Watched this last night....was disappointed. It started off dope but halfway through they seemed to forget what direction they wanted to take the movie. shyt just had way too many scenes and plots taken from other movies (Hellraiser, Event Horizon, In The Mouth of Madness, The Thing (original not that boring remake) and some effects were done that didnt really seem to even make sense. I understand paying homage to those movies but try to switch it up a little bit. The ending had me scratching my head like WTF. No explanation at all just them holding hands under a pyramid in some other world. Highly disappointed. I'll give it a strong B- to C+. They really dropped the ball with this and it had so much potential. The script went to shyt.

I'd go with C- I found the homage nice but the fast paced story-line didn't work for the the characters weren't well fleshed out and it didn't give you a chance to give a damn about any of them. practical effects were hit and miss to me also the first creature was great but the last one looked as if the just ran out of budget and said F it. As everyone else how didn't really like said my main gripe was the story. By the end of the movie i thinking please end which i hated to do i really wanted to like it but by the second to third act it went down hill fast. To many scences ive seen in other older horror movies such as From Beyond to be exact

Watched last night... some good creepy scenes and vibe, but the story needed alot of work. Was the doctor doing experiments or sorcery, was it science or magic? Needed some fleshing out as to how dead stuff that was untouched came alive, etc
the film is just a throwback no fukks...here you go type of shyt.

Copped on iTunes. It isn't streaming anywhere and I haven't seen it scheduled to come to Redbox yet. So if you're trying to see it legal and free somewhere, it'll be awhile
Aside from some cool visuals, and decent tension in the first 20 minutes or so, as well as some ok gore, this was near terrible. Bad acting (The angry Axe man), muddled script, lurching plot, wasted premise and set up.
He contacted that other dimension (The Void) and made a deal with it to bring his daughter back, which is why things were randomly moving around (the car being next to the building, then way across the parking lot) and why there was hallways and rooms that normally weren't there. It's also why people were randomly changing into monsters, the other dimension was affecting them.
If any of you are familiar with H.P. Lovecraft, his stories are like this. He pretty much pioneered the idea of "I want power, so I'll contact another dimension/alien god/whatever and lose my humanity in the process".

My brain. Just typical cliche trash you hear in horror movies when the villain is stanning power greater then himself.
