A pleasant surprise. I like mysterious films, and this one is exactly what I imagine when someone says “mysterious”, and that’s why I’m willing to forgive it more than other viewers. One thing is certain, though, Eric Hurt, who directed and wrote the film, really needs an editor to help him a little with the script. He does bring in some interesting and original ideas, but instead of enjoying them, I lamented that they were not exploited and developed as they could have been. This had some truly great potential. But well, I still liked this pleasant mysterious horror-thriller snack. The atmosphere is OK, the premise is pretty good (something like Dead End, but more developed), and it’s well made. 6+/10

The film is one of those interesting attempts in the independent horror film scene, but it's definitely not polished to perfection. It can't be denied that it primarily focused on atmosphere, which is commendable because that's often not seen in mainstream films, where it's clear from the outset that the main goal is to get people into movie theaters. Still, the film didn't fully captivate me enough to give it more than 40%.
