I thought the premise of the movie sounded boring and unimaginative so I avoided seeing this until a stumbled across an old article on Bloody Disgusting raving about this film. I figured if a "reputable and unbiased" site like Bloody Disgusting gave it a glowing review then I'd give it a go. Oh how I was wrong to trust their judgment!
I could go into why this is such an atrocity of a film but plenty of other users have adequately done so. What I will tell you is that anyone who is raving about this film is either 1. a person with a vested interest in the film or 2. a conformist who's too afraid to be a contrarian in the face of seemingly credible endorsement.
When I saw that Brad Miska was credited as a producer, it suddenly all made sense; Brad Miska is one of the founders of the horror website Bloody Disgusting. So obviously the website is not going to be impartial when reviewing a film one of its founders stands to profit from.
As for other positive reviews; I can only assume that these reviewers have been hoodwinked into believing (against their better judgment) that this film has artistic merit and/or is inspired. With so many indie filmmakers contributing to this film plus the fact that horror aficionado's (like Bloody Disgusting) hail this as "groundbreaking", I have to conclude that these users unwittingly believe they've watched an arthouse masterpiece rather than a collection of cheap, lazy student films complied into a nearly 2 hour long crap.
