If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
This story has more twists and turns than a second-rate soap opera.
Blistering performances.
The film never slows down or bores, plunging from one harrowing sequence to the next.
This movie was far too slow-paced to keep my interest. While certain parts of the movie were intense and there certainly were some good scenes, much of the scenes didn't really add anything to the film. Would have been better if it was even shorter.
I was expecting a horror film but instead stumbled upon a nice psychological thriller. Kudos to the filmmakers and the cast. Well done across the board. Very realistic acting, got to care about all the characters. Had me wondering what I would do in all their situations. Mental illness is difficult to deal with, I know. This handled it with empathy. Again, we'll done!
I was constantly on edge watching this film, waiting for the seemingly inevitable hatchet to drop (sometimes literally). Describing any part of the plot feels like it would spoil the experience, because that's essentially what this film is; an experience. The worst part is it is filmed and acted in such a way that is highly realistic, exacerbating the tension. the basic plot, without spoilers, is that the character Wyatt is receiving phone calls at night from a distorted voice telling him of "them". they look like people, but they're bad and must be killed. It is unclear whether this is true or not, or if Wyatt is suffering some manner of schizophrenia, and the fact that it could be one or the other only seems to enhance the terror
I am very easily pleased when it comes to movies. However, this is the first movie I can remember that was so bad I couldn't finish watching it! I stopped at 40 minutes.It's low-budget and nothing happens. No suspense or any special effects. Some mumbling dialogue. I honestly recommend that you clip your fingernails instead of watching this movie. It is horrific how worthless it is.
