If I were going to put a number on it, I'd give it a point or two lower rating than High Tension, Frontier(s), Inside, and all those other movies people tend to lump together. The overall tone and quality of film-making is similar to the above titles, but it doesn't have the gore or the body count. There's just one character whose bad luck has to keep us entertained for the whole running time, and prior to the climax, there just isn't much going on. Like those films, there's also a paper- thin hint of artistic insight, but it's nothing brilliant and isn't enough to justify watching the film.
That said, there's three or four scenes that are completely off the wall and that make the film worth watching. I won't spoil them, because much of the thrill that this movie offered for me was in the sincere "lol wut" it pulled out of me at several points, and if you're going to enjoy the film, you're going to enjoy it for the shocking absurdity of these precious few scenes. These scenes are shocking in the way a David Lynch movie is shocking to someone who's never seen a David Lynch movie. They're just so bizarre.
On the whole, it's not great, but if you're reading this review, you've probably already watched all the great horror films. So, give it a shot, and you probably won't be disappointed.
