Richard Propes TheIndependentCritic.com One has to give major kudos to Cole for figuring out exactly what he could get away with and committing himself. Rated: 3.5/4.0 Sep 2, 2020 Full Review Read all reviews

Audience Member It moved two slowly. The movie had potential and there were some good scary moments but loses momentum midway when the story should have building up. The actor and writer did the best he could. Very disappointing. Rated 2 out of 5 stars 02/21/23 Full Review Audience Member Not a great movie at all but once one realizes how little money was spent on this, it is possible to appreciate what can be done on a shoestring. It is a lot like an extended Twilight Zone episode. It does start slowly and I think badly. There is no attempt made to explain to the viewer what is going to happen. If you are familiar with the various paranormal 'reality' shows, you can read this. There is no blood and little real violence. So it gets an 'A' for effort and a gentleman's 'C'. Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/16/23 Full Review Audience Member aburridora, actuaciones flojas, la edición, todo. Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 01/31/23 Full Review Audience Member Completely unoriginal plot and terrible acting. I saw another review about typical ghost under a sheet style scary. Thought it was a metaphor for cheap scares but no. There is literally a ghost under a friggin sheet in this movie!! Rated 1 out of 5 stars 01/18/23 Full Review Audience Member There were plenty of jump scares in this film, however during the entire film I had a feeling of.. "he had it coming to him," but I won't add any spoilers. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/24/23 Full Review Audience Member Terrible acting, like porno movie tier acting. I kept expecting gay porn to start any moment. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/11/23 Full Review Read all reviews
