The only reason I'm giving this three stars is because my husband, daughter and I watched it with only one pause to get cookies. We usually have shorter attention spans, so I give this credit for keeping us watching.Other than that...as soon as it finished we were all quiet and wondering "WTF" and my daughter said "I'll never get those minutes of my life back." This is the case of a film trying to be something it's not. The make-up/costume is reminiscent of an early 80s B-film and the low-budget quality of the actual film is hard to watch.Do I recommend it? Only if the alternative is cleaning a toilet.

It pains me a little to only give this movie four stars because the acting is brilliant and I found the story really intriguing. The problem, for me, was that the plot didn't exactly fill a 80+ minute movie, and there were long passages when nothing happened. Obviously, there was intention behind it: the audience acutely feels the protagonist's growing boredom and frustration while he's trapped in the house and nothing ever changes. But even though it's certainly effective, watching our despairing hero go through the same things again and again becomes mind-numbingly dull after a while. (And remember: unlike him, the audience can escape.)I feel like this would have worked a lot better as a short film, if some of A.J.'s struggles were implied rather than shown. Still, Joseph Morgan's superb acting and the punch-to-the-gut feeling the ending provides make it worth watching.

This will be short. I had a struggle to watch after the first 20 minutes, but I assumed it must get better because it couldn't get any worse. The costumes and makeup on the bad guys, which the credits title as "The Fallen", is childish and amateur at best. The story is dull and uninteresting. The ending becomes apparent after 30 minutes into the film. 90 minutes of my life I can never get back. Don't waste your time. The only appealing things are that there are only 3 actors in the entire film, the title is just one word so it doesn't waste too much ink and the movie does in fact eventually end. It may seem at times that you are stuck in an unending hell, just like the actors in the story, but when the movie ends you are reminded that your hell was only 90 minutes long.

For the film buffs out there this is going to be a great film. For the rest of us, it is just OK. Don't let the OK throw you off, I recommend you seeing it, but don't expect a high budget horror/thriller film. Since this is such a new film I won't include any spoilers or anything not shown through trailers. The movie basically has one character but the director does a good job keeping the film interesting. In a groundhog style story the character continuously wakes up in a unknown house, were he is confronted by sub- human creatures that are trying to kill him. It's worth seeing, but for me, it wouldn't make it into the home movie collection.
