The main women (Faith) in the movie has very little skill, this may work when she is in her leader roll as it's needed to be dramatic, but when she's speaking to other characters in the movie there's no need to have her be so dramatic. But the rest of the actors are pretty good. It's strange that Dave (the main character) would not question the Two headed dog he found buried in his old family farm house, still alive.
I wish we had more of a solid idea of how Dave got to this point in his life or what the church is doing, but the story line is fairly easy to follow even without backstory of Dave.
I knew this movie would be rather strange and artsy within the first few minutes, but I decided to give it a chance regardless because artsy doesn't always mean bad.
About half of the way through this movie it starts to get interesting. So at least it doesn't take long to get to the point.
The idea of this movie is unique and had much potential, however, it wasnt executed quite as well as I had hoped. That being said it's certainly not the worst movie I've seen.
Dave is certainly overly curious and Gareth is logically so, overly fearful of this pit.
We also have no explanation as to what the tapes Dave listens to are.
The whole time i remained rather confused as to the intentions of the "church." Are they good? Bad? Neither? What religion are they supposed to be? Are they their own religion? A weird mix of Christianity and something else?
A lot of the fear this movie is trying to create seems to come from the unknown. The unknown reason as to why this pit exists, or why it changes things. The unknown intentions of this "church." The unknown reason they seem to use this pit as a symbol.
We later find this pit is not bottomless really, Dave gets to the Bottom and meets this creature. He isn't fearful of her and I'm not sure why that is.
It turns out he should've been because she smashes his face in with a rock. He then ends up in this other world where he meets his dead wife. He falls asleep and ends up in this alter type area.
The screen fades to black and we open up on this stage of sorts where his wife is singing to him for some reason?
I likely missed much symbolism in this movie, but if I have to look that hard to understand your movie, you may want to reconsider a few things so the common audience can enjoy it. Now I felt I understood it up until the last roughly 30-20 minutes.
That's when things just got weird.
He's made to relive the events of the crash his wife dies in but in very odd ways each time. Then the man from the tapes reads to him the Bible and the crowd laughs. I guess the pit leads him to Hell or somthing that symbolizes mentally torturing Dave. Down to Dave trying to Kill himself, but since he's in his own version of hell he can't use that as a way to opt out.
When he seems to finally figure it out we cut to the weird cult "Church" doing heaven knows what and it ends.
If anyone knows exactly what happened I'd love to know because they lost me
As for the special effects of this movie, it's decent. Their are a fair share of corny looking things, but it's not so bad. Visually it wasn't unbearable.
