Well this is a weird little film. The acting is stilted throughout, the conversations sounding unusual and forced. The whole screenplay is broken into pieces, with little vignettes of moody landscapes, and a constant soundtrack of doomy noises. Whether all this is designed to be unsettling, I'm not sure, but the overall impact is that it's impossible to get any kind of emotional involvement with the main characters at all. And with the constant weird noises from the get-go, far from building tension, it just normalises it. On the whole, even though I watched the whole thing hoping it would all of a sudden make sense, I was left with the impression it wasn't a story worth telling.

Great Thriller!

Very enjoyable film. I happened to catch the trailer online and had a chance to watch it at one of their viewings. There is a much deeper backstory to the film with regards to over-development and small town values. Loved the ambient music choice which was certainly haunting in some of the scenes.
