I have to say that I am in the minority here. I see such low ratings overall and I do not understand. This movie was unique with acceptable acting performances. This had comeuppance all over it. Basically a film about a guy that let his guilt get the best of him. Approximately a decade earlier Matt was responsible for the death of an adolescent girl when he was drunk driving. The film consists of Matt going to the country with his girlfriend. But was this his girlfriend or was this someone more sinister? This was a film filled with many unexpected twists. Yes, there were many flashbacks and I do believe in this film, the flashbacks were of utmost importance.Many films flashbacks are unnecessary and detract. I shall proceed. This is the type of movie that is a special taste like sushi... Either you get it or you do not. I got this movie and I have seen this film a few times ,because I thought it was that good . I always caught more little hints and pieces of the puzzle each time I watched this film. The storyline comes together , in a most unusual way. Sometimes the worst trials that we are involved are those that exist inside our own minds. For an unusual,refreshing psychological thriller; This is right up there.
