Nat R This is a mood piece - mostly based around imagery. The main focus is on photographic visual impact so much that it's like watching a series of make-up or perfume commercials in rated-R versions, strung together to make an hour and half collage of these commercials. The goal is obviously intended to evoke two primary emotions; erotica and fear. And to this end it is very effective, but there is not much to it beyond that. It's similar to the concept of Eyes Wide Shut with the feel of The Cell. It seems like it's mostly just an excuse to see Tiptons boobs in a dreamy, surreal state with a bunch of naked or nearly naked girls in Mardi gras masks in mansions and castles (again like a make-up commercial). If you just want these kinds of visuals fine. But if you want an actual plot with characters, tension and delivery, etc, there's none of these things. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 05/07/19 Full Review Audience Member Love Tipton, but baseline for the story is confusing, and remains so at the end. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/22/23 Full Review Audience Member Weird, BORING and horrible! I would have enjoyed watching the dryer turning clothes to dry better than watching this poor excuse for a movie! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/12/23 Full Review Read all reviews
