From Within

Elizabeth Rice, Thomas Dekker (2008) As a rash of suicides hits a small town, Lindsay fears she will be next.

Another one of those After Dark Horrorfest things. This time with that guy from Terminator: The Sarah Connor Chronicles.

And apparently its directed by a man named Phedon Papamichael. That man has a fantastic name.

Female character in her bra 11 minutes in. FYI.

And then later on, a scantily clad female character running around in a white tanktop in the rain... They do a decent job of covering the adult bits, but not perfect...

And this movie keeps telling me what day it is. Like I'm paying attention. Pshaw.

And Thomas Dekker is, once again, and emo kid.

And apparently its the wacko religious folks who are to blame. Some witches or atheists or something just wanted to live their own lives, and then those dastardly fundamentalist Christian folks didn't let that happen. So then there was a curse...

And apparently on the 6th day, God created the bolt-action rifle. A bumper sticker told me so, so it must be true.

Actually, it seems that its all Thomas Dekker's fault. He started the curse that's killing everyone. Not entirely sure why, but he did. Perhaps they explained it earlier, while I was eating. And as you all should know, food is far more important to me than these shitty movies.

Apparently this curse causes you to see some sort of evil doppelganger, who then stalks you and assists you in committing "suicide".

Also, Thomas Dekker apparently has Saturn tattooed on his forearm. Also known as the SciFi Channel's logo. No wonder they're showing this crap. Just a bit too late, since the whole name-change thing earlier this year, and the subsequent logo change. And now has just killed himself. Something to do with ending the curse or something.

And if I cared enough to remember what the AfterDark Horrorfest's score was up to this point, I might go so far as to re-state it now. But this movie gets no points. I'm relatively certain that mans that the festival as a whole has no chance of getting to .500. But I really have no idea anymore. Oh, ever mind, this movie was just put out by After Dark Films, but wasn't part of the Horrorfest. And I've decided that this movie actually got full marks, due to the last scene. Where it shows that all the characters in the town committed suicide, because crazy Christian dude shot Thomas Dekker before he committed suicide, and thus was unable to break the curse. And since I didn't care for any of the characters, their mass apocalypse mildly amuses me enough to give this movie a point. But, unfortunately, as it is not part of the Horrorfest, it cannot help the score...
