    Strange...but good

    I watched this with a friend of mine who used to have some mental issues before he got on medicine, and he said this movie really hit home for him.

    This movie is very sad at times. You feel so bad for what the main character is going through. This is definitely more drama than horror....it has very very little horror IMO, but is well done and very well acted, especially by the main character.

    7/10 - Recommended if in the mood for something different.

    So much potential

    First of all the main character was annoying. And the movie also forces such a "woke" idea. This movie had so much potential to be good. I could've sat there and watched it instead of being on here while the rest of the movie is playing in the corner. It's cringy and insufferable but at least the plot was interesting.

    Crazy you say?

    No pun intended - the movie is quite out there. You really get into the mind of our main character. Of course his past does inform his present ... but what does that mean exactly? And how does he or has he coped with that? If he has at all of course .. you are able to sabotage yourself. Even if you don't mean to ... or is there something more, something quite sinister? Well you have to watch to find out.

    Of course this having a same sex love theme, may not be what you are looking for. And if you have issues with that, well that would mean you will be missing out on a more than decent movie. The ending is a bit weird ... but then again, the whole movie to say the least.

    a Great drama with horrific moments

    A very powerful movie about trauma and mental illness, with solid direction and cinematography, only held up by the editing which at times goes over the top and frantic for a bit too long in the attempts to convey the main character's psychosis and anxiety attacks.

    Zach Villa gives a Great main performance both in comedic and devastating moments, creating a wonderfully varied and whole portrait of a man haunted by his past and trying desperately to take control of his fragile mental state.

    Devon Graye does a wonderful job portraying the sad sometimes sisyphic acts of a loved one who wants only to know our protagonist for his real damaged self.

    A great watch for drama-horror lovers (and yes the main character is gay if that something you count as a downside, the internet was a mistake)

    Formula movie

    Predictable, boring and cliché ridden. Under developed characters with too many unanswered questions. Of course, Will's father is a negative figure and.
