Maybe Biting a bit more than They can Chew, these Low-Budget Filmmakers are on Shaky Ground when it comes to the Conceit Proclaiming its Ability to Convey the Inner-Workings of a very Troubled Psyche.
But, the Movie does Manage to be somewhat Intriguing and somewhat Complex for such a Minimum working Budget. The Movie Looks Good and the Soundtrack is Reflective of its Pathological subject matter.
It is want to Give Us more than it can Deliver. Combing, Stalker, Serial-Killer, and Horror Movie Tropes, the Film manages to Touch these Things for an OK Entertainment, there just isn't Enough Time or Money to Due any of it Justice and it Ends Up being an Average B-Movie at Best and a big Disappointment at Worst.
Still, Worth a Watch for Fans of the Psychological Thriller and B-Movies, it is more Emotional than Visceral, so those expecting a lot of the Red Stuff will No Doubt come Un-Glued and Eviscerate.

It's not as brutal as I thought it would be, but it's fairly exciting. My wife and I both enjoyed this movie. Directed well. Excellent acting. Great story (I was speculating and anticipating for much of the film). A pinch of shock value. What more could you ask for?
If I had a "must watch" list this could be in the top 10. I've read some poor reviews of this film, and I simply can't wrap my head around that. I'm assuming these were bias reviews by viewers who dislike horror/thriller films. Even if you don't enjoy them, this movie is still refreshingly well put together. I was never bored at any time. The casting was also very good.

GREAT Movie, Nikki Reed Played Her Part, It Has Some Nice Twists And Turns, In The Beginning I Was Fooled, But Then I Caught On, But Then At The End I Was Shocked, I Would Recommend This Thriller Right Here, GREAT Job!
Jim Whitman (Jake Hoffman) is constantly hounded by an imaginary character (Thomas Dekker) who always questions his manliness. He is a socially-awkward IT guy who creates music in his apartment. He goes to do IT work for student social worker Wendy (Nikki Reed) and her boss Kevin (Scott Bakula). He connects with her and begins a tentative relationship.
Right from the hot librarian, it's obvious that this is an imaginary character. There isn't much of a mystery there and Wendy's best friend is not that difficult either. The movie's strength is based on a realistic portrayal of mental illness. That does depend on personal experience and I have none with that. I do feel for Wendy, but less for Jim. I don't really like the last act where there is suddenly a bunch of new characters. I would prefer to keep the final confrontation between Jim and Wendy along with any imaginary friends. The movie seems to be building up to that instead of jamming in some new people.

These reviews make this film sound entertaining.
The movie is slow.
The backstory is more interesting than the main story.
Meanwhile, no one wants to explain to these characters that everyone has "voices" in their head?
