In short: The Room but actually well written and acted.
Barely familiar with David DeCoteau's work, I expected something lame, at best passing, at best of the worst comically awful, but it turned out to be neither!
Slow, cheap looking maybe, but written in a compelling, "human" way of just sort of blabbing off (not without hiccup, but mostly enjoyable), shot evenly and passively, but efficiently and sufficiently for the material, this movie SHINES with characters. People have reasonable worries and arguments, the main character is unreasonable, but within reason, and the villain is oh so villainous, noticeably poorly acting as a normal person, she just makes me so happy being so WEIRD and WRONG that I'm forgiving this movie everything else and still giving it 6/10, it's WORTH it, and I'm very very likely to see it again!
Thank you, David DeCoteau!
