Absolutely love the execution of this premise. While it could be written off as another horror movies, the subversion of expectation is nice

Great premise and amazing lead. The movie is somewhat let down by a weak finale. Why was Nathan Baesel not launched to stardom after this?

This is such a great and original idea for a horror movie! One of the best written indie films I’ve seen in a long time.
