source: Dear Diary

Psychiatrist Phillip Tanner (a solid performance by Scott Broughton) decides to read the diary of teenage gal Molly Goldman (an unnerving portrayal by Kelly Francis Fischer) to figure out why she murdered her family. Phillip winds up falling into a state of insomnia and confusion that led Molly to go crazy. Writer/director relates the engrossing story at a steady pace, adroitly crafts a creepy and unsettling atmosphere, takes time to develop the characters, grounds the premise in a believable workaday reality, and generates a good deal of tension. The sound acting from the capable cast keeps this movie humming: Traci L. Newman as Phillip's concerned wife Charlotte, Jeffrey Wells.as pragmatic colleague Jeffrey Black, and Lauretta Compton as Phillip's sweet daughter Cindy. The surprise grim ending packs a jolting punch. A cool little flick.

Not sure how this won any awards... what else was it up against? Ah well, to each his own, I suppose. Not my cup of tea. Not even close. I wish I could at least say something encouraging but I simply couldn't find anything redeeming in this 'film'.

This is not scary at all. Awful acting.The storyline would've been good if only the "scary" effect were better.

I have to admit i slept while watching the movie, because it's completely waste of time, who wrote? what is the main point of this movie?????????

I get it that Movies have budgets, but this one just feels like the shoestring wasn't enough - as another reviewer has also remarked on. Dialogue was not great, with pauses where there should be none - editing not great either ... There was also no depth to any of the characters ... Just disappointing overall.

One of the worst movies I've ever seen. The acting was atrocious, script and story dreadful and effects just as poor. I would advise anyone who likes to be entertained watching a movie to run a mile because this is absolute drivel!

The acting and dialogue is so awful and unrealistic I couldn't get past the first 5 minutes. Everytime they opened their mouths I cringed so hard.

This movie is laughable but not funny, nor is it scary. It's crappy as can be. The acting is so bad and mechanical it's as if the cast members are all robots. Everything about this movie is bad, the acting, script, direction, editing... A terrible attempt at making a film. Extremely low budget.

This film jarringly confused me. If two people and possibly a third as hinted at the end of the movie are affected by reading Molly's diary which she has cursed, what affected Molly to begin with? Did she curse herself? Is the film about teenage self-harm? How does the relation between dreams and reality figure in it all? What was the waking up thing about anyway? Is Molly a ghost or a spectre? Why did she kill her family? What's it all about, movie? Apart from the plot problems this is rather boring, not helped by the weak acting and uninteresting visuals.
