The film feels like a rough draft of a rough draft, and frankly looks like one, too.

Film Threat

While the seams may show at times, this micro-budget sci-fi sickie impresses repeatedly. It is a good indication as to how rich with talent the underground scene is becoming.

Rated: 8.5/10

Crooked Marquee

The special effects can't always match the movie's ambitions, but there's enough cleverness to make up for the limited resources.

Rated: B

What everybody on this lean little picture was going for was a slasher version of Safety Not Guaranteed, gory goof on the Spanish thriller Time Crimes or a no-budget, jokey Prime... It doesnt come off, but the idea has merit.

Rated: 1.5/4

I'm so glad I rented this movie! I saw it mentioned in the ny times. It's so much fun and has a bit of dark humor that I love. Great little indie film!

Pathetically cheapo flick about creating a time machine but mistakenly programmed to go on a loop, silly.

I love 80s movies and while this isn't set in the 80s, it's very obvious they were going for the 80s era esthetic! The score kicks ass! My only complaint, is that the ending is a little hard to follow, but I think I get it. Really enjoyed seeing Tom Smykowski (Office Space) and the dude that plays Owen was great!

I REALLY enjoyed this film! Is it low budget, sure, but obviously the filmmaker knew how to make it work for the story. I love that you think time travel works a certain way throughout the film, but by the end you realize it's not that at all. I love a twist that makes you rethink sci-fi tropes!

MOVIE REVIEW Madelines 5 out of 5 stars Genre: Comedy, Horror, Sci-Fi Year Released: 2022 Runtime: 1h 20m Director: Jason R. Miller Writer(s): Brea Grant, Jason R. Miller Cast: Brea Grant, Parry Shen, Richard Riehle Where To Watch: In select theaters and ON DEMAND starting 4/1 Wow! I wasn't even remotely prepared for this, which made it that much better! This was an absolute joyride from the first scene to the last, and a lot of that is thanks to Brea Grant (Madeline), who stars in the film and was a co-writer. Without giving too much away, she manages to play a whole cast of characters and, in doing so, makes the film a fun thrill ride of twists and turns. That's not to take away from the rest of the cast, including Parry Shen (Owen), who plays opposite Grant and acts as a foil to her character in some ways. Richard Riehle (Rory), who, if you love OFFICE SPACE (and many other films), will be familiar to you, instantly plays a minor role but has some critical moments that move the film's story along. While I'm not familiar with any of the director Jason R. Miller's other films, he offered a unique and exciting feel throughout the film. It was a very personal film considering only three actors in the main cast. However, he was able to bring a larger-than-life feeling to a lot of the scenes. It's moments like this where I wish I were able to offer up some spoilers to help explain. I feel it's still more important to go into a film blind than giveaway any essential story elements. As a whole, this is just a fun film, a lot of movies strive for that balance, and I think they miss out on what makes a film enjoyable. The horror/comedy genre is tough to stick to, but we get a perfect balance here, neither of which is the primary genre, and the creative team behind the film very much knew what they were creating. The script, the acting, the score, the look, everything just melded together to create what I think was a delightful experience. It's a movie that you can sit down and just enjoy! Sometimes simplicity is the key to a story; while there is a lot to take in, the important story here is straightforward and makes this horror/comedy that much more fun. The film could have easily gotten weighed down with a lot of "science," but instead, the film was in some ways an homage to the 80s with an unbelievable score and a few shots that are a wink and a nod to WEIRD SCIENCE. Reference's to BACK TO THE FUTURE just make this film that much more of a love story to the genre that it is now and forever a part of. A very big thank you to dominion3 Public Relations and Gravitas Ventures for allowing me to screen what is easily my favorite film of the year so far!
