I waited and did not really get much of a payoff.

This film seemed to be rushing to some grand conclusion, but like so many short horror films it ended in very weak fashion. It also made little sense as I am not sure what was going on during the whole movie and as I have said the ending resolved nothing in my eyes. I am sure it made perfect sense to the makers of the film, but that is because they wrote it and knew what they were going for. I have no idea, part of me thinks that perhaps it was some sort of religious flick while another part says maybe it had something to do with death or what ever. I just do not know. However, it was interesting and it kept me wondering what the heck is going on, unfortunately the makers of this film only give you vague imagery near the end and I am thinking well that sort of explains this, but that still does not explain anything else. The film has people trapped in a church, one girl has a head injury and masturbates three times a week while taking a bubble bath. I am only stating what the film did as each character has a life rundown and all three adults have some sort of sexual thing said about them which I am not sure how relevant it is to understand what is going on in this film. Asian lady who is devote Catholic, and a loner dude. What do these people have in common? What lays outside the waiting room (which happens to be a church)? You will wait expecting some grand answer, but get nothing. Maybe it is a play on things, perhaps the waiting room is referencing us the viewers of this film. We sit here waiting for something and nothing happens. The joke is on us.
