Sadly Over-hyped

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

This film contains many of the elements so many 'wannabee' writers strive for. The suspense and horror infused with comedy and a slant of 'old school horror genre'. The story seems to surround the viewer with a credulous feel but only on purpose. This film carries a viewer through the darkness of obsession, whilst maintaining that excellent subtext of "love what one has for it could be gone in an instant". That precise combination is something so difficult that many writers only hope to have accomplish and achieve such a balance. The filmmakers intentionally obfuscate the viewer to immerse them in this journey, making this a very gripping story to watch unfold. The overall feel in the film from scene to scene is beautifully played out for the audience, and inherent to the very horrific ending. Watch this film with great pleasure. Do not listen to the mindless and vapid chimes of those who refuse to embrace a different journey. This is a film worthy of every moment and beautifully presented. It is deeply encouraging for those of us who strive to create such a journey in film and succeed in sharing it with the world. Our hats off to a brilliant story, superb actors and a flawless cinematic experience!

This movie started out slow and it seemed like it was going to be another stupid low budget movie. But it got better and better until my friend and I were clutching pillows from the suspense.I liked Sean Michael Lambrecht best as an actor in this movie. He played his character with a surprising amount of depth, and became eminently likable because of it. He's cute to look at, and he endears himself to you.Yes, there was lots that could have been better. But the characters grow on you, the acting gets better as it goes on, and you end up on the edge of your seat.The ending stayed with me for days, and I have been analyzing everything the characters did and didn't do. Rare that this happens to me with a movie, so say what you will about the budget, but this was a surprisingly fun movie to watch.

Not a bad movie considering how low their budget was.It was nice to actually see a gay couple who were monogamous(although they did have typical issues), and who planned to stay together forever except for the circumstances that tore them apart.The story with Elliot was predictable but still fun to watch.The characters were portrayed well especially since some of them haven't acted before.Some of them remind me of people I know or have known.The part I hated was the abuse Elliot took from his bloody mother.I was waiting for him to stand up for himself and explode at her.Also there was not a lot of mention of his father.I hope in the sequel his father is shown or talked about more. It would have been nice if the shot of the moon at the end was longer.At the end there was a mention of the killings and that something similar happened years earlier.That part didn't make a lot of sense and was too rushed.I wouldn't call this movie a suspense or horror but more of a drama or an off beat thriller.I did get a lot of laughs out of this movie.It may not be everyone's taste but I hope people give it a chance.I really like independent films and am looking forward to seeing the sequel called "November sun"

I saw the movie in Racine, Wisconsin. I thought the movie was wonderful! The relationship between the main characters and their dynamics with the other not so nice characters kept the movie interesting and moving. I can't believe the ending...not at all what I expected. You almost had me feeling bad for Elliot. The way his mother treated him was horrible and gave me an insight into what it must be like to have the great fear of coming out to your parents/ loved ones. Although nothing excuses his behavior! Great movie...definitely one I plan to add to my collection. Please don't let the 'gay horror' thing scare you away. This is a horror, and love story like any other. I recommend seeing it wherever you can. Congrats and good luck Jason Paul Collum!
