Did the costume-designer for this feature get fired?? But I must add, there were some really nice low-budget SFX for a low-budget movie. I was just about to grapple with all the supernaturality of these 3 groups when the flickering of John's business colleague threw me off the plank. I gave up trying to figure out this movie on my own in its 20th minute. For the remaining 80 mins, I'm gonna just sit back and admire the amazing visuals that the cinematographer dared to capture. Every individual scene was coloured imaculately. The wakeup scene in blue; the office in beige; the kids-in-the-woods in golden-hue, etcetra.
The audience is still awaiting a hero to root for; & Jacob the path-finder gets thrown into the mix. I was already thinking that this film can have an entire tv-series spinoff to cater for the stoned crowds hungry for some 3am sci-fi. When Ink bowed to the Nightmare-inducer I wrinkled my brow. & the quest for assembly-codes <$#!% enter your favourite expression of bedazzlement here> was clearly written by someone who had bumped his head really hard while reading Lewis Caroll's books.
They're all reactions. A man has a weakness, he's flawed. That flaw leads him to guilt. That guilt leads him to shame. The shame he compensates with pride and vanity. & when pride fails, despair takes over & they all lead to his destruction. which will become his fate.
