Horrorfest Administrator Review
An original and inventive premise that has since been copied too many times.  It is a shame that the acting suffers from lack of time and budget.  Gore and mind-boggling situations contribute to the Scare Factor.  An excellent film that has a lot to offer for only being shot in 18 days.
Note:  Commentaries and other special features are worth checking out, especially on the Special “Uncut” Edition that includes the original short film.

Horrorfest Administrator Review
The film has a creepy and realistic feel like that of a nightmare.  This results in a chilling experience from the start to the cleverly-twisted finish.  A true hidden gem that you do not want to miss.
