Try harder.

This film required three more rewrites to whip it into shape. The script they went with was student project stuff. Anybody who knows the rudiments of cinema would know this story needed a lot of work and a lot of tightening up.

Music, lighting, acting, pacing, staging and direction was just flat out terrible.

The film has a great premise. With a talented director they could have made a cult classic. Unfortunately the movie starts to go into a tailspin in the first five minutes and is unable to pull out of it's plunge earthward. What could have been a tense Twilight Zone episode ends up a direct-to-video embarrassment.

As for the ending ... give me a break. This is not how you end any film. Reading the reviews up here has convinced me there are a lot of cast and crew writing them.
