Jim Cummings is a treasure and continues his hot streak. On initial watch this didn’t hit the mark as much as his other films but still a great watch. Jim keeps his frantic nervous breakdown character in play but he attempts to tackle so many things at once it starts to stretch a bit too thin. The murder scenes kind of set up a world that feels completely separate from the main story and the Hollywood satire bits are good but also a bit much. This may change as I sit with it or give it a rewatch in the end I am always excited for new Jim Cummings.

A soon-to-be-married Hollywood agent receives a mysterious invitation to an anonymous no-strings-attached sexual encounter with a stranger. He accepts the invitation but later he becomes desperate looking for the truth and find himself in spiraling mess. I was really looking forward to this and although I feel like it bites more than it can chew, it's a lot of fun for the most parts. It's a satire of Hollywood and the internet meets erotic thriller. It starts with incredibly dark intro that hooks you immediately. That's the only part that truly screams horror to me. The rest of the film is still great but doesn't quite match the tone set in the beginning. That said, there are some good thrills throughout that makes the film an entertaining viewing. It's got right amount of comedy and absurdity combined with unsettling cinematography that makes you uneasy. About the performances, it's great all around but Cummings does an impressive job as the lead character that Nic Cage's performance in Vampire's Kiss instantly comes to mind. Worth seeking out!

Did this movie make sense? It seems like the strange thoughts of a crazy person. The main guy seems like he was trying to prove he graduated from the Jim Carey School Of Crazy People Acting with all A's.

Do people in L.A. watch movies like this and think "oh ya those seem like totally sane normal people"? Every single one of them seem to be trying to be the most annoying character ever. Even the sex scenes looked like they were choreographed by narcissists.
