    Not too bad, but not especially great either. Acting is decent, scares are okay, plot is nothing particularly special - just fodder for the supernatural genre. Fine if you've got time to waste, but nothing to go out of your way for.

    One of the first movies I worked on, therefore my rating is obviously biased. This was shot 'low budget' in Hamilton, ONT. in 15 days and was in post production for another few weeks. I would only recommend this to family members, just to see my name in the tail credit crawl.

    Didn't make ANY sense!

    Couldn't be drawn out any longer, not much explanation in the beginning of the movie, so you really don't understand what is going on until you read the plot on flixster.

    This was an insomniac movie on one of the movie channels. Bit predictable, but wasn't too bad. They tried to make some twists and surprises and they did get a couple in but overall a little dull. It was nice to see Haas again at least.

    Found this to be a long bore.....I kept waiting for something to happen to turn the movie around but never really did......they tried though, the movie had a good concept just don't think it was executed well.
