I have found that inside the mainstream this movie is at least kind of challenging presenting various stories on the same night.

Mickey Keating has combined strikingly beautiful visuals and relatively solid acting with an almost plotless mess of a story.

The plot is supposed to involve an executed serial killer's soul influencing others into gruesome acts of violence
Mickey Keating has combined strikingly beautiful visuals and relatively solid acting with an almost plotless mess of a story.

The plot is supposed to involve an executed serial killer's soul influencing others into gruesome acts of violence and murder, but this is never clearly explained or developed as a plot beyond the occasional reference and flashback to the execution. There are a few stories told in this movie, but the amount of cuts to and fro can make this a confusing exercise owing largely to the lack of narrative.

Leaving the audience to work things out for themselves can work heavily in a movie's favour if the right clues and subtle direction is afforded to the viewer. This movie missed that boat completely. It may still be waiting at the airport for that particular boat to arrive which may explain a lot.

The positives are a sad note in that the visual and audio stylings are beautiful but not nearly enough to make up for the lack of plot. Strong colour themes, the right mix of visual violence and implied terror creeping through the speakers were the major (if only) redeeming features in a movie that so painfully falls into the "what could have been" category.

Hopefully waiting on a remake with a proper storyline in twenty years.
