OK, first off, it isn't a bad movie. Hell, for afterdark production it's pretty decent! But... yeah, for afterdark production. As the movie goes, there isn't much to it. The actors are kinda lame, sometimes annoying, especially that stereotypical tortured cop that gave us a stupid cameo of the new treatment techniques for great burned (so very unuseful in the movie). The killing scenes where good one time on two. The story isn't bad. Even if the love story that, so very sadly, composes a great part of the story is kinda boring, the twist ending, I must admit, caught me off guard! It was pretty damn good! (kinda lacked a lot of logic but shhhhhhhhhhh.) Though, that's one of the only interesting things in the movie, and it's ruined by the final scene which is... especially unsatisfying. OK, you could say it was unexpected, but what's better? Classic and satisfying or new and bad? I think the movie pushed it's own luck with what it could get away with that much of a clever plot. It won't save this movie from it's awful... pretty much anything else. Not less than four stars because damn that twist. With all that said, It's definitely one of the, if not THE best movie to come out of afterdark production, and that's saying a lot.

The Siamese twins and the pair of pinheads from Freaks; Basket Case's Belial and Duane; the vampire babes from Twins of Evil; the ghostly girls from The Shining; the sisters from Brian De Palma's Sisters; the gynaecologists from Dead Ringers: just some of the creepy twins to have chilled the blood of horror fans over the years.Jonah and Seth (Edmund and Gary Entin), the telekinetic brothers from Seconds Apart, might not be quite in the same league as these horror heavyweights, but as the stars of an After Dark production that I purchased from Poundland, they did a surprisingly decent job in creeping me out, causing plenty of death and destruction in what proves to be a rather stylish and reasonably scary movie.Seconds Apart starts with a bang (literally), and despite the script occasionally entering clichéd territory (girl sleeping with the wrong twin), director Antonio Negret keeps the pace going and achieves some inspired visuals and credible performances from his cast, with Orlando Jones deserving a special mention for his impressive turn as a cop with a tragic past (and another for Samantha Droke, simply for looking hot).

The "after dark originals" is a great idea. 8 horror films from lesser known directors. Seconds Apart is the best I've seen from this series. A sinister tale of male twins that really packs a punch. Cronenberg's "Dead Ringers" was the last film I saw about twins that was quite disturbing & this film is a great little view also. The acting from the two brothers is first class & the way that it's shot shows a great deal of maturity. Horror films are so popular these days but they seem to go straight for the gore sequences (ala "Saw" franchise). Seconds Apart has some great disturbing moments & a good amount of gore to keep the horror fans happy, but it's the way that it's told, cut & delivered that is really impressive. If you want a great sinister, thought provoking movie then this is the best of the series by far. Excellent!

It's all about telepathy, not that it is bad at all but it wasn't my cup of tea. It do has some really nice shots and mind tricks but the red stuff isn't their. Don't get me wrong, it isn't necessary (think Halloween, Texas Chainsaw Massacre) but then you will need suspense and here it's all about the talking. Be warned, the first minutes are really well done, it do has some suspense and some bloody shots but after the begin credits it falls into one speech after the other. The acting is really okay and the way it was filmed too but if you go into the world of telepathy then I think more like Videodrome or gory stuff like that.
