Its not a horror film with Ed Harris as the lead, despite the poster.
4 September 2022
There will no doubt be a lot of disappointed reviews of this film given it heavily markets itself as a film with Ed Harris as the star when, in fact, he has about four minutes of screen time here.

That aside what you have is an interesting idea for a film which, in the end, doesn't quite live up to its script.

Edited out of sequence, to presumably try to interject some interest or drama, it becomes a slightly confused film. For a film that has principally two leads its important they they both be competing characters. The lead actor, also the writer and director, is the main focus of the film and perhaps should have remained behind the camera as the performance given is at times uneven and not very convincing.

The film is quite well shot, though occasionally lighting changes from camera angle to camera angle, enhancing the confusion over the editing and timeline.

Clearly a film made on a limited budget and with a simple but interesting idea at its heart which it sort of fails to explore in any satisfactory way.

The title was quite a clever double meaning though combined with the 'horror movie' style poster perhaps this also is more misleading than helpful.
