In a time when even the worst movies have decent production values Faye manages to look like it was filmed with a camera phone and no post-production. Faye seems uncertain of its genre at times: Lifetime Movie with random cuts of Jerry Seinfeld-style interludes, then a pinch of psychological horror seemingly as an afterthought. The only horror in Faye is the direction, the sloppy editing, the weak story and the acting. I doubt Faye even had benefit of a script.
Sarah Zanotti who plays the character of Faye unfortunately lacks the charisma and acting chops to carry a film; and it doesn't help that most of her dialogue feels improvised. We don't care about Faye or her struggle: She's annoying, self-pitying and unsympathetic. Faye also feels like it was originally an off, off Broadway stage play of a boring one-woman dialogue that closed its first night and never should've been made into a film. Some stories don't need to be told.
Director Kd Amond appears to have made the artistic choice of using the natural overhead fluorescent lighting of Faye's getaway cabin rather than a lighting rig and diffuser. This gives Faye an unprofessional home-movie look. Faye is a slow-moving endurance test that makes you quickly lose interest in her and you don't care how the film ends, you just want it to stop. Faye is dialogue driven and has almost no action (unless a book falling off a shelf gives you nightmares). There is a conveniently placed Ouija Board, lots of wine consumption, guilt-ridden confessions, a large helping of self-loathing, drunken tirades aplenty and spooky F/X that look like it was designed by a ten-year old.
Ultimately, Faye is an extremely boring time-waster and is one of the films I gave numerous chances to complete but deleted from my hard drive without a second's regret.
Even for the most hardened connoisseur of cinéma de merde, Faye is a hard pass. Your time would be better spent making a snowman out of mashed potatoes.
