So bad it's embarrassing

Ok so im just after noticing that my first review of this movie has disappeared LMAO so this is my second attempt as the first one seemed to offend someone close to the production LOL. A shrink tied to a chair in the middle of a dirty warehouse is being toyed with by his psychotic patient. Original concept eh. Yeah right. Definitely inspired by saw this even has a bloody limb against a white background for the poster and has no originality whatsoever. Feels more like a parody of a horror movie than a real horror movie. Probably should be renamed farcical. Very little of interest happens during a short running time that still feels twice as long. Weak cardboard acting too. A distinct lack of energy is the biggest issue. Nothing to recommend it overall. Too slow and boring.

Nowhere near what I expected; dropped the ball.
It should be noted that i am a fan of the torture sub genre, so take that fwiw. By the synopsis on this, I though maybe another type of "Closetland," but sadly not even close. While the cast does indeed mimic that of Closetland, the script is nowhere near as good, the acting is not on that level, and the propensity for violence in this was simply not there **CL was not violent but I had hoped this would be moreso**

This is the type of "torture" movie that sets up tables in various medics instruments and torture devices only to never use them. Ok...that's not totally correct. I believe one pair of pliers is used but there is nothing really visible with their action.

The dialog and script are a bit cliche, as the acting wasn't quite up to par with the direction the script wanted to go. I would leave spoilers here, but the script wasn't bad, and has an element of mystery to it that just didn't feel "sold" to me. Add that to the lack of any real blood or gore and thus didn't even feel like a torture film, but just a film about a guy tied to a chair.

Definitely not the worst movie ever made, and had a lot of potential with the script, but never made the jump from barely average to decent.

A compelling horror film.

A very compelling horror film. Fractional was not what I expected. Left to try survive in a warehouse Navigating present and past tortures in order to free himself. The mind and it's secrets is a powerful doorway to freedom. Very spooky for those who like this world.
