My Wife and My Dead Wife

I liked this movie! I thought it was quite well written and well acted. The setting for the movie was awesome! The house was atmospheric and spooky. Costume design was great as was make-up and hairstyle. I have to admit I was hoping for something with a little more horror, but the suspense made up for that. AND, I absolutely loved the music! I thought the musical sounds throughout the movie were appropriate and added to the excitement of the story line. The music played during credits was also great and gave me shivers. I also liked the ending as it gave you something to talk about after the movie was over. I can only begin to imagine how much better the "second" movie will be - let's hope it is soon. This is a movie truly worth seeing!

I was at the premiere for this movie I found it very suspenseful!! It was a type of movie you have to watch till the end!!!! I would love to see a second movie made. I hope to see more movies written by this person. The movie was intense. I loved that it was filmed in our home town, and that the family was in it. I would love to be in a movie in our own home town. Many actors and actresses became big movie stars from buffalo. I hope the best for all of the actors and actresses in the near future. Looking forward to more of this type of film in the near future. I here there may be a new film in the making can't wait to see it. Good luck to all in.

What would you do if those aspects of your life that brought you comfort and solace suddenly seemed expendable? What would you do if a strange something proved more compelling? Would you leave behind everything you valued in pursuit of this extraordinary attraction, or would you convince yourself that you were chasing a chimera? These questions are central to "My Wife and My Dead Wife," a neatly crafted study of the sometimes indistinct line between the real and unreal. I was drawn into this delightful film thanks to Guy Balotine's rock-solid performance as a man who travels down a path that threatens to divorce him from his customary existence. Solid cinematography and direction make his harrowing journey all the more vivid, heightening suspense and inspiring sympathy for his plight. Be advised: this is no slasher film or monster movie; instead, it is a thinking-person's suspense film replete with subtle characterization, well-paced plotting, and a satisfying conclusion.

I recently rented this movie based on the recommendation of a friend. I was pleasantly surprised at how sharp and intense a movie this is. The movie starts with the main character, Graham and his wife Andrea, moving into an old house. After a bitter fight with his wife, Graham stumbles across a music box with some old pictures of a beautiful woman. He quickly becomes obsessed with her as his marriage and life fall apart around him. I think this movie sharply captures the miserable and desperate lives of so many people, and how ultimately we are all looking for that one thing which will make our lives meaningful. For Graham it is an escape from a reality that he finds profoundly numbing. This movie is subtle yet intense. It forces one to think and question where he/she is in their life. This movie is definitely for those among us who are willing to stop and examine our live instead of trampling through it.

It was refreshing to watch this film- a tense, griping tale of suspense told through the subtle, nuanced performances of a few fine actors. With all the overblown horror/suspense films leaning on the 'guts and torture' crutch nowadays I was intrigued by this film's delicate tale- almost a suspenseful stage play that was recorded on film (and quite well I might add). If you are interested in the new innovations in this genre instead of the trends and clichés, I recommend checking this one out. The performances from the leads (all unknowns to me when I watched the film)were superb- it reminded me how many good actors walk among us(lol) and the cinematography and direction were top notch. I also liked the boldness of the screenplay's choices to go places we might not expect. All in all well worth the price of admission.
