"You've accomplished a miracle -- a truly engaging and horrifying genre piece that completely avoids the recent trend toward over the top unnecessary gore. There's great scenes of suspense, lots of great relationships, and a lot of very memorable and likable characters. You have a handle on pacing, exposition, dialogue, and professional formatting. Very well done." ~ WILDsound Film Festival
