Featured reviews
So first let me say that this movie is not as bad as some of the reviews I've read. It's not stellar by any means, but there are several comments on the acting. The acting is not at the professional level, but it's not what I'd consider bad. Nothing in the film looks 'cheap' to me either. It's well shot.
That being said, this one didn't score high marks with me on the story. I really liked the idea - they are going to play this game called Morbid which sounded like it might bring out monsters and demons and such, which of course it does, but what really got to me is that it then splits into 4 directions, one for each character. Again, that would be fine, but it still involved the same characters. So its sort of like the game sent in motion 4 alternate realities, so someone that's killed in one is still there in the others.

Ashlynn Cox is from my hometown but hmmm...Maybe hemorrhoid commercials. I should have given this a 1 star rating but, I watched it all the way to the end so I gave it a 2 star. The ladies are very. Easy on the. Eyes is the only plus.
Bad! Really bad! Cult classic bad!

While the idea of the movie was good, they did a terrible job doing it. Awful actors, no screaming what so ever, the effects were the worst and they did not even explain some stuff in the movie. They could have done a better job with the game idea.
The actresses where terrible, they did not even know how to scream properly or give the movie emotion. I hardly put "1" rate to a movie, but this one diserve it. The actress with the lantern was ridiculous because you could see everything perfectly.
To be a 70min movie it was very slow, it need it emotion and suspense and some of the things that happened did not even make any sense.

To get the blindingly obvious out of the way first: the acting is awful. It is so incredibly bad that I thought it was meant to be "tongue in cheek," but the longer the film wore on, the more it seemed that this wasn't the case. The "actors" all have the same bland, emotionless attitude, it is so bad I still can't entirely believe it wasn't intentional.
The bad effects, costume and props could be excused if this was either a parody film or a low budget horror where you can still tell an effort was made, but in this case the terrible acting and lazy ending just make the cheap props stand out even more - the whole thing seems careless and lacklustre.
The storyline itself is interesting, the overlapping experiences of the girls intertwining with one another is a nice concept that could have been explored further, but it's like the ending that should have tied it all together is just...absent. It just ends, leaving the whole thing as a poorly executed mess.
I stuck with it because I thought it must just be a really slow burn film with a payoff at the end, but no. Turns out it's just a waste of time. Do yourself a favour, watch something else. Time is irreplaceable, this film certainly is not.

I found this a fairly decent movie. Granted the actresses did lack some kind of emotion and feeling, but giving them the benefit of the doubt, I think they made the movie work with the overall feel of it, and all actors have to start somewhere right?
The concept of the game itself is a really clever and original idea. I think if they had just a slightly higher budget it could have been depicted in a more graphic matter, considering the context of the game itself.
Definitely something that can be re-made into something that could rival Ouija if the budget is high enough. Id love to see a remake with few known faces to see how much of a good film it could actually be.
