I'll start by admitting that I watched this because I saw Alex Lifeson in the cast and did a double-take. Unfortunately his scenes seemed to be shot from his own webcam in his studio with his amplifiers in the background lol. But hey, he got me to watch it!
The movie is a sci-fi/horror mystery that doesn't really explain anything and ends up being more confusing than interesting. Even though you can predict where things are going, you have no idea why. The story felt largely inspired by "From Beyond", but this movie fell short in every way. The overall production was about on the level of a moderately budgeted SyFy original movie from 2005. None of the actors stood out as being particularly effective in their roles. I saw that Slash did the music and was listed as an executive producer, and then there was a scene at the end with "Are You Afraid of the Dark?" style music that made me laugh out loud.
The biggest positives I can give are to the editing, some of the prop design, and there was some effective cinematography. And even though I wasn't enjoying the movie, the director knew how to keep me engaged and the movie was decently paced.
4/10 - I'd recommend this to someone who has fun watching bad movies, it's not painful to get through.
