Bobby and Jules take a trip to a guest house on a small, quiet island, in a bid to mend their troubled relationship, unfortunately their romantic break turns into a recurring nightmare.

Why on Earth does this film have such pitifully low reviews, I just don't get it, ok, so it's not brilliant, and it's a theme that has been done before, several times, but for a low budget horror, i thought it was quite effective.

Imagine if Groundhog Day had no budget at all, and they decided to turn it into a horror, making it with a very artsy style. I quite enjoyed the ending, not what I was expecting.

There are several decent scares, and the masked figure looks pretty scary, I'd be lying if I said it was brilliant, but it's a decent, effective, low budget horror thriller.

Decent acting, it looks pretty good too.

7/10.

While on vacation in a small town, a man and his fiancee are subject to a debilitating supernatural phenomenon where they repeat the day over and over again where they're both killed by a maniac and only he's aware of it, forcing him to find the cause of the situation to stop it from continuing.

This was a rather disappointing and underwhelming genre effort. One of the few enjoyable features here comes from the deaths that take place which reset the storyline over and over again. These are usually quite fun, resulting in some shocking ambushes with the figure emerging out of nowhere to slash her across the throat in graphic means with the way the resulting blood flow providing some solid enough gore in this type of story. The fact that they always have to happen with the ambush nature they do makes them appear out of nowhere and come off quite well which makes for a surprising turn of events as they come about in the film. With the number of times that occurs throughout here helping this even more, there's a lot to like with these scenes as a whole. However, there are a lot of flaws that hold this one down. One of the biggest problems is the rather bizarre inability of the film to make the time-loop scenario really mean anything since this one tends to have no point in undergoing the process. Rather than present the whole scenario as a learning opportunity for him to curb his violent antics towards others that gets him into fights or his drinking that always seems to steer their relationship into the combative more than anything, this just tends to continually indulge in that behavior every time they die. This makes the eventual attack and resurrection the next day feel expected as it heads to these encounters which just grows tiresome waiting around for it to happen without a point with the amount of time it happens. Moreover, the film also really struggles with any kind of momentum being built up beyond the bloody ambushes. The early scenes with them running around the island are dragged out way too long with scenes going on beyond their interest of their lovely-dovey relationship taking centerstage here but not doing much else with it. The constant repeating of their troubled relationship aspects that take place once the time-loop occurs is just plain uninteresting as it really struggles to make us care about the relationship at all with his noncommital to doing anything with her and just being at complete odds with everything they do which makes it hard to care what happens. Even the final twist is underwhelming here not just because of the earlier moments but it takes forever to play out, all of which bring this one down overall.

Rated R: Graphic Violence, Graphic Language, Nudity, and several sex scenes.

Some may describe this movie as a slow burner with a shock ending. I would describe it as a no burner with no surprise. If you didn't see the end coming, you must have been scrolling.

I actually got angry when the alarm went off. It was like living in a nightmare!

I've seen several movies that do a twist on the Groundhog Day theme. Most have been pretty decent. Not this one! OMG, I didn't like either of these people from the get go. They never once seemed to be compatible. The plot was a mess and by the end I didn't care who was doing what to whom and why.

Several things in this film are not explained properly and so it ends, and you're just like, 'huh?'

Far too many plot holes here for this to be good. Dragged the film so much, wasting time on useless scenes when they could have been developing the story more. Waste of time.
