Truly Dreadful Film
... View MoreDon't listen to the Hype. It's awful
... View MoreAbsolutely the worst movie.
... View MoreIt's an amazing and heartbreaking story.
... View MoreNot as bad as some of these other reviewers say, I actually found it pretty entertaining. I nearly jumped out of my seat during more than a few parts of the film. I will admit, there are moments when the film is a little slow, but the performances were decent with a special nod to Jeremy Walker who played Marvin. Wow, I can't imagine it's easy to play a mentally challenged person and he did it quite convincingly. Jeremy's performance reminded me of when Leonardo DiCaprio played Arnie in Gilbert Grape. I suggest giving it a watch for sure, you won't be disappointed. I don't suggest watching it right before you go to bed!
... View MoreThis film was an experience none the less. It was truly great to see it take place in the Bay Area. The cinematography was a pleasant surprise. The locations were super interesting and it was great to see the bay area for what it is. Diverse and BEAUTIFUL. The shots of the Golden Gate Bridge were priceless. The creepy , spooky houses were really awesome as they gave validity to the plot that revolved around the inheritance of such a home. The acting was well done , and although the film slowed down at times the collaboration that brought this film together was a delight. Happy viewing and support the indie film !
... View MoreSpoiler alert....I am revealing some spefic details of the film.8I really enjoyed watching this film. As an low-budget Indie it is quite good, especially for the cinematography, which I thought was top notch. There is splendid use of shadow effects, wonderful angles and lighting. There was some decent acting throughout, and I particularly enjoyed the job Jeremy Walker did as a developmentally disabled young man, Marvin. I have worked with special needs students, and I felt that he did a good job portraying one. The kindness that was shown him by Danielle, the main character, was refreshing and helped to highlight her vulnerability. There were a number of scenes that made me jump, some that made me tense up, and some that left me guessing, especially as to who the "bad guy" was. What more can we ask for in a thriller? It would be interesting to see what Bidisha Chowdhury, the director, could do with a larger budget....
... View MoreTo compare this to TV Movies really insults TV Movies as some make the effort and produce something actually watchable on a similar budget.This film was terrible, 1 dimensional characters, poor writing and just a complete muddle, it wasn't clear what genre it was aiming for and managed to underwhelm in several.In essence a poorly acted lady inherits a house and starts to see dreams or visions of herself in a wig from another life. It really never pans out to mean anything and eventually turns out to be a film about abusive exs or something?Also there's a pretty offensive mentally handicapped dude for really no reason at all, unsure if its the writing or the acting but his handicap appears to be just dressing and talking funny, hes pretty much just a normal otherwise. Stick a dude in dungarees and glasses and suddenly hes mentally handicapped WTF???Poor effort all round people avoid like the plague.
