    Interesting concept

    You rarely see a film about parallel universes in mainstream movies, this film fills the gap. The concept is interesting, the story plays well and well packaged for a small indie film. A few twists add to an entertaining hour and a half.

    Creative and interesting

    Interesting concept that was executed well enough to be watchable. I found it refreshing and entertaining.

    Great story!

    I enjoyed this film immensely. Brianna White has solid acting chops, as do her co-stars (not surprisingly, she just won the role of Aerith in the Final Fantasy video game remake).

    I cannot speak for other reviewers, many of whom seem to have a "dark" history (and love) for trashing low budget movies- but I really did like this film. And there's a reason it's won more than a hundred film festival awards (and I checked- many were low-end festivals, but many more were NOT). So, I highly recommend this film - for horror fans, and for people who just love good stories.

    Note the 100s of fake 8 star reviews on IMDb...So bad couldn't make it through.

    I have to admit this movie was so simple and boring I only made it about halfway through. Looking at the IMDb reviews it seems obvious there are 100s of fake 8 star reviews.

    This movie is mostly 2 actors in 3 rooms talking. Glad I shut it off and saved an hour of my life.

    Delightfully different!

    I found this film to be a fresh look at the theory of parallel dimensions. The pacing is creative and deliciously creepy. The horror of the situation slowly crept up on me like a tarantula climbing up my leg. The acting was superb! Very realistic! Bravo to all in involved in this incredibly intriguing film!
