You gotta admit, the director knows how to make a captivating film. His style and "one computer screen" gimmick work shockingly well. I was engaged the entire first hour.... until the absolutely stupid and illogical script takes over.

The protagonist has to be the most stupid character I've had the displeasure to encounter in several years. And this includes countless B-movies as well. I got a cramp from shaking my head so much in the second half that the only way to avoid getting a headache was to leave. So I did.

I came in with super low expectations and was ready to walk out during the opening credits. Insanely cheap and silly CGI with dancing skeletons (?!?!) guaranteed that this film won't even be enjoyable trash. I took a few deep breaths and told myself to give the two directors a chance (they were in the audience and stated how nervous they were to watch this in front of an audience for the first time) and boy did I regret it. Absolute garbage on all fronts with little to no redeeming value.

The only horror I felt during this screening was imagining how uncomfortable the Q&A would be after the film. I shudder at the very thought.
