When Matt looks up the article about Frank on his laptop, the headline reads "...PRISION suicide...", but the correct spelling of 'PRISON' is used further down in the same article.

User Reviews

Good story - deserves a better director

I enjoyed portions of the film while others were under-cooked, incomplete, or unnecessary. I'll give no spoilers and I see no reason to restate the description - seemed like a handful of ideas based loosely on other films. There wasn't enough character development and not enough direction. We end up post editing with a little of this and a little of that and maybe not enough of any one thing. The film wasn't all that bad but I had a difficult time getting close enough to any one character to really feel invested as an audience. The film did not have that low budget B feel which made the meandering and slower pace tolerable. Special effects are minimal and fairly well executed. The film could have been better had the director done a better job. The cast suffered because the director let them down and that let the audience down.
