DipitySkillful an ambitious but ultimately ineffective debut endeavor.

Bessie Smyth Great story, amazing characters, superb action, enthralling cinematography. Yes, this is something I am glad I spent money on.

Portia Hilton Blistering performances.

Cody One of the best movies of the year! Incredible from the beginning to the end.

TMokko I am glad that I didn't pay to see this movie. This movie seems to be made by the bunch of film student straight out of school. Story is incoherent and totally meaningless. Actors are not beliavable and especially artist(Salvator Xuereb) is just delivering a stereotypical performance. Whole movie was basically just depiction of some painting, paranoia, partying and crying over a dead body. Music was totally of the mood. There was like action music on suspenseful moments. I was left with an impression that composer probably didn't see the movie when he was making music.Definitely the highlight of the movie was when charming young Allyssa(Nicole Rayburn) was posing naked - such beauty! And art works in the movie weren't that bad. This movie could serve well as a example how to not make a movie.

Lawrence Griffin Wow, this is probably the best horror movie I've seen in a long time. The director is apparently a newcomer, but it doesn't often show. This movie may be one of those low-budget type things, but it's honestly one of the coolest and most original films I've seen in ages. It may move a bit slow, but it's more of a 'comfortable' slow pace than a sluggish one. It's only about 90 minutes, but it takes it's time to let things happen and let the plot unfold.As for the plot, I wasn't originally impressed, since it did not seem that exciting from the tiny blurb I saw here. It starts off a bit slow, and you're not sure exactly how good it'll be. Moving at a rather deviously slow pace, you're kept in suspense until the ending just explodes on you, surprising you with a force that big-name movies rarely muster anymore. I'm wholly impressed by this. Nothing is done to excess, there are no plot holes, nothing. This is just the best low-budget horror movie of 2007, hands down, and it beats even most of the big-name blockbuster ones at their own game.Highly recommended. Plus, this is a movie about a masquerade. How classy can you get?

elmariachi33 Although I was sketchy while first recommended via NetFlix, I decided to check it out. Let me first say, I am a HUGE Nicole Rayburn fan, I think she is highly underrated and i will watch anything she is in. Yes, I've seen "Candy Stripers" and "Boo!" The film starts out with this great title sequence showing these great art pieces... with vivid vibrant colors. We then are taken into the art infused work of Adrian Jonas, who is painting one of his pieces in preparation for his big show in SoHo. The day takes a turn for the worst when Adrian has a vision that something bad is going to happen.The film is not what I expected, i seriously thought I was going to be watching a bad horror movie, with bad acting and bad dialog. I was pleasantly surprised when I was proved wrong.The film is both intelligent and intriguing. I was taken into this world of this artist who could possibly be on the verge of something extremely creative or extremely terrifying.It almost felt documentary-style. Almost like I was peaking into someone's private life, where I shouldn't be. Salvatore Xuereb was just astonishing, he really took the role to the next level and gave you such a great feeling. Wendy Carter was also great as the wife who may be in danger. Jana Kolesarova was a true gem and a surprise when she came onto screen. She really was the true standout for me personally. And of course, Nicole Rayburn was my personal favorite. I hope this girl does more, I really enjoy her.At the end of this film, I was in shock. I couldn't believe what I just saw and I was blown away. After second viewing, I pieced more information together and I was extremely excited and enthusiastic.I would recommend this film to everyone. This is a film that you want to talk about after you've seen it.

mcotoole If you are looking for a film with a lot of gore this isn't for you. I Wanted to see this since it was film not far from where I live. It was a total disappointment. The entire film is shot at the same farmhouse location. There were really only two shots: in the house and outside of the house. The actors motivation made no sense – the main guy is losing his mind during the first half of the film – he then turns into a mass murdered during the second half. The epilogue where the two women tries to explain what happened looks added on. This scene is too little too late. Really bad casting all the actors were not right for their parts. The script is all over the place, the party scene is too long and nothing really happens except girls kissing each other. The film drags on until the last ten minutes when it takes off in another direction. The script writers obviously don't know about three act structure. We have seen the man haunted by demons movie too many times. Very poor directing the actors just stand there and speak their lines, very poor framing of shots, no build up of dramatic tension. Avoid at all costs.
