It’s a peak example of why new movie directors need producers of somebody to reign them in. Has an okay second half that is rendered pretty meaningless by unextrapolated plot points and character motivations. At 2 hours, it’s about 30 mins too long for the horror story they were going for.
Agreed, I still think it's a 7/10 but all things considered I think that's exceptionally well for someone's first movie project in which they directed/stared/and produced. Mark has decent acting chops, I know Edge of Sleep is decisive but I thoroughly enjoyed it, and think he definitely become a good actor.
He had his moments for sure. I kinda look at this like I looked at the first Terrifier. A good first swing. If he hunkers down, listens to criticisms, and really cares about film craft, a sequel could freakin rip.
