Unfulfilled Potential


Does anyone else feel as though this could have been a good movie if they had just pumped a little more money into the production?

Also do you think that the big name actors in the film (Hopper,Magaret,Zane) knew going into it that this would be a low budget b level psychological thriller?

I agree with you. I actually enjoyed this film. A lot of people hated it, but I thought it was probably one of the best B movies I've seen. Of course it doesn't hurt that Billy Zane appears shirtless in it :P

I totally agree. If this film had a stronger director like David Fincher or Darren Aronofsky, it would have ben a lot more succinct and compelling. The cast was strong, but the treatment weak. 6/10 stars based on the talent involved.

No, the premise is stupid and the writing is terrible. Dennis Hopper is always good though.

No amount of production money will magically fix a lame script.

I kind of enjoyed it.

It was slow to get started, however when it did it was pretty good.

Feel like I have seen the ending before somewhere though?

Could just be imagining it.
