On the outside Adam appears to be a normal teenager, but underneath...his mind has been so rotted by trauma from his past and the gory films he watches, that he has blurred the lines between reality and pretend! This prompts Adam to start killing people in similar ways to films he watches, making sure to put his own little spin on it.

What a scary & crazy film! Love!

WOW I really liked this movie! I really liked the chill factor! i was scared of the Adam character, yet found myself actually rooting for him a little. The gore and death and blood was BIG and I felt it was done right. So often I see movies that try to do this and EPICALLY fail. Not in this movie,. I was nervous at points, chilled at points, and even the next day I was thinking about it. Thats why I had to write a review. Whenever a movie stays with you I think that its a good thing right? So if you like movies that have some good scare and characters that you hate to love this should be it. Ill see this again with some wine and good friends and have a big scare fest! The actors were good and I think the writer new how to do this right!

great horror movie

I have very High standards of what I expect out of horror movies. Anyone can make them gross and bloody. And I've seen that 5 million times. When I think about the best ones It gives me chills just thinking about them. Some (very few) have scared me for months, even keeping me up at night. This movie did a pretty Damn good job scarring me, but doing it right. I enjoyed the gross deaths and how the moan character killed based on his obsession over killers and what can happen. I think that this is good killer movie too. People who like watching killers get their pray and you seeing the build up is good too. I would like to see a part two? Or maybe even a prequel! For sure I recommend it.

Gory and perfect for any horror fan!

I'm a big murder/crazy killer movie fan. When I heard about this movie and how the main character Adam seemed like a normal teenager, but actually hes a crazy killer from watching so many crazy and scary movies I though it might just be OK or typical..But then I started watching it and I loved the craziness of not just Adam, but the transformation of a killer. This had me at goosebumps and made me a nervous wreck during parts of it and that was exactly what I was looking for. This movie is not for the weak of heart! This movie separated itself from the first 15 minutes of madness! I totally dig the ending And was surprised it all sent down the way it did! Worth watching just for the ending! It will make you scared and think!

Just pass

I love horror. This movie was just terrible.

Just long periods of pot smoking, talking and drinking... interspersed with gore for just gore.

Not interesting. I lasted about 30 minutes and then scrolled through the end.

My Pure Joy... (seriously)

I'm not gonna sugar-coat this for ya'll

I LOVE this flick!

James Bressack knocked it out of the park with this film. I'm not giving ANY spoilers.

Don't listen to the negative reviews, this is a true indie classic!

Filled with blood, nudity, and Well, PURE JOY!

Do yourself a solid and scoop this as well as his other flicks (To Jennifer, Hate Crime, 13/ 13/13, etc) GREAT TIMES ARE WAITING!

Seriously!

(Man! Now I gotta watch it again lol)
