“I donu0026#39;t know of that many time traveling horror movies like this from around itu0026#39;s time so the script was a bit daring. The acting is pretty normal for its time and once it gets going I found it pickings up. The acting and creative directing reminded me a lot of The Evil Dead (1981) actually so thereu0026#39;s really little to complain about.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eThe excessive use of painful and distracting synth sounds and uneven volume through out the movie would have to be the low points. Apart from the underwhelming and substandard sound work on the movie I found it easy to follow, a little over-acted at the start but it unraveled consistently and was easy to follow. Definitely under-rated but it doesnu0026#39;t fall into the gem in the rough category, well not a highly valuable gem anyhow. Itu0026#39;s okay, just donu0026#39;t expect The Exorcist.u003cbr/u003eu003cbr/u003eI found it a little sad in way, as this movie to me depicts an end to a great era.”
