I got the very odd symbolism but then the movie just Ends.... so " what?! " is what you'll say. However it was interesting enough to keep me watching. So I can only thing the moral of this is.... don't throw-up in the sink.

REVIEW - THE CLEANSE Let's imagine that all the bad, the negative, the little monster we hide inside is actually real. So this monster lives inside us and is a part of us whether we like it or not and this monster basically makes us who we are and how we interact with people and deal with situations.What if you could literally take the monster away. Nice premise for the film but this does get lost in the journey, especially at the end which was disappointing because from the trailer I had great hopes for this silly, go nowhere story with no conclusion only confusion. Honestly if this is on TV this is your last resort, it's either this or........ And after sitting through this I'd rather be doing the or. One film I wish was better but it wasn't. 5 out of 10

When was the last time I saw Angelica Houston in a project?It's a lot better than what I was expecting. It's not the best movie but a very interesting one which seem to try hard to stretch a short story into a feature, but it did not have enough meat on it. When I read the synopsis about a group of people going to a retreat to do an experimental cleansing process which is "more than they realize" I was honestly expecting a horror film, but horror was not one of the genres listed and I thought that's either a mistake and if it's not, it can't be good outside of that genre. Not sure if I was wrong but, I'm defiantly not completely right. I did like that the visual effects seem to have been done on camera instead of CGI, which made the Sci-fi warmer and realistic. It was better than what I thought. I think it's biggest mishap was trying to be a feature when it was not.

Also: I'll show you mine, if you show me yours. A very weird movie, I knew nothing about when I saw it at a Festival. I went through a bunch of emotions during the screening. Happy, sad, afraid and so forth. The movie really puts you out there with the actors and you wonder where it's all going.It's really best if you don't read too much about it. The mystery that builds while watching it, is amazing. Also the make-up effects are nice if you like old school (not CGI). It really conveys a lot of emotions and it has a perfect ending too. A nice little gem, that not many will have the opportunity to watch.
