Highly Overrated But Still Good

This is one of the few movies I've ever seen where the whole audience broke into spontaneous, loud applause a third of the way in.

All of these films share one commonality, that being a kind of emotional center that humanizes a cast of monsters.

Part 1 of my review is spoiler free, then part 2 have spoilers and i warn you when they start, so if you want spoiler free just read the first part.I always loved Taylor Cole, ever since i saw her for the first time as a teen in that show call Summerland. I dunno, i had a major crush on her at the time and since she has not done that much over the years, especially in the type of movies or TV shows i like...well when i stumble across a movie where she is present a lot (unlike The Green Hornet where i didn't even knew she was in until i read her name) i have to watch it.Thats why i watched that cheap slasher flick called April's Fool Day which was pretty bad and today this one. Oh what can i say about this movie? Well its about some kind of experiment that supposed to be link to paranormal, and then some ghost elements are thrown into the mix. Sadly the movie fail on every level. The plot is incoherent and boring, the movie is not even scary what so ever. The set and cinematography is so low budget it can't come close to scare anybody, either with atmosphere or jump scares. The music is also pretty bad for the few there is...It consist mainly of the cast sniffing coke during the entire movie, to a point where even Tony Montana would had been impressed. After a start with some potential there is a sexy scene where the girls danced in there underwear and start making out that literally change the whole thing for the worst, believe it or not. Now i don't want to look ungrateful, Taylor and Rummer in there underwear for the majority of he movie sound pretty good at first, but thats like the only redeeming factor of the movie. Don't expect nudity tough, there is nothing visible.Spoiler ahead. Spoiler ahead !!!! The rest have Spoilers !!Oh well i wanted to write this review spoiler free, but never mind i will just click the box and say it. When the sexy scene happen, the movie become just a continuity of Rummer walking naked in the house, Taylor receiving oral sex and an incoherent mess of a story trying to cram itself into it. It try to somehow be clever, as in does Taylor's character is the one killing them, is this in her head, does they die of overdose, does there really the ghost of her long lost forgotten murdered sister, well we don't know. We got a scene at the end with Dominic Purcell making a cameo that pretty much explain they either died of asphyxia or the drugs. Even tough we see Taylor's character stab one of the dude, his body is not bloody or anything when the cops discover it. So as the audience we tend to go with the police reasoning, but then the "ghost" of the sister still voice over to the end credit... it kinda try to make us doubt. The problem is the way its presented. The movie barely kept me in with the sexy parts, and i think most of the budget got to the girls paycheck. The rest is uninteresting.I think it sum everything up. I am not asking to watch a masterpiece of a movie when i watch something for Taylor. I would be satisfied with a college humour flick or something like that. But this movie barely escape the "ridiculously bad low budget" on the sole reason the blood parts are almost non existent except a couple rare scenes. Still does not save it from a mess of a story and cheap sets.

I felt the story idea had potential, but wasn't well-executed. A group of psychology students meet in an abandoned house to see if telepathy is possible under specific conditions. Lucky (Rumer Willis) brings a bag of cocaine, which some of the students start snorting right away, without considering how it would affect their psychological study results. When they do actually start with the study, the paranormal stuff starts happening with barely any buildup, making it unscary and boring. It freaks them out, so they decide to drink, smoke weed, snort cocaine and make out to ease the tension. After that, they experience creepy visions. A Gothic ghost girl tells the main girl Becket (Taylor Cole) to avenge her (they are apparently sisters), and Becket stabs the ghost girl's real killer to death. The cops arrive after a while, and discover everyone dead, except for Becket. They also finally discover the murder weapon the ghost girl was murdered with, and I suppose that means the ghost accomplished what she came for.The ghost revenge plot wasn't exciting, but it could have been. Wouldn't it be cool if we were never quite sure if there is a ghost, or they are all just suffering from group delusion caused by drugs, sleep deprivation and expectations created by their experiment? At least to me, people killing each other from paranoia/OD'ing would be more disturbing than a ghost plot. And adding uncertainty only makes it more thrilling. However, what the movie lacked in story, it compensated for by sexy scenes between Rumer Willis and Taylor Cole (and sometimes Ryan Donowho). At least they did that right.

I didn't go into this film expecting it to be an amazing film, but I didn't expect it to be as bad as it was. For starters, the picture on the case (a big building that looks like an asylum of some sort) and the synopsis on the back of the case, did not match the setting or the events of the film. Secondly, the film had a very tenuous link to the Ganzfeld experiments, certainly not one big enough to justify having the film supposedly revolve around them. Another thing is the plot was very empty, to the point that 20 minutes of two teenage girls (who have an inexplicably large amount of cocaine) having sex-but-not-quite was needed to try and keep the audience at all interested, when really it served no purpose and added nothing to the film. There are no twists in the film, no surprises and no interesting new ideas. There was a gratuitous amount of plot holes and very forced, unnatural situations, even for a world where the 'paranormal' is real. If you don't take my word for how bad this film is, be sure to watch it anyway, that way you'll find out first hand just how abysmal it really is.

A team of psychology students go to a deserted house to run an experiment. They where teamed up by their professor and they don't seem to like each other much. But they have to work together even if their feelings for each other start getting in the way.Their experiment has to do with sleep deprivation. During their experiments they loose the touch between past, present and future. They don't know what is real and what is not. Why the past is haunting them and how it affects the future.The movie is not bad. It has some interesting ideas and some small twists. But in overall it is not good either. Also… Beware of the past it always comes back to haunt you!
