This has a small spoiler to it. Ok, where to start with this film. I know that alot of people had been either anticipating this film or just pushing it aside because they were unsure about it.
Well for me I loved it and here is the explanation that I will give.
You have Ashley Judd playing Agnes a down on her luck semi-drugi/ bar waitress that happens to be just waiting for something good in her life. Lynn Colins who plays her close friend R.
C. brings over this quiet war veteran Peter (Micheal Shannon) to agnes house and then she leaves Agnes hotel room and Peter stays at the room for the night.
As the movie progresses Peter starts talking to Agnes about bugs in his skin that keep biting him.
Agnes along with Peter start getting marks that they claim are from the bites. You eventually learn about Peters secretive past whic he is hesitant to reveale to anyone.
Now the one reason I liked this movie is because the acting made it feel realistic.
Even if the whole thing was diferenet I thought it was good. There wasnt alot of gore scenes but there were a couple that went pretty far.
Not everyone is going to like this film.
Its either you liked it or you hated it because of the whole plotline and how the movie played out. To me this movie is alot like Open Water. It shows you a new type of fear which in this case is paranoia.
If you go to see this film go with an open mind is all I have to say.
