Terrible writing and annoying music

I can watch a local film school production and get the "gist of it" but that doesn't mean it was well made or well acted. Your retort adds nothing helpful. You are basically saying "If you ignore the bad parts and focus on what they MEANT to do, instead of what they actually did, then it's like there are no bad parts at all. Herp a derp derp."

What a sleeper of a movie. As in: It put me to sleep!
Agreed, the music sounded like a funeral parlorstuck in LP skip mode. The anguished look of Courtney Bell made me want to just kick her face in. I watched about 3/4 and couldn't wait to return it. I could care less about what happened. -

The film was too slow. It just dragged and dragged and the "music" sounds like somebody with very little music experience wrote the score with two fingers and a Casio keyboard. The same two notes over and over and over. Except later, of course, when he introduces a new music piece, which is - and I'm not kidding - one note, over and over.
Hell, you can get better music for free online.
I thought the writing was alright, and the acting was above average for a low-budget indie flick, but the director is in love with every one of his shots and slowed the film to a crawl.

I'm actually at the one note part now. Starts in the hospital. I thought the music was an of choice during the date scene just beforehand. Like mystery music when it should have been uplifting, then leading into something mysterious when the body guy comes across the street.
Yeah, the composition was bad. -

That's a bit sad.
Just watched a stream of this with a dozen or so others and come the ending it was universally despised.

The repetition of the theme song was probably intended to carry some emotional theme, but it ended up being incredibly annoying. And the soundtrack did not emphasise the shock moments at all, so they mostly failed horribly.
