I expected less and was surprised that this was as good as it was. The acting from the leads was solid and convincing, with good enough direction. Clean camera shots with mostly still frames instead of cheap shaky-cam junk. It was a bit dark at times, but with the clean shots it was effective. Story was not riveting, but not terrible and unfolds ok. A couple of the supporting characters were a bit stiff compared to the leads and stood out as such but still passable. Effects were pretty good, and although not a frightening or highly intense movie, still had a couple of notable gritty moments that invoked a reaction. Couple of gaps in the script, but not enough to annoy. Music and sound score fit good as well. Overall, better than most lower budget titles I've seen this year. Curious to see if Blood Red Films can repeat the formula going forward.
