There is something seriously off today: Bill (Jeff Dylan Graham) wakes
up on the kitchen floor, feeling like shit ... and there is a dead naked
girl in his bathtub. He tries to phone his girlfriend Jenny (Katie
Walters) again and again and again, but she just won't answer or call
back. Sure, technically Jenny is Bill's ex, but she would be there for him

Add to this Jeff Dylan Graham's very powerful central performance as not a
dangerous madman but a deeply disturbed human being, any you've got
yourself ... well, a pretty good film. Recommended!
