Synopsis: 25-year-old Alex Borden is handsome, charming, and intelligent. In fact, he may be too smart for his own good as his life is swiftly becoming a living hell. Alex's nightmare begins when he meets... 25-year-old Alex Borden is handsome, charming, and intelligent. In fact, he may be too smart for his own good as his life is swiftly becoming a living hell. Alex's nightmare begins when he meets Harry, a mysterious artist and chess-master. Alex becomes alarmed when his intellect mysteriously begins to grow, and so do the horrors that invade his nightmares, and soon his waking hours. Long-suppressed memories surface and Alex must face the terrors of his violent past, a vanished older brother, a father who abandoned both his sons, and a mother who was viciously murdered. The visions intensify and he begins to experience intense headaches that ultimately cause him to blackout. But it is only the beginning of Alex's calamity. Friends and neighbors are disappearing, and people are whispering rumors of a serial killer. Menaced from all sides by forces of evil, Alex must overcome his past and contain his own deadly urges so he can hopefully discover what demons, both real and imagined, are stalking him. -- © Official Site [More]

There is such a level of pretension throughout the movie that it was hard to watch without rolling your eyes at every other scene.

Impossível compreender como tantos atores veteranos puderam aceitar participar de um projeto sem potencial dirigido por um estreante sem talento.

Overall this is the kind of movie I wish could come from indie filmmakers more often.

A fairly intelligent, creepy, and well-crafted piece of indie moviemaking.

Ultimately fairly routine material, but it's hard to knock a film that includes among its cast such familiar faces as Olivia Hussey, Sean Young, William Atherton, Dee Wallace Stone and (the apparently obligatory for the genre) Udo Kier.

There are good ideas pulsing through Andrew van den Houten's horror flick, but once the script turns nasty, things fall apart -- and not just literally.

A small horror film with all the necessary gore and beasties and gratuitous nudity that this not-very-demanding genre demands.
