Take a cast of unknowns, film so closely up to their face so you can see their pores, and use a high tech video camera rather than the more naturally looking and more professional 35 mm. This film is a complete pain to the senses to try to watch, amateurish to the point where I felt like I was watching someone's film school project. This was actually released in cinemas, and I can imagine few people in the small audience walking out because of how nauseating it was. If felt that way on a digital TV, I can't imagine how hard it would be on a movie theater screen.
The story focuses on a very disturbed war veteran who is being questioned by the police because of the mutilated body of a young woman found in his back yard. Neighbors threaten him; detectives are relentless and coldly rude, and store clerks want gory details. He doesn't seem to know anything but begins to have nightmares about being with the dead woman. Idea works but I hated the ugliness of the dialog and outside of the war vet, despised everyone else. Put a camera two inches in front of their face, and make them horribly act out the already rotten script. Definitely one I should have passed on after realizing that it wasn't the 2018 film with Mary Kay Place and Estelle Parsons.
