Not quite horror, but definitely good! October 14, 2009 Jessica Shook (Colorado USA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I thought it was more like... action, suspence with a little gore. The story line is pretty good and if you like a twist this one is perfect. They used some pretty good props and the graphics weren't bad either. Some of the makeup could have improved but whatever. It will keep you wondering till about 15 minutes from the end... good stuff.
Stop Killing Me... June 24, 2009 Bindy Sue Frønkünschtein (under the rubble) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Ian Stone (Mike Vogel) just can't stop dying horrible deaths. After each grisly demise, he wakes up in the middle of another (alternate) doomed existence. Yep, every day is Ian's final day on earth. Or is it? How and why is this happening? Who is the girl who keeps showing up in Ian's various incarnations? Who is the mysterious man? What are the seemingly indestructible creatures that keep murdering Ian? THE DEATHS OF IAN STONE is a thought-provoking twister w/ plenty of dismal atmosphere. The story is inventive and the monsters are evil and ugly (the way I like 'em!). Great stuff...
slick but cheesy April 11, 2009 A. Ludens (Rapid City, SD) The premise of this movie was good. In fact, the first two thirds of the film kept me interested in trying to solve the mystery behind Ian Stone's "reincarnations", so to speak. Unfortunately, the main villainess reminded me so much of Lara Flynn Boyle's character in Men in Black 2 that I had a hard time taking her seriously. Plus her compatriots looked like Matrix knock-offs. Bottom line: very cool idea that spiraled toward a hokey climax.
Can the Cycle be Broken? January 19, 2009 Richard Nervous (Florida) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I think this was one of the better After Dark movies in the 2nd year batch, it certainly kept my interest throughout and that's more than I can say about some of the other movies in this "event."
This may not be a true horror film but it has enough elements to fit into the genre, more than Borderland or Tooth and Nail! The story revolves around a man that keeps getting killed (is it a dream or reality?) and then wakes up to face death again. Every day this cycle is happening and there is a girl that keeps showing up in his many "lives."
The film has an interesting premise and it was a lot better than I had anticipated it being. A horror groundhog day is not a bad way to put it but it's a little more than that. There are some very intense scenes that almost leave you claustrophobic wondering if the protagonist is going to be able to ever get out of this ongoing cycle of death.
The film is not overly bloody but there are some "painful" moments that the central character has to suffer through. Others here have given a deeper synopsis of the plot but part of the fun in this movie is learning what is going on, so I will not go into any further detail. I think this movie was fun and entertaining and it kept my interest, while it's not the greatest movie in the world it is a fun ride for 90 minutes no matter how implausible it might be. If you want a rollercoaster ride this is a good one to check out as the action really never stops as the main character slowly unravels the mystery.
Not really a horror film, but still good November 29, 2008 M. Ervin (Boston, MA) 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I really enjoyed this movie. It kept me interested from start to finish; and when I finally figured out the mystery to why Ian kept dying, it continued to keep me wondering what was going to happen next. I really don't think I would have put this under the genre of horror; let alone the horrorfest....I would put it more into the category of sci-fi. Anyway, it is good and worth seeing.
