This is an amazing, hypnotic movie. After watching Truman Show, I wanted to delve into Weir's filmography a bit more. Glad I watched this. Do yourself a favor and DO NOT try to research anything about the film and the events that take place.

I was underwhelmed. It was shot well and acting was good enough. It was slow though and I never felt a sense of real dread nor was I satisfied with the ending.
