Wissenswertes
The movie, which is dedicated to A.T. White's deceased friend and which begins with a "based on a true story" title card, is an allegory for grief. The monsters unleashed in town mirror the loss in Aubrey's life. Her reaction to them follows the 5 stages of grief. First, she ignores everything and goes through denial ("I wonder if the world still exists if I choose to ignore it"). This abruptly switches to anger (punching the wall until her hand is bloody), then bargaining ("okay Grace, you get one chance...we'll try it your way"), followed by depression (the despondent conversation in the library where she says she's incapable of happiness), and culminating in acceptance (finally seeing Edward's face in her visions; symbolically drowning the man she cheated with; writing out the "Forgive + Forget" message; letting go and floating upwards).

The two way radio never needs recharging and also does not require pressing a push to talk button to talk back.

Zitate
Aubrey: I wonder if the world still exists if I choose to ignore it.

Crazy Credits
One of the rare films besides Se7en and Kiss Me Deadly where the end credits roll from top to bottom rather than the traditional bottom to top.

More of a metaphor than a horror film

This movie may have been billed as Drama/Horror but essentially it's neither. Although the premise of the film is a girl battling thru the end of the world in which monsters have come thru from another dimension, its really just all a bunch of metaphorical hooey that the writer/director was using to express his personal grief issues. Thus the only person who truly understands this movie is its creator, the rest of us can only take our best guess as to what it all means. My interpretation is that the star represents the director, coping with some marital and grief issues and the monsters are the occasional terror and anxiety they felt in their isolation. The premise of some magical sound hidden in the various mixtapes feels like a thin veil put on the film so it could be categorized. If you want a monster horror flic, this isnt for you but if you have a personal relationship with grief, loss, or regret, then you may find some understanding in the film, but dont look for any big answers.
