bettyannewarren Very very dark - so be prepared for that. However it is original and stunning visually and the casting for the lead, well, she was perfect. The actress playing Evangeline looks like a normal girl, almost forgettable, but there is something more to her, a sad past that brings wisdom and yet youth that wants to let lose, fall in love, live life. She happens to have the worst night ever, first getting targeted by some bad fellow students and then by an even worse person, but supernatural things occur and some redemption albeit gory comes. I appreciate that there was a wonderful Japanese actress playing the good friend, thank you for not casting all white actors. And I love that this comes from a female horror director which there is hardly any of at all! If you liked this movie you would also like HoneyBee (also a female director) and It Follows and Jughead.

thatnolaguy How this movie got more than a single star is beyond me. The story line is weak, the villains are completely unbelievable, the Asian roommate story arc was put in there for no apparent reason, considering it went nowhere, and the movie flitted around like a fly with a broken wing with no lead ups to the flashes to her sitting in the chair. If one were to watch this through a "David Lynch a la Lost Highway" lens, one could suspend disbelief and see this movie for just a bunch of flashes of horrifying scenes of rape and gore.I saw a film project in college that went nowhere because the freshman producer got bored and wanted to get it off his plate quickly. I can't say this was much better.

aaltereego3325 I think maybe the people who put this thing together wanted to tell the story of a woman scorned. I'm guessing that there was some sort of proverb, or old wives tale, possibly from an Asian culture, that fed into this idea, as well. I'm also guessing that the writer and director wanted us as viewers to travel emotionally with Evangeline throughout this film.I say these things, because they never actually made themselves apparent. If you've seen "The Crow" or "Jennifer's Body," skip this one. At least then, you won't have to watch those in the future and be reminded of this.However, if you want to take notes on what to avoid when making a movie, please, indulge. You'll learn how to create a movie containing one dimensional characters, no back story, plot lines that come out of no-where and disappear mid stream, and a general feeling of "what the...?" when the credits start rolling.Tip of the hat. Good day.

hiyaboyos The premise is nothing really original. There have been many many other movies with certain and slight variations of this theme. Some that come to mind are "The Crow" and "Pumpkinhead" just to mane a few. I'm sure there are plenty of others.The acting was OK but nothing spectacular. No potential Oscar material here.The special effects again are just OK but no eye candy here. I always thought blood was opaque however in this movie it looks kind of like dark fruit punch.There are some serious plot holes throughout the movie. There is such a lack of character development that its amazing anyone watches the whole thing through. Where some very simple dialogue should be, there is none, just bizarre images. Images don't make up for plot explanation. I guess there is a certain amount of viewer imagination and or interpretation required here. I detest movies with plot holes and character under-development. Anyhow that about sums it up. Enjoy and use your imagination.
