Dual Mania - User Reviews
OMG!!! This movie was a trip! Mind blowing storyline, sexy scenes, great acting and edge of your seat suspense. This movie has a dark theme and deals with a lot of issues about drug abuse, mental health and childhood problems. And lots of secrets that people keep to themselves. A great scary, indie thriller at its best. LOVED IT! See it when you can because you'll discover its a diamond in the rough, baby.
I found this movie to be quite shocking to tell you the truth. A dark, twisty psychological thriller about a guy seeing a shrink sounds normal. But the movie soon goes in a different direction. Sexy women, nice score, great acting and a neat twist. Cool beans!!!
Intriguing psychological suspense thriller which plays like a cat and mouse game it seems to me. Very intense and violent ( not for kiddies!) but this film has a quiet way about it all that appears so normal. Definitely recommended for thrill seekers and curious seekers of dark films and those movies of the film noir genre. Late night viewing for sure.
