MoPoshy Absolutely brilliant

InformationRap 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.

Kaydan Christian A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Ginger Very good movie overall, highly recommended. Most of the negative reviews don't have any merit and are all pollitically based. Give this movie a chance at least, and it might give you a different perspective.

Claire Mojave As I'm writing this there are three other reviews posted all praising this as a low budget gem. I'm here to tell you either something is rotten somewhere or they didn't see the same film I saw.The plot was something about a vampire trapping five people in a maze and playing games with them, not a bad premise but not carried through very well. The films biggest problem was the quality of the acting -- I now know that I could act in a vampire movie, yes even I who can hardly act pleased believably when somebody gives me a chartreuse sweater for Christmas, who sweats blood at the very thought of public speaking. To get to the point (and don't whine at my ramblings, if you watched the movie you know how to waste time already and if you didn't I'm saving you from losing an important block of time better spent clipping your toenails) the acting was C- for a high school drama class. It was so awful I felt sorry for the actors. Really it ... well it stank, a lot.I gave it two stars instead of one because even with the horrible acting it had a bit of style. The bleak and moody atmosphere was pretty nice but couldn't make up for the lack of coherence in the story itself and nothing could make up for the ghastly acting.

Woodyanders Five folks are abducted by bitter misanthrope vampire Thelonius Von Rylos (a suave and commanding portrayal by Jean-Marc Fontaine) and placed in a deadly maze that they must get out of in a single evening's time. If anyone survives the ordeal, that person will win the vampire's fortune. If they lose, they become lunch for Rylos' bloodsucking slaves. Writer/director Marc Morgenstern wrings plenty of claustrophobic suspense from the gripping and ingenious story, does an equally sound job of ably creating and maintaining a tense, spooky, and mysterious atmosphere, and stages the vampire attack scenes with real aplomb. The tricky narrative never becomes predictable and keeps you guessing right up to the surprising conclusion (in fact, said narrative is quite reminiscent of "Cube" in so far that it keeps the viewers on their toes from start to finish and offers some dark insights into human nature amid all the absorbing dramatics). Better yet, the characters are drawn with admirable depth and substance and are interconnected to each other in complex and subtle ways. This film further benefits from sturdy acting by the capable cast: Sarah Boes as feisty cop Janet Montgomery, Adrian M. Pryce as tough criminal Sam "Shiv" MacKenzie, Ron Mazor as antagonistic jerk lawyer Mitchell Jobidan, Christiane Garcia as wise college professor Dr. Vera Nichols, Jaret Sacrey as the twitchy, sniveling Peter Church, and John Lopes as compassionate engineer Brian Samuels. Dana Alexander's stylish cinematography uses a muted grayish color scheme to enhance the overall gloomy mood. Joseph Martini's shivery score does the shuddery trick. A nifty and engrossing low-budget indie horror sleeper.

andrew1345 This movie is fantastic.Go beyond the obvious lack of budget and consider the fantastic storyline, the plot twists, the characterizations and the phenomenal concept.I enjoyed this movie immensely and would recommend it to anyone who loves the horror or B-movie genre (although, with a decent budget, this is way better than any B-movie) The intensity of the storyline keeps you watching and waiting for what might possibly come next, and usually guessing wrong.Thoroughly enjoyable.

flatline_HQ The concept for this film is awesome, and the plot was quite interesting to say the least. I was a little unsatisfied with the lack of visuals and poor fight sequences; I can understand they didn't have a lot to work with as far as the local goes being that it was all shot in studio but the fight sequences were too conservative and looked as though they belonged on stage and not on screen; I see less ghost-punches in wrestling.That all being said I think it is an incredibly fresh and new look for Vampire films and given a bigger budget and some good lookin' B-list actors this film could be incredible!
