This is a very telling first film from a talented writer/director. Production and some of the acting may be rough on the very edges, but the film's tone is poignant and gripping and the leads are strong -- there is a constant heaviness, an anxious quality that resounds even when the film hits slightly offkey. To create that kind of atmosphere with a bare bones budget is the kind of directing that can't be taught.
I suggest anyone who is into psychological thrillers to check this film out. It's low budget, suburban location and characters just adds to the creepy feeling that you could be watching this go down in your own town.
I hope we see more from Mr. Pereira.
