Six friends are brought together at the funeral of a childhood friend. A search through their deceased friend's house reveals a map to a time capsule they buried some 20 years earlier which spurs the friends to find it and dig it up. After uncovering the trunk, the unexpected is found - the rotted remains of a child.

The closer they come to remembering the circumstances of the mysterious child's death, the closer they come to their own reckoning. The memory that will eventually kill them one by one is the same memory they need to discover to stay alive...

Crazy Hates

phaidon1 from , 12th August, 2008

This is the sort of film that makes you wonder if either the director or the script writer or the producer have actually ever seen a movie before - so unfamiliar do they appear with even the rudiments of the process. Note to the makers of this nonsense - direction is more than just swishing the camera about and a script is more than just having the actors say words every so often. Fantastically awful on every conceivable level without a single redeeming quality whatsoever. My own fault, of course - the trailer looked like it might at least be a bit of fun, but no...sad, bad and stupid. Avoid.

DON'T BOTHER!

A Customer from Burnley, 1st August, 2008

I rented this film as it looked interesting. However that turned out to be a bad move. It was extremely slow , and dragged on so much that I actually fell asleep. Also the poor acting really starts to grate on you after only the first 10 mins!

Alright Film

Sammyv87 from , 22nd February, 2010

Thought this film was actually ok. Much like other films of this type, not much story but was watchable. Overall, I would give it a 6 for effort!

Not as bad as everyone is making out, but still bad.

sparklemotion87 from , 14th January, 2010

Judging by the other reviews on the site I honestly thought this was going to be a painful experience. However, at least this film manages to muster some atmosphere. I didn't find it as boring as some of the other members, mostly in part to an appreciation for accomplished cinematography. Unfortunately, the cast of unknowns didn't unearth any gems and I could barely decipher between them all. The premise makes me think it seems more of a computer game. Don't watch if you can only stand good quality acting and directing, go for it if you're bored and want entertaining for an hour and a quarter (very short, so you won't have to endure much.)

shocking film

A Customer from Belper, 8th January, 2010

made no sense at all if i could give it minus stars i would. the director of this film owes me an hour fifteen minutes. even the camera work was shockingly bad.
