    Strange, But quite good!

    There were aspects of this film that were annoying and did not make sense, but it came together to be a pretty damned good horror story!

    The ending explains absolutely NOTHING about the origin of the situation and the root causes of the evil force at play here are left undetermined right up to the credits rolling, but it still was an exciting wrap up.

    The acting was quite good with the main character have a very irritating personality, but that was a flaw in the writing and not the acting.

    By the last ten minutes you have your concept of who is the good guy and who is the bad guy totally upended which was an unexpected twist, but it contributed to the fairly good conclusion.

    The pieces did not fit together seamlessly by any means, but they did bring the film to a satisfying end.

    People Need To Meet Movies Where They Are

    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.

    really wanted to like this...

    What caught my attention was that, according to the PR package, this film won 4 individual awards at various festivals focused on indie horror. But disappointment quickly followed. The premise is interesting. So interesting that some of the critics suggested placing it in the category of "workplace horror," but then remembered that such a category, if it did exist, would have almost no other competing films in it. The idea that a protagonist (Hugh McCrae Jr.) could be so desperate for a job that he would put up with "unusual" workplace happenings is interesting, and might even strike a chord in today's economy. But the followthrough was just not there; the film is way overlong at a 1:45 running length; and, seriously, how many H&S shots of McCrae looking harried or anxious can one viewer tolerate? I think the key here is that indie awards are given out by people who live and breathe indies, and they sometimes forget there is another entire universe of entertainment out there. ((Designated "IMDb Top Reviewer." Please check out my list "167+ Nearly-Perfect Movies (with the occasional Anime or TV miniseries) you can/should see again and again (1932 to the present))

    Really different!

    We liked this a LOT! This was totally a new kind of thing. We found the main character so endearing. This guy was totally sweet and afraid of failure and it was really well acted. Then, he gets the chance to step up and be the hero! He also, seemingly, gets the girl.

    So, if you're not sure, go ahead and check it out. I mean, it's free right now on Tubi. So whaddaya got to lose?

    We thought it was totally worth the good rating. It's kinda tongue-in-cheek and it doesn't take itself too seriously.

    So, there you have it. Our two cents on a really good little movie.

    Don't listen to the haters and just give it a shot. Hollyweird is putting out leftist trash anyways. This has none of that crap.

    Indie for indie's sake

    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.
