I haven't seen 'carnival of souls' which some reviewers have suggested this film imitates. But this was a pretty diverting hour and a half of cinema. Full of atmosphere, great visuals. Some elements recall David Lynch, others 'Don't Look Now', others various horror movies and devil movies from the seventies where paranoia is the overarching theme. A good film to get lost if one has a couple of glasses of wine and a desire to flirt with the dark side. Last couple of minutes are a bit of a disappointment but they don't ruin the overall effect. Probably a 'cult' film eventually... Oh - I've just been told that my review doesn't contain enough lines so here is another line. And this is another one. Is that enough?

After a car accident involving her and her friends, a young woman becomes increasingly unhinged with the belief that someone is stalking her as everyone else around her fails to understand her situation.An absolute piece of junk, which has so many flaws it's hard to know where to start. First off, the twist ending at the end is so blatantly obvious that there's no surprise at all when it's revealed, the tame rating never allows it to do anything and the fact that there's no deaths, no kills or anything at all beyond her acting scared of her shadow makes this one just so boring and dull that it's hard to get excited about anything. Even the fact that the lifestyle that they live out isn't exactly all that interesting is another factor to overcome. Even more depressing, it doesn't have a positive aspect beyond a professional sheen, so overall, this one isn't worth it at all.Rated PG-13: Violence

I've seen it a while ago, i spent my precious money on renting this piece of crap. Seriously i was traumatized, mostly because it's one of those pseudo-horror movies which ends to be a great disappointment though you already know it's gonna be bad, but you never expect it will be THIS bad! I don't know what the author was thinking, i guess his brain was overflowing with stupid ideas and he had to put them all together and then he thought "Oh crap what will the ending be? I know it has to be something totally stupid but minimally credible at the same time as an apologize to all the nonsense ideas i had before!"And i've talked too much about this awful waste of time. Just don't watch this film, please...

"After a night of partying, college freshman Cassie (Melissa Sagemiller) and her friends are involved in a bloody car accident that turns into a horrifying tale of the supernatural. Overwhelmed by startling hallucinations, Cassie's grip on reality slips further as she begins a desperate race against time to learn who her real friends are, who wants her dead, and who will be the Soul Survivor," according to the DVD sleeve description. Subtitled "The Killer Cut", this R-rated release boasts, "More blood! More sex! More terror than the theatrical release!" If you're looking for the promised high level of Blood! Sex! and Terror! you may want to look elsewhere. However, writer/director Steve Carpenter (not the Deftones dude) and cinematographer Fred Murphy do combine for some outstanding visual elements throughout this unfortunately stupid otherworldly story. The camera focuses mainly on sexy Ms. Sagemiller, who will make your knees weak. Bisexual Eliza Dushku (as Annabel) is another fantasy figure. And, the male-minded should love Wes Bentley (as Matt) and Casey Affleck (as Sean).The music by Daniel Licht and song selections are very good - a stroke of The Turtles' "You Showed Me" plays during the paint scene.****** Soul Survivors (9/6/01) Steve Carpenter ~ Melissa Sagemiller, Wes Bentley, Casey Affleck, Eliza Dushku
