Don't Let Me Stay

Enjoyed many aspects of this drama-mystery-horror. An interesting cross between several types of film. On the one hand it had the elements of a common type of film where a group of friend who haven't met meet in a remote enclosed environment only to find things aren't what they seemed. On the other hand it reminded me a lot of the 2007 film, The Man from Earth, due it feeling more like a stage-play adapted to the screen.

Technically speaking, the film was sufficiently made with well-lit spaces and good audio (except for a couple moments), so in this sense it surpassed a lot of indie films. Some of the actors were good enough but a few were pretty wooden, but it didn't detract too much from the film.

All in all a worthwhile indie film from a first-time feature director. I look forward to seeing more of his work in the future.

I like the concept.

I like the chemistry between the characters.

I did like the score.

I liked the very end when the new couple came. Sets this movies up for a sequel.

The acting could've been better. The conversations and some of the performances were "one note". This makes it a little challenging to stay in the story.

There should have been more contrast with the lighting due to the nature of the story.

I thought the execution of this story could've been a little more sinister to give it that eerie feeling.
