No one will confuse this movie with Citizen Kane or Gone With the Wind, and it's not meant to be an immortal classic of cinema. For what it's worth though, I think nearly everyone seeing this movie knows as much going in. So does it meet or exceed expectations? YOU BET IT DOES, and the star, Brandon Rife, is in my humble opinion well worth the price of admission!Mr. Rife not only holds the screen, but he melts our hearts. He stands apart from the other actors in this film -- many of them quite good in their own right. Rife combines mischievousness with sensitivity and empathy, attaining a quiet and sensuous power that jumps out at you from the moment he gazes into the camera.I VERY MUCH look forward to seeing everything else Brandon Rife does! Casting Directors: CAST THIS MAN UP, please!!!Overall, I highly recommend this film -- especially to enjoy the beautiful and brilliant work of Mr. Rife!

I give it two stars for the cute young flesh on display. Wow, what lovely buttocks Aaron Rife has. I couldn't keep my eyes off them, and neither could the camera. I was trying to make sense of the supernatural suspense tale that enfolded, but before you can find your bearings, it's always something else throwing you off. The first story about the cassette tape is fun, but messy. I thought things might improve by the second, but it's all downhill from then on. The actors are not that hot anymore, the acting is even more wooden, the editing too chaotic, the stories more ridiculous, and it all turns into a complete shambles rapidly. And on another note, what's the point of using unequivocally gay looking actors to pretend being bi-sexual? The scenes where they have to do the obligatory bit with the girls, to get it over and done with, to be able to pass as "straight," are pathetic; utterly unconvincing. None of the guys in this film would touch a female in real life, even if it were with a 10 ft bargepole, unless it's to do their make up. And Cory Tyndall, playing a model, WTF? Who would pay 150 dollars to photograph that disaster of a gay? No one.The fast forward button, was pressed, more frequently, until I gave up on the film altogether.
