As bland as its title, "Something" is a horror film with few scares and a mystery without answers.

"Something" has a few observations to make about the perils of contemporary parenthood, but instead of whipping them into tension it douses them in catch-as-catch-can thriller vagueness.

3.0/4.0

A quality indie horror/mystery with a terrific cast and a familiar yet nicely constructed story.

2/5

Working with an obviously small budget, [Stephen Portland] succeeds in demonstrating that he has some skill. Just not enough to make many people want to sit through 86 minutes of a film that would have worked better as a short.

More a mood piece than a horror tale, "Something" is a low-budget movie that commands attention without the need for bells and whistles.

Only gave it a one at all for the most unintentionally hilarious script imaginable - the scene where the cops show up is damn near a Laurel & Hardy short. Holy Jeebus, this one's a stinker. Does have the occasional chuckle at all the wrong things though!

Low-budget B-movie, but suprisingly clever. I didn't figure it out before the reveal.

This movie was not what I was expecting, but actually more terrifying.
