Why's no one talking about this?


This is a freaking great movie, kinda reminds me of a Twilight Zone episode expanded into a movie. The lead actor is phenomenal, Wil Wheaton is great in his weird creepy role as the guy on the tape. I was glued to the screen the entire time, its one of those movies where not a ton happens but the acting and story just keeps you glued to your seat watching.

For those reading this who have not watched it, definitely check it out.

Yeah I thoroughly enjoyed this movie too. I wouldn't consider it horror, but it does have the creepy Twilight Zone vibe to it. It is kind of more sad than anything else. David's his life had become that mundane and routine without him even realizing it. When he thought all hope of meeting someone was lost, he meets Andy through the tape and his mind creates the persona as if Andy is his actual only true friend. Once the girl becomes available again, he finally realizes he has everything he has ever wanted. He projects that Andy is threatened by this new relationship and then decides to ditch the girl, but reaches back out to her when he couldn't locate his mother. Then things just take a drastic turn of events at the end... I would definitely recommend this movie to anyone reading as well.

The premise sounds so interesting, I wish it was easier to see than renting on the obscure VUDU
