I gave this movie a chance after reading the negative reviews... big mistake that was. This movie was a total bore, confusing, and had terrible acting. Avoid this movie!

... Make spooky nonsense happen. Is it aliens? Is it hell? Is there a coherent story? We just don't know. And sometimes heads explode. Overall, it's just kinda dull.

I watched it for free on Crackle and I still think I'm due a refund.

In a word? Boring. Monoliths inexplicably turn up all over the world with inexplicable consequences. That's it really. No one seems to know what's going on. Not the characters. Not the actors. Not the director and certainly not the writers. A genre so bent that NOTHING makes sense and it's all a complete waste of your time.

The concept had potential but the implementation failed miserably. It was told as a series of stories which led to a disjointed and confusing anticlimactic end. I doubt the writers had much more than a 5th grade education and certainly never had a class in writing drama. And, who read this script and thought,"Yes, that sounds good!"? Just wow! The actors were OK, the cinematography was decent, even the background music was passable. But the story just didn't have enough legs to go anywhere. It was obvious the writers had no real concept at all and so the individual stories never became cohesive. The whole thing kind of came off as an indy-art-house picture with no real substance. Don't waste your time.
