    Probably the worst movie ever created.

    Let me first start out by saying 1 out of 10 is too good for this movie. It's unfortunate that IMDb doesn't have tenths of a star... I watched this abortion of a movie in the middle of the night due to insomnia, and it was absolute garbage. The plot was horrible. The acting was horrible. The movie was utterly boring. "malachi" looked like the Shadow with Alec Baldwin (The Shadow is infinitely better than this as well) The character Eve was so undeveloped and 2 dimensional she didn't even grab my attention. I didn't even know her name was Eve. Don was interesting when he kept his mouth shut. The "TWIST" (if you can call it that) was laughable and pathetic. When it came, the movie had done such a horrid job of building suspense or attachment to any character that I simply thought "Who gives a S***." The only thing that made me even lift an eyebrow about this movie was the fact the med. teacher was Dyson in Terminator 2 (Also a movie that was light years ahead of this motion picture massacre.) Anyone who was involved in this movie should be ashamed of themselves for wasting 90 minutes of countless people's time. It's no wonder no actor from this movie ever had a fruitful career. In summary.... This movie is so bad, I feel dirty and need a shower. Worst movie in history, Gigli was better, Prom Night (the remake) was better and dare I say it Saw IV was better...........

    "He's Watching You!"...

    Eve (Kelly Overton) is a med student assigned to a homicidal patient in a psychiatric hospital. Her Professor has given her six weeks to get through to this patient, or she might not become a doctor.

    His name is Don Wake (James Haven), and he's in a nearly comatose, nonverbal state. Eve secretly lowers his medication dosage and he goes berserk, after giving Eve an ominous warning.

    Odd things start happening almost immediately. Eve encounters several bizarre people, and she begins seeing a shadowy figure that seems to be following her.

    BREAKING DAWN is a superior horror / psychological thriller film that kept this viewer guessing to the very end. There are signs along the way that only make sense during the finale. Watch closely and pay very close attention!

    Highly recommended...

    Interesting movie... and a surprise performance!!

    When i saw this movie the first thing that jumped at me was the acting of Kelly Overton a young (and op and coming star) actress that i saw for the first time totally blew me away.. she is amazing on screen and I'm really looking forward to see what the future brings her....

    The movie it self was good in the sense that it let Kelly Overton do her stuff and take the wiever for a ride... not much new tho i had the feeling that i had seen it all before.. but a good experience :) I would recommend this movie... if only to see Kelly Overton.. this stage actor takes the screen by storm.. i give this movie a vote of 7... 5 for the acting performance and 2 for the rest of the movie.

    And on a last note.. sorry about my bad English.. if this is gibberish for you :P plz ignore me...

    definition of rubbish

    I cant explain what a load of rubbish this film is. Like really i cant. its just that bad.

    plot=crap acting=crap budget=so low its laughable

    Jesus, its like the only good thing in this movie is the fact the main character was fairly hot.

    The only people i feel, that think this movie is good are the ones who took part in the film. I'm sure they are not the ones who funded it because there was no money put into this. (HAHAhaha to the bit where there heads get shaved)

    This movie has already wasted too much of my life so i am not going to waste anymore time writing my review for it.

    synergy

    I saw the film yesterday and really enjoyed it.Although there were several clues which I could realize after second time watching ,I was not able to awake the Dow-Dawn case. Maybe this was my carelessness.The subconsciousness of a woman was became concrete with personalization.'Let me go out'the key sentence of the film.Let me go out from deep deep inside of your brain and we will both be free.A discrete film that forcing the limits of human conscious and brain.Anybody who have seen the 'Machinist' would realize the similarities with breaking dawn.A man that could not escape from his conscience (again a psychological and an abstract concept)meets it in an human body.And he will just be free of accepting and realizing there is no way of escape.Also I want to mention about the performances of 'breking dawn's stuffs.In spite of having not many experiences, from actors and actresses to director all exhibited separately reasonable performance that have created a synergy which would increase the quality of the movie
