Save your money for something good and enjoyable

When a movie has you begging for it to end not even half way through it's pure crap. We've all seen this movie and this characters millions of times, nothing new in it. Don't waste your time.

The best films of this genre always show a path and provide a takeaway for being a better person.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

Great Christmas movie. Forget happy families, cheap sentiment and rollicks in the snow, this movie gives a far more accurate and entertaining picture of what Christmas is all about - psychodrama, betrayal, high tension, and misunderstandings culminating in a bloodbath. The intimacy between the two main protagonists is far more credible and interesting than one finds in mainstream US movies, and this despite the fact that one of the protagonists spends much of the movie dead. And it's quite funny...

I have not watched a film which starts as promisingly then unravels as quickly as this film. The major problem is after the start it has no idea where or what it wants to be, horror, thriller, black comedy but then tries way to hard to be a sort of Twin Peaks quirky film, the boy singing Christmas carols is very contrived but it totally lacks the humour or empathy. The basis of the film is a man wakes up with his disturbed girlfriend who has blown her head off with the gun she gave him for a Xmas present. She had discovered a letter which indicated he was moving away, oddly he decides not to call the police but to dress her up and move her around the house, this is nonsense as rigor mortis and bloating would soon set in, the boyfriend descends into madness and takes a few with him. another issue is the total lack of empathy with lead character, his acting is pretty mediocre, the aim of every film should be entertaining this fails completely.

Either follow or anything else for that matter. Seriously though, I guess if you like weird and completely out of anything, you may be able to "enjoy" this to a certain degree. But overall we are talking about a movie that has almost no saving merit in it. And that's with one of the main guys from Deadgirl. Which was also a very weird movie to say the least, but way more intriguing than this one.Very despicable characters and some really disturbing ideas. Now some of the latter are nicely woven into the whole thing, but it overall feels like you're being punished by having to watch this. Of course you don't actually have to watch it. But when I start watching a movie, I also tend to do so until the end ... no matter what

There's not really much more to the story besides that synopsis, honestly. Quinn (played by Noah Segan) wakes up with a gun in his hand, a dead girlfriend, and only vague memories of the night before. He's trying to piece together what happened while he slowly (actually, pretty quickly) slips into madness and takes some other innocent people with him.If I can jump right to the point, this movie tried WAY too hard to be edgy and disturbed. From one of the very first scenes with his girlfriend, Thana (played by Olivia Grace Applegate), riding on top of him while pleading with him to pull the trigger on the gun shoved in his mouth… it just didn't shock me like it seemed it was trying to. It felt very forced, actually.The frequent flashbacks are the only time we actually see Applegate's acting — for basically the rest of the movie she's a corpse — and they prove that she has clearly always had some issues, and she's always been fascinated by the morbid and unusual. Quinn is some kind of desperate artist, too, considering at one point he goes down to the basement to start up a new collage/painting rather than deal with her body.The movie takes place in the few days leading up to Christmas, so they really went crazy with adding Christmas songs in, including a man who offers to sing Christmas carols for $1 and Quinn gives him $10, so we get to have that "quirky" aspect tossed in to the mix. Lucky us. It just felt like they were trying to drive home the eccentricity of the whole thing, the juxtaposition of such a dark and disturbing scenario right around such a happy time of year, but the songs just annoyed the crap out of me. Like, maybe have one in the mix — or just keep the Christmas caroler — but having a Christmas song playing every other scene is a bit much.Ultimately though, ya know what the kicker was? Noah Segan is honestly just a terrible actor. I didn't feel a damn thing watching him (except boredom). It was painful at times. His extended interaction with the landlord (played by Don Most) was cringe- worthy. I had first seen Segan in Starry Eyes, where he was much less of a central character, but seeing him attempt to carry an entire movie was NOT a fun time. He just doesn't seem to know how to emote. Every bit of his speech is just monotone, and seemingly not in an intentional way. Just… yikes. No. I would have much rather seen either Applegate or Richardson (who plays Quinn's co-worker) play the lead role.I think it was an interesting attempt at some psychological horror, and story lines like this can occasionally be pulled off well since they are really tapping into some deep human emotions (fear, regret, desperation), but this was a huge flop for me.
