It's not that bad and has some great ideas. I felt the villains lines could have been chopped, so much of it is redundant and frankly boring. Not bad acting just a badly written part for the villain. The exposition could have been handled differently to create more suspense.
Production isn't the worst I've seen, but not the best either. I'm guessing the budget wasn't huge. Cinematography is nicely done.
The music routine but not awful.
The actress playing Caroline stands out, as does the Romany characters. Abe is played in a strange way, as a hippie. I'm not sure I believe he's been around for nearly 200 years. He knows too much and explains too much. That isn't the actors fault, it's a fault in the script.
There are many unresolved plot points and too many introduced through exposition. We are told the villain is evil but again it's not convincing. We are introduced to too many artifacts without long explanations of its importance. Mystical powers arrive from no where. Tension is missing because exposition is prominent.
There's potential here, just a shame it isn't realised.
