maybe a bit naive to think but i think that amateur movie like this weren not make anymore in this era and most certainly do not receive a global release . the movie really surprise me how incredible amateur look this movie be . not only with it acting and visual style but also with it technical aspect and such a the editing and camera positioning . especially the editing be extremely lack at time . it make some sequence come across a disjointed and confuse . also the weak camera position most certainly doesn not help all of the sequence . at time the movie really look and feel a if it be be make by a couple of high school student who decide to pick up a camera and start shoot an horror movie . the movie just isn not ever tense and scary or mysterious and be also lie a big problem of the movie obviously . for a genre movie it just do basically everything wrong to reach a good enough and effective end result . the musical score be also quite horrendous . it a very simple typical kind of movie score and that be too prominently present at time when nothing be happen in the movie and not present at all or not good enough at the tense or scary moment of the movie . the music have some huge miss in the movie and it could have truly enhanced some of the scare moment and tension of the movie at time . of course the story also doesn not help much . the movie doesn not have the most incredible pace and story flow . the movie also try to be more clever than it really be and by put in many plot twist and make thing seem different than they truly be . without doubt they also do this to make the movie original . the result however isn not much good and since it make the movie unnecessarily difficult to follow and especially toward the end and when twist and false twist follow each other rapidly . through the many twist the movie also start to make less and less sense . the movie be fill with some gaping hole and the more you actually start think about the story and the less sense it start to make . not only be there many improbability but also many thing that just plain good old fashion plot hole and mistake and other thing that do not make much sense . judging by look at this movie mr. woelfel ( be that even a real name . ) watch a bit too many japanese horror and john carpenter movie . in it style it mostly try to impersonate japanses movie and in it story and storytelling and character it mostly try to impersonate john carpenter horror movie . nothing wrong with impersonate different style and apply them to your own style film make but the style just doesn not work out and mainly due to it poor budget and weak editing and story flow . it perhaps even a bit sad to see at time how hard they try and without a good result . i have no idea who jay woelfel be before this but look at his filmography he seem like a regular b horror movie maker and who just isn not the most talented or visionary person around and no matter how hard he ever try . he be one of those typical person who think he can write and direct and produce and edit and compose all of his own movie . and do he think he be brian de palma and with use all those redundant and completely pointless split screen shot that do not add anything at all . yep and i think i be go to watch more woelfel movie alright . yes and it true that the movie be so bad at time that it become good . it unintentionally funny at time and due to how clumsy it be make and how bad the acting and dialog be . who ever tell those person in this movie that they could act in movie . grant that the script with it many weak and often pointless dialog also doesn not help them much but honestly and it obvious as well that the actor just do not have the talent for the job . on a positive note and the make up effect be quite good look . same go for the simplistic but effective special effect . with the same story material but more money and real professional involve this movie possibly could have be a perfectly good genre movie to watch . but not now . negative .
