Astonishingly dull and pervasively unwatchable...

Rated: 0/4

Combustible Celluloid

It throws in nightmares, hallucinations, red herrings and other sinister developments that seem to leapfrog one another more than they actually add up to something.

Mischa Barton plays a demolition engineer sent to a building designed by a famous architect to inspect it for impending demolition and has strange interactions with the remaining tenants and caretaker of the building along with her odd son. This isn't too bad, the story is fairly engaging at least until the final act where it kind of devolves into a different direction. Not a bad watch.

The sequence of the movie felt a little all over the place. The actors sound like they're reading off of the script (except for the lovely Deborah Unger). There's an awkward sexual tension between the main character who is 25 and the young boy who looks like he is in high school. A lot of predictable and unnecessary jump scares. ALSO the chant/song in the movie sounds pretty similar to Freddy Krueger's song, tsk tsk. Near the middle, towards the end it turns into a perverted scheme. I got very bored which is a rarity because I give every movie the benefit of the doubt.
