| Dread CentralHeather WixsonCyrus is a remarkably fresh take on sort of a stale subgenre these days. Anchored by great performances and a unique storytelling approach, the film is a great find for all those indie horror fans out there. |
| IGN DVDR. L. ShafferPredictable and a bit sloppy on many levels, but occasionally effective, scary and somewhat intriguing. |

| Reel Film ReviewsDavid Nusair...a fairly strong premise that is, for the most part, employed to pervasively underwhelming effect... |
| User ReviewDonna Lgreat horror for those quiet nite`s in with a love one oh yea |
| User ReviewTim CHappened to watch this by accident! Thought it was the John C Reilly and Jona Hill movie! A pleasant suprise! I great insight into the mind of a sicko! Crazy stuff! |
| User ReviewAnthony Pyou know what this movie was really creepy. it actually really disturbed me |
| User ReviewPaul DCinematography: 7/10 Usually fine, but sometimes too dark, or out of focus, or nearly mono color. Perhaps this was for artistic effect, but I find that irritating without any sort of recompense. Sound: 8/10 Usually well done. Acting: 7/10 Harris, Krause, and Henriksen were credible. The other actors were a full level less skilled. Krause still seems to be trying to break out of typecasting from his long stint on the television series Charmed. I liked his performance here, though, better than in some of his earlier bad guy horror film roles. Screenplay: 8/10 Mosaic films can be awfully bad, but this one was well written, even if the content is disgusting. The flashbacks (the mother) and four interview streams (with Emmett, with the two medical experts, with the prison interviewees) are well meshed. The harsh ending makes sense once one gets there. |
| User ReviewXenomorph FNot bad at all. Goes back and forth through 3 timelines. Pretty easy to follow, fairly solid torture slasher. |
| User ReviewFrederick MThis movie is seriously sick and twisted and I suppose that is exactly what it is supposed to be. It truly captured the insanity behind a serial killer and is incredibly dark. The problem I had with this movie however, was that it is really slow and for the first half, fairly uneventful. It seemed to take forever to really get started and it was difficult to remain focused on the film. |
