Audience Member Despite managing to create a fairly atmospheric mystery using only a couple of warm coloured gels for the lighting, this is a mess of a film with a storyline that only comes together in a fathomable sense at the very death and is nowhere near satisfying when it does. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member victorian style thriller, which was actually quite engaging, not quite sure what it was setting up but came good in the end with a bizarre ending that i didnt see coming Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars 02/04/23 Full Review Audience Member What a load of cobblers. In fact, shoes would have been more thrilling. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Audience Member Interesting and original lo-budget British sci-fi, thriller flick with strong noirish elements. I quite enjoyed this but the narrative does ask you to accept a lot without question and then tries to answer its own mysteries at the end only to realise that it's posed too many riddles for any one answer to satisfy. The lo-budget works to the flick's favour for the majority of the running time; the dark, low-lighting is effective and moody, the small cast is intimate, and the sparse effects are appreciated, with more importance being placed on mood and intrigue. Ultimately though, this film's ambition needs more 'weight' at it's punchline, as the climax did feel a bit stale and predictable after the opening enigma, and left me thinking "is that it?" Worth a gander though and an admirable indie effort. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 02/01/23 Full Review Audience Member Good flick...a little convoluted but a great film noir...fun weird and twisted. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/23/23 Full Review Audience Member Very clever film with good twists keeps you guessing right to the end of the movie and afterwards.Good english film!!!Worth watching!!!
