Another piece of dreck promoted by Netflix. I was lured in by the 6 star rating, and started the movie with genuine anticipation. Less than 30 minutes in I got that sinking "have I been conned again?" feeling. The best part of the entire experience was reading the elaborate over-the-top sycophantic 9 and 10 star reviews, written to pad the ratings. I think the producer would have been better off hiring these writers to put the script together instead of the reviews. The result may have been some pseudo-Victorian / Shakespearean mishmash of convoluted hyperbole, but it would've been a hell of a lot more watchable.
In short: you've been warned. It ain't worth it. Not even a little bit. If you want something well-executed with a not dissimilar sort of storyline, watch "The Endless" instead. . There's an example of a low budget but compelling film.
Since not everyone here saw this movie on Netflix, I'll save this bit for the end, since it's no longer possible to express opinions on Netflix. This is the third movie in as many weeks suggested by Netflix that turned out to be not only bad, but INSULTINGLY bad. And I'm paying to see this?
