Featured reviews
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.
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.

Do not waste your time bad acting bad directing one scene he sneaks into a locked room then when he leaves he leaves the door open. The guy never notices the locked "room " is open awful directing and producing the slips up they let go. The characters are unbelievable as human beings let alone their characters the acting and script was that bad. My life is worth less for having watched this that time is gone don't make the same mistake. I have to keep writing to submit this what else can I say there is nothing good about this movie at all except maybe the woman actor maybe better than this movie i wish her luck and a better movie in the future.
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.

Cleaning my toilets would have been a better use of time, and it's more stimulating than watching Human Resources.
My hens lay better eggs.
If I saw this on an airplane, I'd walk out.
I would have turned it off, but it put me to sleep first.
It makes cardboard look talented.
The only mystery is wondering whose parents financed this flop.
The real horror is that the director is old enough to vote.
Inspired by a spoiled teen's summer working in retail.
Pacing was slower than office wi-fi.
Visually stunning...if you've never opened your eyes before.
It was like watching paint dry, if the paint was also bad at acting.
AI is more creative and entertaining.
It's a thriller with all the thrills of a quarterly budget meeting.
Mystery solved - the director hates audiences.
Scariest part was realizing it wasn't over yet.
