Seconds Apart (2011)

Touches You

Memorable, crazy movie

hyped garbage

Excellent but underrated film

One of the best After Dark entries and the best of the AD Originals. This movie far exceeded my expectations. It truly reminded me of some of the classic horror and thrillers of the 70s that relied heavily on atmosphere. While this movie does contain scenes of blood/gore it was the creepy atmospheric presence that made it stand out not only amongst the AD film series but of recent horror films. The acting was fantastic and I was especially surprised at how well Orlando Jones ( known more for his comedic performances) pulled off the guilt ridden, haunted, tenacious detective.

Watched the movie at least 10 times now, think it's awesome! The twins in the film are very creepy, which I loved. Using a video camera and their minds to get other people to do things to themselves is brilliant, trying to cover there tracks from the officer using their minds was epic never saw that one coming. Sad part was I think when the evil twins went head to head during the movie and that got very interesting! I would recommend this movie to any horror fans as it fantastically awesome, won't get bored keep you intrigued throughout. Massive fan keep up the good work! Hope to see the Entin Twins in more films :-)

Strange and freaky teenage twins Jonah (Edmund Entin) and Seth (Gary Entin) are seen leaving a party that four jock football players suddenly play Russian roulette and kill themselves. Detective Lampkin (Jones) steps in to investigate by interviewing all the friends at the prestigious catholic school they go to. The twins stand out but Jones can't seem to pin anything on them. The boys have been manipulated by an experimental drug since childhood which has left them with the gift of telekinesis and telepathy. The deadly duo kills anyone in their way in some freaky ways. A new girl (Droke) takes a shine to Jonah and when Seth fools her into thinking he's Jonah and sleeps with her, Jonah brakes off their pact. Director Antonio Negret handles things in a very fresh way which makes this better than it should be. The twins are a bit menacing if not entirely scary and the detective has layers to his character which make him very interesting. The twins' ability to alter reality for everyone else gives them the chance to do their evil deeds. It also provides some story twists towards the end dealing with their parents. George Richards screenplay is decent and Negret does some flashy things with it. There is some gore thrown in and nothing gets too unbelievable which allows this to be a nice surprise.

I am going to be honest. The plot is a little weak and I really could not get past the absolute diabolical acting from Gary and Edmund Entin. The two of them need an acting class, pronto. I remember seeing them briefly in a role in that bomb of a film 'the seeker' -not worth watching either- I recall thinking about how BAD they where in that too. It is sad to think that these two terrible actors are even getting work. They are certainly NOT worth the price of admission or cost of a DVD. Not even worth my renting or streaming! An that is free. . . So that really says allot. Now as for the actual film, there are some moments of gore, but you could watch a dozen other films and get a better caliber of acting. This is just a straight to DVD job and YOU CAN TELL. That being said, if you do enjoy watching really terrible acting with some camp moments of horror then by all means this is the movie for you to sit down with.
