CGiii Comment

Stop and think - do you want to waste 80 minutes of your life?

That is exactly what will happen if you watch this sniveling drivel.

On a good note, the production values are really rather good for the budget.

It's everything else that is wrong with it - mainly the writing and the direction and that falls squarely on the shoulders of one man...one delusional auteur.

Let this be a lesson on how not to make a movie.

The(ir) Blurb...

Wunderkind horror novelist Stephen Grimes is hard at work coming up with new ways to kill people when, on a late-night drive, he hits a young man and rushes him to the hospital. A tentative friendship between the two men erupts into a heated affair. Stephen is soon trapped in a dangerous plot, as Emett and Emett's friends reveal a sinister side that could be a storyline from one of his own novels.
