No pun intended - the movie is quite unique ... or rather its story is. And it is almost a shame it does not take more advantage of it. We are talking about something that you are not seeing that often. Not saying the story is completely unique ... but with some better ideas, a script that added a few things (scenes or character traits) .. it could have been .. well a contender I assume.

Acting is ok or decent ... but you won't be too amazed by it. The main character is quite bland - which is the biggest issues one can attach to it. You have to root for him ... I reckon the twists and the effects do safe the movie a bit ... but again, you have to love low budget movies ... and horror/fantasy inspired stuff too ... wicked, not always in the best sense.
