lemenos-1 I found this to be a well-executed indie thriller that really brought together disparate ideas into a interesting and compelling story. Not really sure where the negative reviewers are coming from, I guess some people just have to hate.The acting is generally very good, although Glenda Morgan Brown as Granny really stands out--she owns the part and really lights up the screen.I thought the cinematography was exceptional, there were some beautiful shots that really made the movie interesting. There were some very interesting surprises as well, especially the twist ending. What is going on in your small town?
tonyc_27604 By no means believe the reviews that were clearly written by friends of the director or something. This movie is just awful, and like a couple others, I only watched it because of the relatively high rating on Amazon Prime Video. The acting is HORRENDOUS, especially by the guy who plays Granny's son. I haven't seen a performance that wooden since Plan 9 from Outer Space. There were neither plot twists nor surprises. No suspense at all. The plot was dumb and simplistic. No style in the camera-work - looked like it was shot on a cell phone. Best part by far were the bedroom scenes, as that actress is kind of hot. Don't say you weren't warned.
ranch700 This movie has a "Hitchcokian" feel to it. There's an interesting relationship between "Marion" & "Rebecca" and a rather sick little idea that they come up with and act out on. And then there's some other twists and turns that the movie takes from there. It's also shot in a way that moves the pace along nicely from start to finish. I have to say , a lot of people tend to be "haters" when it comes to Indie films, so I encourage most people to take that into consideration when they see negative reviews of Indie films like this. There's going to be a lot of people who just automatically hate it simply because it's low budget, similar to how some people hate all black & white movies because they're black and white or how some people hate all foreign films because they have subtitles and they just hate subtitles. So that's what is going on with so many indie bashing reviews. Please keep that in mind when browsing through those types of reviews. On the other side of the coin, if you're a fan of indie films, and thankfully there are more and more people becoming as such, this movie is definitely worth checking out. Give it a try. And I don't mean give it 5 minutes. I mean, sit down and give the movie a real chance to develop.
Ed Burns This is a taut character driven thriller that reminds me of the great Hitchcock films of the past.The acting is great, especially Glenda Morgan Brown as Granny, and Rachel Alig as Rebecca, the caretaker with a dark secret. These ladies really rock the screen and own their parts.But the acting is solid throughout: Les Mahoney as Ted is very good, and the "king of indie horror" Bill Oberst, Jr, plays against type as a relentless private detective. Their fight scene is memorable.The story is very interesting, and there are some great twists and turns--especially at the end! Indeed, the movie looks and sounds really good, and the images and the music work very well together.Disregard the haters who wrote bad reviews of this film--some people just have to hate, right? Enjoy this special indie thriller.
