Brings to mind the old song "Torn Between Two Lovers." This movie is complex and confusing but still intriguing.

Rated: 4/10

This is Film

May not impress with its ambiguous nature but at least makes a mark as a project of experimental nature.

Philadelphia Gay News

The dialogue is largely risible, and the acting ranges from shrill (Fraiser) to stilted (Koorzen and Harwood). Like the stranger who is mostly trapped in the house, this excruciating film goes nowhere slowly.

The movie tells a touching LGBTQ love story thanks to its dream like look and emotive performances. The thriller aspects of the story are lacking, however.

Crooked Marquee

The nameless characters deliver sparse, cryptic dialogue that writer/director/star/editor/costume designer/production designer Drew Harwood clearly thinks is profound.

Rated: C-

For the viewer there may be more than one interpretation of The One You Feed....I watched it 2x and confirmed my own thoughts of the storyline and plot. The lack of dialogue adds to the mystique and allows for the viewer to create his own story in his or her mind. The soundtrack and the cinematography are very good and I did find some humor in some of the lines/scenes - whether intentional or not it was not out of context. The inter-relationships between man, woman and stranger I found interesting and ending dialogue between man and woman took me by surprise. For a lower-budget indie I think the cast/director/producers made an awesome film.

Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars

Had a "Misery" vibe in the beginning but didn't end up delivering.
