True to its essence, the characters remain on the same line and manage to entertain the viewer, each highlighting their own distinctive qualities or touches.

It isn't Sci-Fi at all. There's plenty of talk of aliens, and it has a fun creepy feel to it, but this film is about mental illness, delusion, and personal growth. By halfway through you should be seriously doubting whether the whole thing is her delusion, and by the end there should be little doubt in your mind that it is, even without the final scene where she decides to leave her delusion behind. There's definitely a low-budget feel to it, and the acting is hit-and-miss (i thought there were some nice moments), but overall this is a great film. Oh and it's worth mentioning that this is one of the few films available that not only has a female lead, but most of the supporting roles are female too - refreshing.

I watched this on Netflix because I thought it might be something to fall asleep to. Right away it grabbed me and kept me wanting more. If you like TV shows like Goosebumps and Twilight Zone then you might like this. It's a Sci-Fi low budget story. If you are looking for a blockbuster then this isn't for you. It's more ABC Family Channel or Nickelodeon. I would love to see a sequel but I doubt it would happen. I like how the characters were very low key. Keeping with the secret agent type story. Courtney Halverson does a great job. The only downside to this screenplay was the lack of background info on the mothers relationship with her. It looks as though John Ross reached his limit with this movie unfortunately.

I cannot agree with previous reviewers of this image. This is definitely not a brilliant movie, however it wasn't that bad. It's not also good enough to give it 8 stars (in my opinion only). Some people gave it only one star :/ I have no idea why... The screenplay had lot of possibilities some of them were wasted some were not. Main character was really nicely played. It wasn't an Oscar creation but still was quite good. The best thing was the mood of this movie, a little bit in Donnie Darko style. It was dark, static and strange (however i must say Donnie Darko was much better). Most important thing is that it's not a movie for everyone. I mean if you are a sf fan with desire to see spectacular CG effects you will be disappointed. There are no CG effects at all...well there are no special effects too (even standard camera tricks). The movie itself could be a little bit longer and maybe (just maybe) it could have a different ending. After last scene I got the feeling that CD1 ended an i'm waiting for CD2 to start :) Anyway the ending was supposed to tell us something (unfortunately i missed it). However I can understand the creators, after all the ending wasn't that senseless. This is a kind of budget movie so beware of huge Avatar like expectations. I recommend this movie to all fans of more independent type of pictures. I really enjoyed it. I'm also pretty sure that with more money (Hollywood amounts), little review of script (different ending and some more background plot lines) huge dose of hype (see Twilight Saga ;), better camera work (see Black Howk Down ;)and really famous director (doesn't matter which one) it would be a real blockbuster.

Not sure how this movie is at a 7.5/10 at the moment. My guess is all 11 voters have worked on the project.And the first person to comment on this movie is talking about a Horror movie. Well, there is nothing horror about it - besides the camera work and acting that is.It's basically a Thriller, with some small sci-fi elements (in the story, not special effects).The beginning is fine, and opens a lot of possibilities for a good movie, but it never gets better, only worse.Avoid this movie when you can.
