What an awful movie!! I could barely manage to watch it for the hour it lasted — any longer and it would've been off.
Low-budget I can handle. Weak supporting performances, poor special effects, bad editing
OK, fine. But there is no way to get past a film that is painstakingly slow, boring, and completely lacking a plot (or even an explanation)! Nothing happened! I watched the whole thing and still couldn't really say what it was about. Basically it's a guy who's scared of the shadows. Is he crazy? Why is he in a mental hospital? Is he imagining the spiders and the moving shadows? Who knows — or, more importantly, who cares? Sorry, but a slightly moving shadow on the floor in the middle of the night means nothing, especially when the curtains are open; it's probably just a branch moving outside the window.
Robert Pattinson is attractive as ever and turns in a pretty good performance, but there was no way he could salvage this piece of crap.
My response in a nutshell: yeah, it was only an hour lost
but I can think of so many better and more interesting things I could have done in that hour. Like, the dishes.
