Shifter

As a fan of indie film I'll watch anything, But then you get burned like this. Good premise, but bad acting, bad directing and miserable writing. The director has an eye for cinematography but he can't direct an actor or tell an enjoyable story. Bad writing is the worst culprit. I watched the whole thing as a fan of the time travel genre, I didn't even get a descent paradox, just silly reasoning and lazy writing to get us to the special effects scenes. Also worst time machine ever

Experience, and what made them never reaching the most horrifying goal of making a real horror movie is for me an open question to ask. it has nothing to do with the acting, because nicole and cast do a good job, was it the money. it a kind of ''the fly'' conceptual movie, where the main has built a machine that can make you shift in time and place, a timeshifter you can say, but thats it. it does shift again and again, but the the sum of the shifting is not as deteriorating as you may wich from the genre. its also a story about mental health, pretty introvert i may say, and there are a lot of uncharted sexuality, sadness, locked- outishness, extreme loneliness and an extreme case of multifobia. there are really no good ending to this edition, i guess it will develope into a sequel hopefully more horrifying than this was. its playtime at about 90 minutes felt very slow thinks the grumpy old man. if scify-timetraveling nerd, have a look, just a small recommend from the grumpy ,still searching for the fountain of youth,old man

The cinematography, score, acting, and story of this deeply thoughtful work show that the Planet Thunder team have grown and intend to keep growing. This is not your average time travel flick.The story is haunting and beautifully portrayed. Excellent job.

This movie takes its time to really establish the world of isolation Theresa has backed herself into. She finds a way to shift through time, but at what cost? And what happens to your body when you literally start to traverse space and time? There is also a queer romantic plot line that is super refreshing to see in the horror genre. I was really touched by the poignancy of the story. I recommend this movie to anyone who is partial to arthouse films and cat actors. (There is a cat in this movie who is pretty amazing).

Reviewing films isn't easy, but making them can't either. So how do you earn a decent amount of backing, come up with an interesting concept, and have some directing/writing experience for a film to come out this bad? A horror time travel movie that feels like an 1980's Cronenburg film could be something that would be awesome and entertaining as well. One of the earliest flaws is the pacing. The first twenty two minutes and forty nine secomds sets up our lead and her mundane life. From there, she travels two hours backwards to go back to the date she had so she can destroy the front window. That is the pace at which the film takes to get to the action. I personally don't like the effects for the impact shifting. They look fake beyond belief and the lack of budget shows. On the hand, Peter Jackson Sam Rami, and George Romero had low budgets and made great films so this can't be a valid reason why. The acting is alright. The supporting cast is more interesting than the main lead which is frustrating because we're stuck with a tabula rasa that isn't given very much character development for the audience to care. I genuinely feel bad for the backers who funded this, because it couldn't have been worth waiting for a film like this.

Basically, somebody decided to remove one of the T's from the movie title and replace it with a F, the original title sums it up much better. Concept was interesting enough to me to give it a go. It doesn't deliver, and you can see where the budget went. I guess that we are stuck with the Covid-eos until the movie theaters open again and the blockbusters get released.
