This is one of those films that foreshadows the upcoming disastrous events and i write this put of context with the film. Instead, the disastrous events are the damage to the brain caused from this shallow, pathetically acted film. There some films that are bad but still hold up some positive notes but with this one, you wish you never watched it at all.

Acting is poor, the characters are empty, the story is obvious with some cringeworthy dialogue pushing it on it way. The only saving grace is Ed whom, despite his sweet corn anecdote, he was fairly good in his role.

Guaranteed, there will be many unintentional laughs. The wardrobe collapsing at the end, the lesbians, Jessica's leg catching fire. Many laughs are to be enjoyed.

At the end of the film, it makes you think, What were the other six doing in this eternal loop of hell? Why are they involved? All i can say is don't watch this film.

From the description on the TV guide, this looked like it might be interesting. Unfortunately you cannot believe everything you read. The concept was quite good, however, the execution didn't match up by a long chalk. I'll explain what I mean later, but here's a brief summary first (summary haters and those that don't wish to know anything about the plot please help Jessica move in while I write the next paragraph).

Jessica is moving into her first apartment in the big city (Los Angeles in this case). Driving through the streets she's full of optimism and looking forward to her new surroundings. Outside the building, the Dante, she meets Evan, an attractive young man who helps her with her stuff. The building manager, Ed, is a bit odd, but likable enough, although he's a bit particular about tenants going into his 'File Room'. Having moved in, Jessica is then visited by several of the other occupants, an odd bunch to say the least. They are all very insistent that she joins them for a roof-top party to celebrate the New Year. And then strange things begin to happen, Jessica begins to see the other residents murdered, one by one. Nobody seems concerned about this and so she goes to Evan to try and get some answers. I'll leave it there and I've probably made it sound a lot better than it really is.

This film has the look and feel of a student short that got made into a feature. It all seems very amateurish, everything from the cinematography, to the sound, to the acting seems to have had little thought to it. Nobody on screen really deserves a mention, but I will name a few so you'll know who's responsible. If anything, John Bishop was the best performer as Ed, but he wasn't great, Ryan Doom (great name!) was adequate as Evan and Austin Highsmith was OK, I guess, as Jessica.

I feel I've been a little generous with my score (below), but the concept behind this very poor film was actually quite good. The trouble is, little, or no, thought went into the execution. Maybe some of it could be blamed on budget restrictions, but I've seen much better than this made for a lot less. I think you can probably guess what comes next… definitely NOT recommended… You have been warned.

My score: 4.1/10

The film originally seemed interesting but by the finale I started thinking perhaps there was no point.

I like when films don't feel they must spoon-feed the audience information about what's happening. People are generally reasonably smart and movies claiming to be smarter often end up insufferable.

However this movie was different. It didn't shove information up the audience's nose, but as the credits rolled it seemed as though the movie existed simply to appear intelligent without actually being intelligent. I'm not sure even the people who wrote this knew/decided what the story was. I only know its nothing I'd watch again

In am utterly confused watching this show. From the beginning, it was okay, seems a bit interesting but as the story moves on, it doesn't make any more sense and bored me. The show centred on a girl Jessica and she moved into an apartment and apparently strange things happened, people died and she was scared. She panicked but no one believe her as the bodies disappeared mysteriously so she got no evidence... blah.. blah.. blah.. The gore is minimal and there is no horror or suspenseful element to this show at all. Even to the end it was still confusing and i don't know what this show all about. Deja Vu? Overall, poor storyline and poorly directed. Bottomed with below average acting. I would advise all simply don't waste your time watching this show. I have to rate it 2.

Even the hint of style was 'crap' style: you soon get sick of shampoo-advert beautiful young people characters with skin deep characterisation (at least I do, maybe I'm just 'old' at 44). The supposed creepiness/horror does not deliver: minimal gore, no real sense of menace despite building the house up into something that is obviously 'supposed' to be creepy. Compare this to 'Hell House', the old hammer movie with Roddy MacDowell - utterly no contest! Soon you realise that NOTHING about this movie is going to deliver. I doubt whether even the two leads (who are obviously set up to fancy each other) even get round to a good f. to alleviate the pussyfooting boredom.

The end of for me came and half an hour, when the 'heroine' comes across a bloodied corpse hanging upside down. There's a brief flurry of panic where she dashes outside to alert some police who happened to be passing by. despite being believed by no-one, she soon recovers when offered a drink by square-jawed unshaven hero. WTF?? No sane person would want to stay on in that house, and would be shaken up for ages. All credibility lost. Goodbye.

No idea what happened after that, and I totally don't care.

PS: Ha! Having read all the other reviews now, I see I was right: would have been a total waste of time to stay with it to the end: this movie does not deliver on ANY level. I was even right about predicting that the obvious sex with the 'hero' would not develop into at least a good adult scene to relieve the boredom: you get cheated even on this.

All pathetic. Give it a miss.

The title says it all. This movie will leave you utterly confused. This must've been the part project of someone because it is all over the place and a complete waste of time. WTF was I thinking?

Another movie that waste your time.

Terrible actors, an ending that explain nothing.

It's very repetitive, the girl keep screaming ''I don't understand'' then the guy is like ''It's okay babe I love u''.

Lot of mysteries, but zero explanation.

Typical police who don't trust the victim ''heh are u on drug, girl?''

Giving it 2 instead of 1 because the beginning was intriguing.

The Story Jessica (Highsmith) moves from farm country to a bizarre apartment building where the manager's office is the elevator and there only seem to be a handful of tenants. Everyone seems to both offer and expect Too Much Information, and insist that Jessica attend that night's New Year's Eve Party on the roof. Meanwhile, Jessica sees bloody corpses, which she finds a bit disturbing, mostly because they disappear each time she tries to show someone.

I just finished watching it, and I don't... I mean, I sort of get the lesson she was supposed to...um, no. And how did they...if they...huh?

Why you should see it

So you can explain it to me. Because two female characters exist only for the scene in which they take their shirts off and make out on a broken desk for no discernible reason. Or maybe you can explain that too.

Why you shouldn't see it

You'll probably need someone to explain it to you.

What happened tot he story? It starts to build, then just goes phhhht.

It wasn't scary, it wasn't chilling or tense or horror.

It was actually boring and lacked any real anything.

Characters offered nothing of interest, story didn't build up, overall, it just didn't get off the ground to go anywhere of interest.

This was 2 or 3 rewrites short of being a thriller or a drama or anything.

The opening scene was OK, but then it just left you there...with this girl driving in a car, moving into a new building and all fizzled away.

Maybe the next script will be a better movie.

Why so many people create an un-ending movie these day's. i dont understand what this movie about.

This movie starts out with a young girl moving into a new apt in the city. The first thing I noticed was that she only has one box of stuff with her? I kind of get the the story line somewhat. Some things they show...like the two lesbians making out in the dark, dank building made no sense. What was the reason? The never show them again. Another thing that bothered me was that Jessica never locked her doors! Here she is a single woman living by herself in a nasty rundown apt building with a bunch of strange people who are always popping into her apt uninvited! You would think she would learn to lock her doors...at one point she was taking a bath and again Evan walks in on her....HELLO lock your doors girl! I must say that the best part in the movie was Ed! Too many holes in this movie...could have been much better!

Given the choice between watching paint dry or this movie, I would sooner watch paint dry. The acting as mediocre but the one performance that at least bears any semblance to acceptable is Jessica. This tries to be a horror version of Groundhog Day except that it has a weak script and poor execution. Watch it only with your finger on the fast forward button.
