I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

Entertaining from beginning to end, it maintains the spirit of the franchise while establishing it's own seal with a fun cast

Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?

Top seven things that are wrong with this movie:1.)I bought it at the Dollar Store.2.)The acting was atrocious. I think the worst scene was when she stabbed the turkey/chicken because she thought it was coming alive.3.)The sex scene was beyond terrible. It lasted around four seconds and there was no emotion involved. It looked like a bad high school play that no one bothered to memorize their lines to.4.)Oh, before I forget: the beginning of the movie where she births an alien from her vagina is just horrid.5.)The part where Jenny is trying to get away after stabbing Todd with a pencil, in the arm, might I add, and he begins limping away makes me want to throw my remote at the f***ing TV screen.6.)I wasted a dollar and eight cents on this movie. I could have thrown that dollar at a stripper on stage.7.)The time I wasted watching this movie, I could have gotten a college degree.I would not recommend anyone waste their time watching this movie. There are much better things to do.

Really a wonderful change from the usually hum drum plots. Moved along and delivered. The indie, low budget was obvious but did not detract. It was well worth the suspense invested and gave a good satisfaction ending. I would like to see more from these writers in the future..... with a bigger budget for improved production values. A fun, nail bitter; the viewer will appreciate. The score/sound was supportive but not intrusive. Overall, a good pick. My wife felt the same way as I did about this movie which certainly surprised me since she avoids terror, suspense and edge of your seat flicks. Would like to see it again to appreciate dialog more.

awesome unexpected ending, One of those stories that everybody can relate to in some way. where you have to do something and think about doing the unthinkable to get it done. what would you do if you know something that would destroy your best friends life if the wrong people knew about it. Would you stop him even if it meant it would destroy everything. How long can you stand to be so close to what you want before madness blows up. special effects were simple and effective leading lady was beautiful, David Carridine's daughter. great casting, everybody was believable. Alex Tuckman tells a great story. cant wait for his next project. looking forward to seeing it at the festivals

In a world where Hollywood special effects and pretentious "pretty" actors rule the screen with no content, finally a film is made with intelligence, substance and meaning. A picture that makes you reflect on the subject matter and really think weeks after you've seen it. Yes, this film had no budget. Yes, it's picture image is grainy. Yes, it wasn't shot on 35mm film. But boy did it blow me away! It starts off with characters that are real. A depressed guy about to marry a girl. He doesn't care about the wedding. The girl is so stressed out by the wedding she starts having nightmares. The guy (Todd) cares more about his wannabe writing career than his fiancée and, on a whim, he writes down her dreams, submits it to a friend who works at a Talent Agency and they next thing you know, he sees a window of opportunity to jump start his career. When Jenny starts taking medication to stop the nightmares, Todd gives her a placebo to keep that story material coming for his all American Novel. Arguably one of the coolest plots for a movie I've ever heard. Congrats to the filmmakers for their originality and vision. I admire their passion and creativity. Can't wait for the next one.
