brilliant actors, brilliant editing

A brilliant film that helped define a genre

A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

CALEB'S DOOR is an indie mystery/thriller with horror elements. The story follows the protagonist, a low key David Boreanaz lookalike, as he visits a small town that he left years before. He chats to pretty much all of the townsfolk and tries to solve various mysteries that have been plaguing him over the years. The pace is so slow that it feels like this film goes on forever, and that's not a good thing.

The only reason I watched this "presentation", to the end, was to see if there was any redeeming value at all. There wasn't!Unfortunately, I didn't read any reviews before wasting time on an amateurish effort by everyone involved with Calebs Door. Acting, direction, scenery, props--all score zero on a scale of one to ten. Hopefully, these comments will save other viewers from a mind-numbing journey through insipidity.If you decide to ignore this warning, be prepared for a soap opera treatment of a disjointed, lame storyline that beats you over the head with blatant morality. Both the writer/director and producer seem to take some special glee in insulting the intelligence of the viewer.

Caleb's Door is an adventurous first film that explores ways to record inner sensibility on film. Its likable and well played main character, Caleb, who strives to be a writer, is plagued by problems that will strike a chord with anyone familiar with today's news. Writer-Director Arthur Vincie doesn't go for the familiar happy ending, but instead paints a real (if imaginative) picture of a soul in distress, a soul that refuses to surrender to despair, regardless of the burden of his suffering. Vincie probes the roles of family and religion, as well as the effects of social climate on the sensitive person. He asks some probing questions about the power of love to heal as well as to hurt. Well worth a look. We'll hear from Vincie again.

For starters, this was NOT worth the 20$ i payed for this movie. Come to think of it, I looked forward to seeing this because the review on it was OK, and I thought the plot sounded interesting. This movie I'll vote grade C, but only just. It is by far one of the worst movie I've ever seen. Bad acting and a plot that doesn't live up to it's potential; at all. Throughout the movie it also is way to little scenery and it gets more and more boring as it goes on. It actually reminds me of Polish movies from the 70's... Say no more!I seriously considered stop watching about half through the movie. I just can't believe I ruined my evening by sitting through the whole thing...Stay as far away from this one! I beg you all not to waste your time!
