A cult classic to be

Rating: Null/10 (29 October 2002)

Fantasy, schizophrenia, love, death and with a bit of time travel thrown in for good measure. This movie is unique if nothing else. And yet it is a lot else. I don't think I have ever seen a more thought provoking film in my entire life, and judging by some of the postings neither have many people.

You really have to be on your toes for this movie, its very much a case of blink and you'll miss it. However, I didn't blink and I'm still not sure I caught it, the plot is ludicrously complicated and unimaginably contraversial. Parallel universes, tanginet wormholes blah blah etc etc, I could go on forever (and many people have) about the science of this film and the philosophy of time travel, but I don't think thats the point of the film. Its meant to be weird, its meant to be bizarre and most of all its meant to leave you with your jaw hanging open thinking "what the ****"
For a film of such a low budget, the cinematography is excellent, the contrast of light and dark working to extremely good affect when helping the audience to decide which time is real and who is already dead. In some parts it is genuinely quite terrifying and has a creepy feeling to it that many modern chillers lack. The hideous bunny costume in the cinema was one of the most realistically chilling scenes I have ever seen, whithout being an unpleasant expirience.
Whithout doubt, this is not for everyone. A lot of people will find the lack of and explanitory ending or indeed a clear plot unsatisfactory, but many people like this and I am amongst them as it gives the viewer a lot to think about and discuss afterward. However, I would still advise everyone to see it just to prove how powerfull cinema still is. Its superbly shot, and has some cracking good humor in it which brilliantly sets of the creepiness. Not only that but its got a great soundtrack as well. 9/10
