Any review over 5 has to be highly dubious.
It seems that the most basic of film skills has been totally abandoned- such as lighting, and creating an atmosphere to evoke emotion. In fact, most of the lighting seems to have been reproduced for each scene, often totally contrary to the apparent lighting in the frame!!
Then there is the acting. Oh my goodness! It's not as though there is a lack of talent and experience in some of the roles (and in others there is zero ), even so, the on screen performance seems to have been left to reading some lines of the script and repeating them as the scene is shot. Zero direction for the rare talented individuals at all.
The few shots meant to be horrific were just shot as is with zero effort made in post to make them anywhere near scary at all!
The story isn't any better. It is fragmented and bland with no thought being given to engaging the audience.
Just don't waste your time - and certainly not your cash - on seeing this. It really isn't worth it.
