This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

There is definitely an excellent idea hidden in the background of the film. Unfortunately, it's difficult to find it.

.Like the great film, it's made with a great deal of visible affection both in front of and behind the camera.

Actually if anything my soul is more alive and appreciates the small things in life and what little time we have. We should not be wasting it on horrible movies like this. And now spoiler alert. First of all to the protagonist who claims she knows who killed her. No you don't know who killed you or the movie would have gone like this:I know who killed me - Him
Ok lock him up boysThe end. Second of all you are not dead so explain to me exactly how you were killed yet you are still alive.I will give one thing to you though Miss Lohan, you are good on the pole. Actually your acting in this film isn't bad either. Maybe the other actors acting is a little stiff but not yours.The worst thing about this movie:Is the plot when there is one. The rest of the time Miss Lohan is stripping, or having an awkward sex scene which if it is supposed to be a gory torture porn film then its okay. The director is obsessed with the color blue. This is not Three Colors: Blue man. The 'killer' is maybe from the Blue Man group. There are some red herrings or rather blue herrings. The prosthetics tech guy was a little suspicious. He happens to be Darneo from my name is Earl great show by the way. In the end it happens to be this random guy who frequently appears on the screen that you would think is obviously a red herring but it is him all along. The owl keeps helping our character find the crime scene. That is obviously Twin Peaks. The plot:So basically we have twins separated at birth by Damien Dark from Arrow and one gets abducted by a psycho and he amputates one of the twins. Through the supernatural phenomenon of 'Stigmata Twins' where if one twin gets injured in a particular part of her body, the other twin also gets injured in the same part of the body. 'Twin Dragons' by Jackie Chan comes to mind. Which begs the question how could you conclude that your twin sister is dead because her dying would lead to your death too? Finally the movie should be called 'I Don't Know Who Abducted and Amputated but Didn't Kill My Twin Sister'.

I am not even looking at any of the reviews on this site - yet. First I will write mine...
I can see this movie seems to have received a terrible overall score on this site, and a brief look at Wikipedia tells me it had a derisive response. Well, all this is undeserved.I saw this film on TV late at night in Australia, it was labeled here as "horror": perhaps so, dunno: it wasn't scary, this movie seems to transcend genre. I won't delve into the plot - others have done this for me. As for genre - this movie seems to move between psychedelic and some implicit sci-fi. The blue roses that crop up in the story: they don't exist in nature, and if they can be bred - probably are not cheap. The dual Fleming/Moss character is badly mutilated pretty much at the onset, and receives bionic prosthetics that seem to be gleefully taken for granted in the film - but do not exist in reality. And this entire plot is entirely set in our reality, not in some alternate sci-fi world.I loved Lindsay Lohan's and Julia Ormond's performances. Ormond's beauty was very much tempered down for this movie.I will see this again if I have a chance.

I watched this movie about 7 years ago, and tried to re-watch it tonight, give it a second shot. MY first issue with this movie is how Lindsay portrays Audrey, the main character. She is supposed to be an honor roll, piano playing, creative writing, jock dating girl. It is just not believable. Lindsay did so amazing in Mean Girls, so I know show can play a non-trashy role. However, she was much more believable as straight out the slums stripper, Dakota. In the scenes following the finding of Audrey, NONE of the character's actions were believable. Not Audrey's, her "parents", the police, her boyfriend. Okay seriously, you just got home from the hospital with two amputated limbs, and the first thing you do is bang your boyfriend. And he wanted to? I know the guy wanted to get some, but no woman is going to get on top of you and start screwing your brains out like it's the end of the world, when you just lost two limbs, and have no idea who you are. Dakota was a total bitch to Audrey's parents. It was just a mess. The whole twist of the movie is a cool concept, but was played out just plain horrible. The gore scenes are pretty sickening. I definitely turned away at times. The whole blue thing going on throughout the movie was distracting. I am guessing the red and blue is refercing towards the whole twin thing. This movie should have had many things taken out, and many explanations added. Definitely needs better writing, directing, acting, just basically better everything.

Pity the poor film school graduated writer, director or producer who really liked watching those surrealistic foreign films but just has to make it in the Hollywood movie world.They believe that there just must be a way to make a done-by-committee Hollywood film that encompasses all the great bizarreness of a Fellini or Almodovar film and still be understood by the legion of common folks going to movies and also be commercial success.Well here's another example that this cannot be done or, if done, will be a failure.This terrible endeavor got it's well-deserved razzie, worst film of the year.
