Awful film.
Don’t bother this film is a waste of time, starts off interesting then just goes downhill from there. Boring and terrible ending. These so called boutique labels certainly release some junk films , this is definitely one of them.

Shame About The Ending
This is quite good until the seventieth minute, when we are served up the dreaded inevitable puking scene. When are they going to stop doing this? I'm beginning to suspect that including these scenes must now be a legal requirement. It also appears that the makers couldn't think of an appropriate finale because it just becomes silly as the mother fights with the killer. He half kills her, she recovers and stabs him half to death, he recovers and gets the upper hand again, she recovers etc. For three quarters of the run time, this is a four star movie.

Fun to watch this crazy movie.
Funny little Movie!Style of its own and great sound effects and music.The second disc has the short Movie- The Hatred. A must watch, slow burn, but worth the ride. Again, great sound effect on this film also, just adds to the creepiness and loneliness of death.

Tell my mother what you did
Ivy Allen (Toby Poser) is a medium who has lost her sight but still practices the Tarot business. Her goth fourteen-year-old daughter Echo (Zelda Adams ) likes to sled in upstate New York. Kurt Miller (John Adams ) their neighbor is restoring a house. He eats out all the time, drinks, drives a truck, and doesn't slow down when he sees deer crossing the road. He runs into Echo and has issues burying the body in frozen ground. He is haunted like a Poe story. Mom feels that her daughter is dead and highly suspects Kurt. It is time to get her mojo back.This was an interesting and well-done film for a low budget indie. The acting was good. The plot was fresher than most.Guide: F-word. No sex or nudity
