Saw this at the Phoenix Film Festival .. it's essentially a college short gone horribly wrong and running far too long. Though the research into conspiracy theory here is admirable, the film's endless monologues do nothing more than say, "Look at all the research I did!" Nary a character has a motivation--save for the protagonist, whose only goal (aside from writing a term paper) is to listen to strange people rant and say spookily, "Are you ready for this?" Clearly the writer/director was aiming for something akin to Fincher's "The Game", but alas, unlike that film, there's no coherency to all the pontification and creepy side-glances in this mess, no method to support the madness. The truth is out there, but it ain't here.
