Insanely creepy, playfully surreal art-house horror movie. It's a challenging, unique film but for anyone looking for a true vision of hell, this is pretty damn close. Not for the faint of heart.

This horror film for it's budget wasn't so bad,it manage to deliver few bloody scenes & creepy imagery that looks like a nightmare which helps to create a creepy atmosphere but the film tends to be slow in parts besides some odd moments at times. <a href="http://photobucket.com" target="_blank"><img src="http://i154.photobucket.com/albums/s245/T_trEnt/l_8128a4312ac794ae0c780352a34bfdf7.gif" border="0" alt="Photo Sharing and Video Hosting at Photobucket"></a>

A wildly ambitious first feature whose lush visuals belie the fact that it was shot on 16mm for a mere $150,000.

Tomaselli managed to direct one hell of an atmospheric movie on a low budget.
