I play board games about once a week. I have and enjoy the VHS board game Nightmare and the revamped VHS board game Atmosfear. I also like low budget horror films and independent films, so this movie is pretty much right up my alley.
If you like Tom Hanks's early movie Mazes and Monsters then chances are you might like this one too.
Cult horror film actress Barbara Crampton steals the show she did a really phenomenal job in this.
Another fascinating character was Elric at the strange goth store.
Some people have accused the characters as boring or unlikable, the rest of the characters are not scripted badly in my opinion, but since the film is slow paced, it definitely would have helped to make them more likable, especially the two brothers.
I didn't like that their cop friend was killed, but I cheered when the younger brothers loser friend got killed.
I definitely would have liked to see more of the board game interact with them. I wasn't quite sure that once the gate was active, what were the parameters of this thing. I'm not sure if they should have had the screen tinted the entire time, or they should have limited the players only to the house, or perhaps wandering in the gate world.
Either way, it's a unique movie, a unique viewing experience about things that I like, so I really enjoyed it, even though there was a lot of character development that I didn't care too much about.
