  I love the premise of this movie. The actors are very good too and I kind of just want the film to hang around in suspense of incredibly awkward conversation and not spill out into a traditional horror movie. It has some really great moments, and while I think the horror elements of the movie are well done and I appreciate the plot, I couldn't help but wish certain pure horror elements were nixed completely. Its just not needed, and the movie does a lot more with dialog then it does with jump scares.

For a certain film fan who likes their movies moving incredibly slowly and who has a lot of time on their hands, I guess maybe its not the worst thing in the world.

Because this was more of a mini-series it has time to spread out and explore many different social, political and relational themes. We are introduced to many characters and see them age, see them fall in love, see them succeed, and see them fail. I became intertwined in their lives, harboring an affection for them and their outcomes.

  Because there was…
