Okay, I'm 10 minutes in and I have issues. This movie is very short, and part of that time is a long opening credits without storyline.
The movie starts with a girl finding out her roommate is dead and has been for "a day or two" - most people may not realize this and I'm sorry to ruin it for you, but trust me, as soon as a body dies, it begins to decay and soon after it starts to SMELL. After "at least a day" unless the room had zero air flow into the apartment she would have noticed. There might even already be flies. Add the annoying sounds of car horns outside during the otherwise soft spoken short police interview and JT appears the windows are open, which means the AC is NOT running (at least it's not heat on?) but I just wish if you're going to do a B- Horror movie which typically appeals to a certain crowd, do some minimal research please.
Also, once the roommate says "I don't know, I didn't know her that well" they ask an even more personal question. That's just lazy writing.
The acting is flat. Everyone is deadpan in an emotional situation. One scene with some hysterical hyperventilation is it. I was annoyed long before the by the expressway that must run in front of this apartment based on the horns that go all night long.
Sadly, it had potential. It's why I gave it two stars. The actual plot of the movie which ends in the middle with its mediocre twist (which to not spoil it, I'll just say, maybe it will give her more personality?) and unfinished cliffhanger are just not worth the 73 minutes of flatline phone conversations and horns honking. I'm fine with minimalism when done well... This was just DOA.
