Ketrivie It isn't all that great, actually. Really cheesy and very predicable of how certain scenes are gonna turn play out. However, I guess that's the charm of it all, because I would consider this one of my guilty pleasures.
Dirtylogy It's funny, it's tense, it features two great performances from two actors and the director expertly creates a web of odd tension where you actually don't know what is happening for the majority of the run time.
Catangro After playing with our expectations, this turns out to be a very different sort of film.
Scotty Burke It is interesting even when nothing much happens, which is for most of its 3-hour running time. Read full review
