Interestingly weird; at the same time extremely difficult to follow..
InDyingArms25 October 2015
Apparently this guy heads to Thailand in order to find out the reason on why his brother attempted suicide. Doing so he encounters this.. entity? The plot is honestly extremely confusing. The film attempts to build up a story, as well as a twist, but instead makes a very weird plot / story that honestly doesn't make any sense when broken down. The twist in this movie was very mediocre, and, again, didn't make any sense whatsoever, making this film even more confusing than it already started off to be. The characters in this film were literally just there to kill time. We get little, to absolutely no information, or depth with them at all. Some of the characters that showed up randomly at times literally didn't make any sense whatsoever, and just boost the theory of them being there just to kill time. The movie featured little, to no dialog the entire time, and when dialog is delivered, it didn't really make any difference, other than to serve the purpose toward getting these characters through the horrendously confusing situations they're put through. Some of the decisions of this film are just completely strange, and unexplainable. There's a scene where the film takes a "comedic" turn, giving us a montage - like scene on how to supposedly cut up a body?.. I truly have no idea, as the film just throws some of the most convoluted, most strange elements I've ever seen in a horror movie.

In conclusion.. wha? This movie is confusing on the most unbelievably strange levels. We have an unexplainable plot, executed in one of the weirdest ways I've ever really seen. The characters are never explained, and have absolutely no depth; at the same time doing some of the weirdest, and even stupidest of things. Guys, I understand this is a micro-budget film, and I can completely understand it's extremely hard. But the elements still apply, and there were literally none in this film. On Top of that, this is one of the strangest, if not, the strangest film encountered in 2015. And not in a good way. I don't recommend this film, there's too much damage to really say much good about this. This is a weird, extremely hard to follow horror film that doesn't make much sense at all.

Tiny scale indie shot in Laos
Leofwine_draca14 July 2017
Warning: Spoilers
When you see an indie that's been directed and written by, as well as starring, the same guy, you know that chances are it's going to be a load of rubbish and so it proves with ISOLATION 119. The sole interesting thing about this effort is that it was filmed in Laos, an extremely unusual location for sure, but sadly little is done with that setting. This is a single person film for the most part, chronicling a character being driven out of his mind, but little is made of the premise and it all feels very predictable on what is a tiny scale.
