Extremely original! Viewing is highly recommended!

In today's society and current day to day happenings across our country, this is a "must see" movie. It makes the viewer think of the "what could happen" scenarios. Great movie.

You will especially love the acting of the main character, Will, who was riveting in his acting abilities.

The fact that the final scenes could very well happen in any situation across our country at any time now is just downright scary. Issues brought up in this movie must be talked about in our country now.

During the whole movie, I was continuing to wonder what was going to happen. It had me on the edge the whole time. Great movie. Watch it!

Thought Provoking and Original

I really enjoyed this movie! Although lower budget, the acting was very raw and authentic. The main character was great and also gave the viewer a creepy vibe. The supporting actors and actresses are young, but have so much potential. I loved the script as well - which was a rare look into the rural parts of the country and even touched on mental illness.

The music was original and evocative - it perfectly fit the mood. The script was original and intriguing - but definitely makes you think. The cinematography had a lot of diversity - I specifically liked the drone shots and the way that the location kind of becomes a character and a mosaic on which to lay this interesting story.

I hope I see more from this film maker and these actors!
