Negative Positive
Title: Nice box cover, but a big let down quality wise :(
Review: Here's a low budget film that just doesn't cut it. The first scene introduces the poor acting and the bad choice in 16mm film stock. Whatever stock they chose, it was the absolute worst choice for dark scenes!The acting does get better as the movie slowly moves along, but it's not enough to save the viewer from cringing at the horrible cinematography, bad audio, and the cheap finale to the story (although, quite disturbing). There are much better thrillers shot on 16mm than this... try "Primer", "Freak", and don't forget the classic "Texas Chainsaw Massacre"!The biggest downfall here is the poor choice of film stock for this type of story. The grain in the dark scenes really gets in the way of the storytelling. This film could have earned 3 stars if it was shot on a VHS tape, even!
