In truth, there is barely enough story here to make a film.
View MoreA story that's too fascinating to pass by...
It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
View MoreThere's no way I can possibly love it entirely but I just think its ridiculously bad, but enjoyable at the same time.
View MoreRemarkably well done and ambitious on such a low budget. The film has heart, rare in this genre of horror film.It doesn't let go till the very end.
View MoreBlake Blackmon (Steve Daron) who writes horror books goes off to a cabin in Castlerock...no bars, no cable, one radio station...welcome to rural West Virginia. He takes along with him his illustrator and mistress (Guisela Moro- director, writer) for a distraction. In the first 10 minutes we have a ghost, wolf howling, and whispers in the night. But don't pay any attention to this as Guisela Moro never bothered to develop it effectively into the script...oh wait, the baseball came down the steps. Children have gone missing in Castlerock and we are cheerily informed that if an abducted child isn't found in the first three hours, there is a 75% chance the kid is dead. Anyway, not to spoil too much but Angela, our mistress goes missing (we actually know where she is and the entire mystery is revealed) and Blake is a prime suspect because he is from NY and this is by God West Virginia.I felt I was watching a made for TV production. The budget was low and the sound track was mostly lame piano and generic. The characters were not exciting. The Burt Reynolds cameo was terrible. They should have cut it out. Perhaps the biggest surprise was that Eric Robert didn't play that part. I thought this was going to be a ghost story after about 10 minutes, but it wasn't. I am not sure why she tried to confuse the abduction genre with a weak ghost tale. It didn't work.No swearing or nudity. Near sex scene.
View MoreMovie was very suspenseful. The story line was very intriguing. The fast pace from directing, editing and plot was like a real "page turner". There was never a dull moment.I loved the main characters. The acting was good and believable. Steve Daron was so so handsome making me wish we could see him in more movies. Most of the men in Hollywood are not very attractive making me think there is something wrong in the gene pool. My only criticism is that the crazy characters overacted. Perhaps reasons people did not like the film were because there were no grisly murders, no major explosions and no sex. Sadly these are the typical ingredients used to determine a successful film. I found the movie exciting and highly recommend it.
View MoreEnjoyed the film. Story line had the right supernatural touch and moved along well. Kept my interest and had a satisfying conclusion. Loved seeing my home state used in the film also! Thought the actors did very well, and felt the scenes with Burt Reynolds added solidity. I applaud the director/writer and await her next effort.
