I'm guessing the people who like this are simply satisfied to stare at Jared Leto for an hour or so, because I can't image anyone likes it for the story. You can immediately see why the Director never made another film. I quit at the 40 minute mark because this film wasn't in the "so bad its' good" category, it was just bad.
Its really hard to know where to begin with describing how bad this film is, since its bad in every respect, though I guess it was in focus, so cheers to the Camera operator I guess. The dialogue is atrocious, the lighting is awful, the transitions between scenes is jokingly bad, and the acting.... Oh my, where to start.
I rarely criticize production design but it can't go unmentioned for this film. There is an opening voice over about how the mansion is run down, and it looks like the Production designer had 5 dollars and about 5 minutes to make the mansion look old.
To be fair, a lot of what makes this film laughably bad is because of what must've obviously been severe budget constraints, as it had scenes that clearly needed many extras, but only had a few to fill the background.
But you can't blame lack of money for bad dialogue, bad acting, and some atrociously bad accent work by Leto and Slater. I've seen those actors be good in other things, so I have to put a lot on the really bad dialogue they had to speak. It's George Lucas Phantom Menace level of bad dialogue.
I'll stop now, because this movie deserves no more of my life or your time spent reading this review.
Cheers.
