Wonderful character development!
Let's be realistic.
It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
View MoreThere is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
View MoreIf I could rate this movie negative I would. The plot was horrible, and filled with random dialog scenes referencing nothing to the theme of the movie. The acting was below mediocre... I've seen better acting in a kindergarten Christmas play. And the special effects? They were probably made on a calculator. Each scene featured a maximum of two angles, and the quality seemed like it was filmed on a camera phone. Overall, the movie was pointless. They were so cheap that they couldn't even afford a college ruled notebook. If this was filmed in Minnesota, I don't think I ever want to visit. Everything was repetitive and dumber than poop.
View MoreI enjoyed this movie cause not just was it original but the acting and writing was great. Without giving away the whole plot I would recommend this movie for anyone liking a good heist/horror/mystery movie.The writer had enough twists going to keep you guessing right up to the end. The writer/director Dave kaufman is someone to watch out for in the future. It is rear to see a movie that the characters are believable. Too many Hollywood movie are all about the formula and not the substance. This indie movie will surprise you. Hollywood has run out of ideas and the constant slew of remakes shows that. I will be waiting to see the next film from writer/director Dave kaufman.
View MoreI watched this film last night, and I was quite impressed. It encompassed everything I would hope from a low-budget independent film, but always find myself disappointed time and again. This film gallantly strayed from the usual excessive blood and guts and T & A that some filmmakers use to make up for a nothing story line, and I applaud director Dav Kaufman for having the guts to break free from the routine and tired formula and present something not only suspenseful, but fresh and entertaining as well especially on his debut film. That's a risk the majority of filmmakers are afraid to take, even seasoned ones, and it paid off rather well. I know from experience that this director has a career in front of him. The relationships between the thieves I found both intriguing and believable. I can't help but to wonder how things would have turned out for them if the ghosts didn't intervene. The acting talents of the cast (who I assume on a low-budget film such as this were paid nothing) while certainly not Oscar worthy, but served their characters well. What was obvious was that they understood their characters enough to make us believe their motivations, their struggles, and their internal conflicts, or lack thereof as is the case with the older brother. This film reminded me of the subtle Hitchcockian suspense films of the old days. It's not what you're shown that scares you, it's what you're led to believe might happen that does. But I also think that with today's more sophisticated and cynical audiences, this film may be placed in the "underappreciated" category.I see some others have inaccurately compared this movie to the likes of Reservoir Dogs. Comparing the two is like comparing a Mercedes to a School Bus because they both have four tires and a windshield. By that rationale, every zombie movie is a rip-off of every other zombie movie, every vampire film, every football or baseball film, and so on. If all you watch movies in this genre for is to be shocked by graphic and gory scenes which pose as a sacrifice for a good, solid story, and does nothing but insult your intelligence, then this is not the film for you. If you prefer a more sophisticated, keep-you-hooked suspense film with an intriguing story then I highly recommend this one! I look forward to more from this director.
View Morewell what can i say ? watched this last night, the external reviews made it sound really good!!!?? and thats where all the good stuff ends . the story was about the best thing and the idea was good, mostly let down by the acting or lack of , absolutely no budget at all . having said all that it was an Indy film and i don't like to rate them too low but if they had got rid of a couple of the "actors" and got some local acting school to lend them some people it may have bumped the rating up a bit ,the film tries very hard to entertain on the no budget it has clearly got, the makeup of the "spoiler" ghosts isn't all that bad a bit of a cheesy sfx on them though (budget again). so to summarise very low budget, bad acted,good idea and story spoilt! some cash and a remake would help
