The lie is calling this a thriller.

It's the most inexorably boring hour and 48 minutes I've had the misfortune to sit through since... I don't care to remember, the tedium-scars from this alone make me afraid to pry deeper into my memory of bad films.

No one on the cast is remotely likable, I kept waiting, hoping for a twist - preferably one where the entire cast and crew end up in some kind of meta-bloodbath.

Meta is way too much of an ask here though.

There's a particularly bad moment where male lead attempts to change the smoke detector battery, not only does "actor" put the ladder right on the edge of the top stair, the director decides to hamfistedly allow the worst shot I've seen outside of a student film of the ladder falling. It's like this film was made by a particularly stupid child.

It just baffles me how some films just don't get shelved, I cannot believe anyone involved in the finances of wanted their name attached. Also, worst soundtrack I've heard in a long time, probably the director's band, but - DO give up the day job.

I'm going to spoiler - save yourself the time.

Wife's having a menage-a-trois with the other couple, male lead doesn't kill her, although it's implied - I guess the vfx were too much of a stretch.

Darkest 1hr and 48mins of my life

Where to begin, ok, this movie offers 25 major nothing points, and yet you will find nothing, imagine the following, this movie was literally shoot in 2 days max in one house with 4 main characters who received not more that a free meal as their paycheck, it has no script no plot no acting no idea what where they doing, the 1hr and 48mins where taken in a house and the only external shooting location was the pool in the house, the director has the weakest directing talent since motion pictures were invented, The main character's super suspenseful moments;

  • while carrying the moving boxes into the house
  • taking painkiller pills without a drop of water
  • getting wasted in-front of the pool while through bear bottle tops
  • while peeing, he diverted his pee from the toilet to the bath tub for no reasons
  • after spending half of the movie sculpting random ugly weird faces, a massive suspenseful moment took place, the main character decided to smash all of the statues he made in a very dramatic scene my underwear rubber band suddenly got lose from the trauma I've witnessed
  • for no particular reason he decided to get a ladder place it at the edge of the stairs to fix the fire alarm sensor and while doing so he kept on swinging on the ladder till he fell on the stairs, I thought that was it, but he managed to stand normally as if he was taking a dump and just finished
  • the end is surprising, he got back to sculp again more dreadful statues that looks like his wife who by the way the pool killed while she was swimming.

Wasted Potential

A promising start fell flat pretty quickly. The premise of a couple moving to a new house is straightforward enough, and we get a hint that something strange is happening to him in the form of disturbing visions/ nightmares.

The acting becomes really awkward halfway through, he starts to recount his traumatic experience as a vet in Afghanistan, but the laughter that I can only assume is meant to make him sound unhinged is just really embarrassing... it derails from there with the pinnacle cringe scene being at yet another dinner party with wine, her friends are very feebly "threatened" by him to do something they don't want to.

Overall its boring and the ending gives very little in terms of payback for sitting through it.
