Description

On their search for the perfect home, Gemma (Imogen Poots) and Tom (Jesse Eisenberg) visit a new house in a labyrinthine suburban neighbourhood. When they attempt to leave, each road mysteriously takes them back to where they started, leading them on a mind-bending trip, trapped in a surreal nightmare.

    I don't agree with the negative reviews but i guess i understand that this film isn't for everybody. For me the story was reminiscent of classic twilight zone episodes. The acting, cinematography and the world they built was really well done. Its weird that i hardly saw any press for this movie? I found it by pure chance but I highly recommend it.

    A tedious and predictable 90 minutes. A flaccid central concept with a poor script and some rather specious scenes that don’t serve to drive the story forward. Avoid.
  • Pretty good but a bit boring during the middle

    I pride myself on having an eclectic taste in film. However, I am annoyed at wasting nearly two hours of my life on Saturday July 11th on this crap. Yes, the acting is fine, cinematography is fine, music is fine, but the story is utter drivel. Yes, £1 is not much, but I will never get the time back. I would rather had sat on the toilet for the same time! Ok, here is the plot: weird estate agent takes young couple to view a house; weirdo leaves; young couple cannot escape, no matter what they do; weird child shows up; weird child ages like he has progeria; young couple die; weirdo child/adult goes back to original weird estate agent; estate agent passes his name tag (and the mantle) over to new weird child/adult; THE END. Seriously, what a load of rubbish. Save your time, and money. Watch the news instead, I wish i had.

    The characters are 1 dimensional, with no attempt to give them any character or back story, leaving the viewer feeling nothing for what happens in the film. No beginning or end to the movie, just a middle making no sense at all. Not sure why people are comparing this to a twilight zone as they were infinitely better than this. I can't even recommend this as a rental. Save your money folks!

    I get the message, but it could be compressed into around 15-20 mins and have been twenty times more entertaining. The peformances were ok, but the script in reality is of elementary film project quality.
