acting students that didn't make the cut for a prestigious acting school made a movie... but worse. So... newbie actors that used their "lessons" too literally, and completely over-acted, but also just weren't good at it? Screenplay is a C-, at best. Not even laughable it is so bad. Plot holes are in the hundreds... but wait, there isn't really a plot what either. Remember that movie from a million years ago called KIDS... or have you ever seen an "adult film" that attempts a script and "plot?" It's like that. But so much worse. Giving it a 2 for effort.

    • Trivia
      Filmed over only 7 days as a no-budget feature. The director has been quoted as saying this feature "...was an exercise in simplicity, we didn't have a lot but we wanted to prove that this team could create something compelling with minimal funds. If you can't make something with a micro budget, you don't deserve a real budget."

      When William is confronting Claire after chaining her to the sink in the bathroom, a large shadow clearly moves against the wall behind William, even though both of them are still, and there are no curtains that could be blowing to cause it.
