Quotes

Gordon Dunn: [speaking to audience] Memory is the ultimate definer of our lives. For what are our lives, but a collection of memories... memories of events, experiences, emotions... all stamped onto our nervous systems, all leading to here and now, making us each the person we are today. Without them, the present would be void of context.

User Reviews

This movie definitely lets you think about plots and theories while you watch it...

I didn't know what I was getting myself into when I sat down to watch "Rememory. But still I opted to watch it because of the movie's cover alone.

It turned out that the storyline and plot presented here in "Rememory" was rather interesting and the director and writer Mark Palansky along with writer Mike Vukadinovich did an amazing job at keeping the audience in the dark, guessing and trying to figure out how it is all connected and how it ends. I like those kind of movies, because they challenge the audience instead of just taking us along on a ride.

The characters in the movie were nicely detailed and well portrayed as actual everyday people. Needless to say that they had a great ensemble of actors and actresses for the movie.

A rather intense and edge-of-the-seat thriller, definitely worth the time and effort to watch.
