A composer, working in isolation on a score for a horror movie meets two women who used to know his house's former tenant. When the women disappear, he's forced to look into the film he's working on to determine what happened to them, and who's responsible.
The film is obviously heavily influenced by the movie PSYCHO with a new wave twist.The film has a good premise. Though could have been worked out a bit better. As it feels like it strives to be artsy yet comes off like a typical slasher in the right hands of a more skilled director. This could have been something worthwhile and noteworthy.
Also the Film seems real into showcasing slitting throats to finish off the female victims
The film does have a good fake-out inventive opening. Which continues throughout the film with plenty of fake scares and mystery suspects and wondering exactly what is going on. It has plenty of set up’s but fails to excite.
The protagonist stays very calm despite his suspicions. The film could have been played up his paranoia stronger to have it be contagious for the audience.
The film has so many pauses and dead moments in between the action. And when the action does happen it feels more schlocky than anything.
The killer's voice is so creepy and unnerving messes with your thoughts and fears to be much worse than the actual eventual reality
For a movie about a horror movie composer. The main score of this movie is monotonous.
Grade: C
