First off, I have to say that this film was a breath of fresh air in the day and age of over produced pop-corn cinema. The director took what is normally a very cliché genera and did something different with it. In what is normally a blood, guts, and sex filled market, we now have a horror film with heart. My hat goes off to the director and writer for originality and taking a chance. Next I have to comment on the visuals. If you are one of those people who loves a movie with metaphors hidden in exceptional visuals then you will want to check this movie out. Don't expect bloody Night of the Living Dead when you see this movie or a high budget mega flick. It's not. Keep an open mind. If you are a true lover of cinema then you will appreciate what this movie has to offer.
I do have to comment on one review I read though. In one review the poster talks about the bad acting of Beverly Hynds. This is a low budget film. Even high priced films deliver bad performances. It sounds to me like he had a problem more with her performance than with the movie as a whole. Do not let reviews such as this stop you from seeing this film. The poster also mentioned he "will not forget this. Ever." He didn't like the film, but he will never forget it. So obviously the director did his job. He directed a piece of cinema that even HE will never forget. Now I'd say that is one quality that makes a great director.
