Very disappointed :(

Funny, strange, confrontational and subversive, this is one of the most interesting experiences you'll have at the cinema this year.

Great example of an old-fashioned, pure-at-heart escapist event movie that doesn't pretend to be anything that it's not and has boat loads of fun being its own ludicrous self.

This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

This movie had the potential to be pretty darn good. The historical aspect involved made it even more interesting. The acting ranged from passable (the leading man, who comes across as not likable at all,) to strong (Skeritt.) The plot was fairly good, until just after the half-way point, but left some threads hanging that I kept expecting to be tied up, but they never were. The ending was nothing short of unfortunate. It was as if the writers couldn't come up with a good ending, and took the cheap route out. I can think of a couple of endings that would've earned this movie a solid 6 or 7 rating. Unfortunately, the writers couldn't, so they're stuck with a 4 - and I'm stuck with my disappointment.

I am giving this movie 5 stars because while it may have been confusing in parts I did enjoy the cinematography and the plot was interesting (when I thought there was one). The acting wasn't bad but it certainly could have been better. The movie kept my attention and I really thought this movie was going to have a great twist. There were many unanswered questions and I was hoping for great ending to bring it all together. Instead the movies it just ended and leaves feeling short changed. It as almost as if the director didn't know how to end the movie and decides to end the movie in a psychiatric ward as if none of it ever happened. Pretty poor ending for a movie with such promise.

I watched this movie because it looked interesting, or at least interesting enough for a guy who was bored on a Wednesday night. It was a decent movie until the end. I think the writers ran out of weed and decided to end the movie; however, they forgot what they were writing about in the first place.The acting was good, the atmosphere was good, the plot was decent. Stop reading here if you don't like spoilers. Basically, the movie ends with the main character waking up from a daydream. Someone should tell the writers that this is the cheapest way to end a movie.Don't watch this movie, don't rent it, don't download it, don't play it as background ambiance while playing WoW, or even as background to a bad poker party. I have never given a 1-star rating here on IMDb, until now.

Confused and confusing horror tale about a restoration architect who goes to restore and old home in Virginia and runs across evidence of the Lost Colony of Roanoke. Strange things happen and people die…maybe. I'm sure this makes sense in someone's mind but to be perfectly honest I doubt anyone outside of the filmmakers will have any idea what's going on. At the start the film creates a great sense of place and it begins to build some tension and then you begin to wait for something to happen. Actually you begin to wonder "did I just miss something". There is a point relatively early on when the film begins to feel like you've missed a reel and the whys and the hows have been taken away. Why is the house locked? Why are these characters doing anything? It makes no sense. And then the denouncement at the end comes and its like WTF? It's a HUGE "WTF?". I was left shaking my head. What is this film? Well it's a mess, but beyond that, I have no idea. I'm going to guess that the actors were given a good script and they filmed it, and then someone came in and re-shot stuff and re-cut it and turned a well acted, good looking film into a complete mess. I mean this had to work at some point because the performances and the other aspects of the film do not seem to have been a paycheck job. Rather they seem like this was a film that everyone cared about. I can't believe the film as it's on the screen now is any sort of film that anyone would care about on any level. 3 out of 10 because the script is such a mess it pulls everything down
