When she awakens, Tony, Matt and the mysterious Rose are plunged into a stirring evening of dangerous role playing in an ever-escalating game of cat and mouse that forces them to face the dark shadows of themselves.

Cleveronix A different way of telling a story
ChanFamous I wanted to like it more than I actually did... But much of the humor totally escaped me and I walked out only mildly impressed.
AshUnow This is a small, humorous movie in some ways, but it has a huge heart. What a nice experience.
Raymond Sierra The film may be flawed, but its message is not.
sarah-120-880982 I really liked this film. I wasn't sure where it was headed at first. But with the introduction of Fairuza's character, I became engrossed. The film really plays on the viewer's tendency to side with one or another character continuously throughout and I enjoyed being played with in this way. It's a unique film. It may not be for everyone - it is intense and remains on three characters throughout - but I enjoyed the psychological cat and mouse game and the acting. There is some really nice work between the two male leads. And Fairuza Balk is one of the most underrated actresses. She is always good and quite exceptional in this. I did not see the turn at the end (no spoilers here!) and found it to be a surprise. I kind of want a sequel now to find out what happens next...
samserpentinesoul This movie had a really interesting plot - it kept me glued to the screen all the way through. I found in it a rare quality - I actually couldn't guess what would happen next which really helps with keeping you involved – I'm one of those people who can easily be bored by a movie if it is predictable so this was refreshing to see. The story line touches on some delicate and potentially triggering subjects but they are portrayed really well in the movie. Fairuza Balk is incredible in this film - she really played and developed the role in such a way that it made the character become almost lifelike – there was a real depth to her performance in this film making it that much more enjoyable. The ending of the movie involved a major plot twist which came as a complete shock; however it was both a good and bad ending at the same time. The concept of the ending was a fantastic idea and provided the much needed shock factor in a mystery/thriller movie – but I was left wanting more of a development of the ending. All in all I would really recommend watching if you like a good mystery or thriller!
BriannaLempesis Saw this film at Cinequest 23 in San Jose. Didn't know what to expect going in to watch the film. I was engaged the whole film and all of the actors are incredibly talented. It's one of those films you have to watch twice, and then you sit back the second time and it's fun to see the things you missed the first time that lead to how the film ends. As much as I'd love to say I saw it coming, the ending took me by surprise. Which is pretty amazing considering that the entire film I was wracking my brain trying to figure out what was going to happen, who was guilty, etc. The credits rolled and I just sat in total silence, in shock. Plenty to be said about the social commentary in the film. I left the theater thinking. That's important to me as an audience member.Weeks later, and I'm still thinking about this film!
lbrookse It's raw, sultry, fun, surprising... I saw a preview screening of this film in LA and REALLY enjoyed it. If you're a fan of intense, smart, slow- burn drama, (like David Mamet) where a few characters ram head-to-head and transform before your eyes, you definitely should check this out.Fairuza Balk has never been better - she's electric, and haunted, and wounded, and powerful.And the other two main actors totally hold their own against Fairuza with rich, edgy performances too. Great acting all around.It's a kick-ass indie film that sticks to your ribs.
