Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.
Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.
There are many points in this movie that make no sense and/or confuse the viewer to no end (until the end). As it starts out, Jeffery meets "Dana" out of sheer coincidence and after first meeting and talking this woman gives him a fake alias "Dana" being the name of her aunt. Question, If you're going to mislead someone, would you give them the name of someone you know and could possibly point the person you're misleading back to you? Though it's planned by "Dana" she doesn't know that Jeffery killed her uncle till close to the end (obviously) but, why is the only evidence a Rosary? Also, why did she mislead Jeffery from the very start if she didn't know he killed her uncle till close to the end? Also, on Jeffery's quest for answers, if anyone has watched this film, I believe that he takes a cab back to his uncle's place and tells the cab driver to wait for him, he goes into his uncle's house, takes a shower but never goes back into the cab. I won't rag on this film due to low budget production, but I will rag on it due to the fact I had to turn on the subtitles just to understand what they were saying in the movie. Most of the time, the actor's volume in their voice was so low that I thought they were just mumbling to themselves.
This movie is psychic. Its not meant to scare you, or amaze with dialogs. Yet it touches you from the depths. Even in the very beginning, they use white screen, that unconsciously attracts your attention. The music, or should i say, sound vibration, were were well put together on the occasions. Even for a psychic movie this was very creepy. It could fit in Horror genre too. Whole movie goes from elements, and they even use flashes to, again, contact your subconscious. It did was overacted, and the camera angles were far from perfect, but the general idea of movie, and the way they put it in does affect you. Im sorry to confess, but this is one of the rare movies that will go deep into my memory. The feelings it left were strong. The ending is left open, once again, letting the watcher to interpretate, therefore creating an ending for his possibility of thinking. This movie is not for everyone. Brain-dead action lovers should skip it, you wont find action here. The ones who do like psychology movies may watch it. Thats the movie for the small, but strong, circle of people, and I'm happy to get into it.8/10. It looses 2 points for the proportions mentioned above.
I think this movie was pretty good for a low budget Philly movie. It contained some basic elements as twists, who done its, and so forth. These elements keep you guessing, causes you to wonder and be confused, as well as makes you jump at times. There is an artistic use of lighting, as well as the volumes of voice. Then there was the purposeful absence of facial expression when called for. All the makings of a decent flick. Everyone wants to be a critic.The movie was good enough to be selected by one or more film festivals and get a distribution deal, which is a lot more than what some of you critics can boast about. So there.
O.K., just saw this and thought I'd say a little something while it was fresh since there's no other comments. This is low-budget film backed by Lion's Gate Entertainment. I admit that was the main reason I watched it. Usually I'd put my money on those guys. It paid off well enough. First let me say, if you don't like those youtube videos where you are staring at something harmless like an empty room and after a few moments goes by all of a sudden there's a high pitched squeal from a demon lady ogling you then DON'T WATCH THIS MOVIE. Chances are you are gonna jump a few times during this. The colors of the film itself are the wash-outed look of "The Matrix" movies (when its not in a black and white dreamscape) and in my opinion work really well. Other than that there isn't much more that I can say about my opinion other than I was entertained. Some of the acting from secondary characters left much to be desired (including the young Dana, the old Dana was o.k.), you'll know when you see. I'm not gonna harp or rave every detail but the film did work, holes and all. The dreams got a little confusing sometimes and I felt I wasn't sure what did happen in real time by comparison but, the film stayed interesting if not riveting from start to finish. The rest contain spoilers...The story revolves around and is seen through the eyes of a young man named Jeffery. At an early age Jeffery saw things, dead people, that nobody else could. His father, who hasn't been right since he lost Jeffery's mother during childbirth, ruefully disbelieves him when Jeffery tells him he has seen his mother and has him committed to a mental hospital.Years later, Jeffery finds out that his father has committed suicide and when he is released stays clear of his house. One night he bumps into a girl(Dana) right after he has "seen" a dead person in an alley who seems "see" her also. They talk for awhile over coffer until Dana has to go with the request Jeffery help her the next night deliver food to the elderly. Jeffery shows up and meets Paul whom he assumes is Dana's boyfriend who drives them both to their delivery points. Paul doesn't like Jeffery from word go and tells him to stay away from Dana. Later that night a distressed Dana calls Jeffery and asks him to pick her up because Paul had been "drinking and acting weird". She asked if she could stay at his place and Jeffery agreed, she could have the bedroom he'd stay on the couch. Jeffery awakens to a crash and Paul coming at him with a baseball bat. Paul puts him in a coma for almost a year and a half.Jeffery must figure out what happened to him and why. Who is Dana? Who is Paul and why did he try to kill me? With nightmares and spooks behind every closet door, this was a pretty fun low-budget film.
