The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

If you're interested in the topic at hand, you should just watch it and judge yourself because the reviews have gone very biased by people that didn't even watch it and just hate (or love) the creator. I liked it, it was well written, narrated, and directed and it was about a topic that interests me.

This is one of the best movies I’ve seen in a very long time. You have to go and see this on the big screen.

This movie had the potential to be pretty darn good. The historical aspect involved made it even more interesting. The acting ranged from passable (the leading man, who comes across as not likable at all,) to strong (Skeritt.) The plot was fairly good, until just after the half-way point, but left some threads hanging that I kept expecting to be tied up, but they never were. The ending was nothing short of unfortunate. It was as if the writers couldn't come up with a good ending, and took the cheap route out. I can think of a couple of endings that would've earned this movie a solid 6 or 7 rating. Unfortunately, the writers couldn't, so they're stuck with a 4 - and I'm stuck with my disappointment.

The project was too big for this director/screenwriter. Unexplained (all the way to the end) phenomena happened throughout the entire movie, and when the plot was finally revealed, went on to explain that everything that happened was just a figment of the protagonist's imagination. Q. Who was the boy in the white suit? A. it was all in his imagination.Q. Why did he imagine people disappearing (like the real estate agent) when he wasn't even present in that sequence? A. it was all in his imagination.I can go on and on with randomly idiotic examples from the movie. Make sure to steer clear from this unless you want to waste 90 minutes of your time.

a very well done and interesting journey with twists and turns. Great cast and an unbelievable ending. It makes you think and follow the story. Not a movie for short attention spans. Watch again to catch the clues. I would give it a 9 out of ten but i don't give 9 ,s . The locations are also really interesting. Give it a look. Skeet has a couple of great moments as well as Tom Bower as the sheriff. In the same vein as the sixth sense. Looks terrific great camera work the only thing maybe it is slow in parts but that is to weave the story deeper is my guess. Hope this helps it is nice to see something that attempts to be different and has a nice historical hook to it. Again definitely worth a look.

It had a good story with a real hook to it. I was very excited to see Kris Kristofferson, Tom Skeritt, and Skeet Ulrich in the same movie. The location was extraordinary and the house itself became a character in the movie. Good story, great actors, wonderful location and they still managed to screw it up. They dragged it on and on and then... LIMP CITY. This movie was all foreplay and no climax. Instead of going for a real thrill they wimped out. The "oh it was all just a dream" cop out wasn't used, but they might as well have. Were they trying to save money? Would a real story have been too long? The ending had that hurry-up-and-finish feeling to it. Maybe those big names who got conned into this thing deserved that kind of treatment, but the story didn't.
