Storyline
Jacob is an ordinary man living an ordinary life with his beautiful wife, until the day he wakes up in an eerie hotel room to find himself being brutally tortured by a mysterious woman. He succumbs to the unbearable pain and loses consciousness; only to awake safely back in his own home the next morning to discover that he has been missing for days. At first, Jacob believes his experience was just a vivid nightmare, until it happens again, and then again. As each episode becomes more realistic, he loses his grasp on what is real and what seems to be a sick game. Who are his friends? Who are his enemies? What is the truth? In the end the truth will be a lie, and the evil consuming him will stem not from his actions, but from his secret. Written by Sukhi Pabla

So yeah, i wasn't expecting much out of this movie, but it blew me away. The story is well written and is paced well. The story evolves slowly, but quickly picks up pace until it is a twisting, turning thrill ride that throws some major curve balls. The last half hour becomes a free-for-all and the story hits its climax, and finally as the final twists of the plot unravel, you find out what the movies made of.
This was a great movie. The sound is brilliant, though the acting is poor in spots, but is hardly noticeable in more important scenes. A couple good scares and some disturbing times (the hotel sequences). All in all its a must see, its not a big name company, very low budget, but it is worth a look.
