Have you ever suddenly had a irrational fear of something? Like when you were scared of the monster in the closet as a child or the weird neighbor with the glass eye and walking stick? Well this film puts this common and often missed part of life into a quirky and amusing perspective with the gem of Simon Pegg starring. Personally this type of filmmaking pulls me in as it uses simple bit effective shots to put the characters state of mind across instead of, solely, relying on computer editing and over sized camera cranes. It also drags me in because it gives me a much preferred break from the tiresome American style, big budget, cinematography with its mind puzzling and intelligent style. It actually reminds me of some of the Sky Arts short TV films which I think this film should have been aimed at, instead of the big screen. Simon Pegg performs perfectly with is 'quirky' and 'on edge' style of acting which made him such the star he is today. His style of acting works linear to the film making it enjoyable to watch. One problem I did have with it though was how much the start lagged at the beginning which did make me ever so slightly loose interest but when it finally picks up you will be in awe at how great this film really is.
This is definitely a film to watch if you have a sophisticated film mind.
