the music was interesting. I remember this from the house party scene:
what genre of music is this? I wiki'd "salem" and says the band is "witch house, electronic, industrial, dark wave, ethereal wave, hip-hop"
the fuck is "witch house"??
I notice these types of slow, simplistic beats are pretty damn common these days. I'm so out of loop with music these days though ::shrugs::

Even with the messy marv song the music they played for that party scene was dead on. overall this movie sucked. I dont think the 3 part construct works for this, it peaks too early with
SPOILER
Luke's death. It was also like 35 minutes in, just enough for me to start giving a shit about the guy. I really don't think they made Avery's character likable or hatable enough, in either way, for us to give a shit. In fact the most tension-filled relationship was the two sons, and even that was mediocre. Ben Mendolsohn, who I loved in Killing Them Softly (a similar character), was great as Luke's friend. also it was way too long, the dialogue was laughable and a sudden swoop "15 years later" is like a sequel within a movie.

It was a pretty interesting take on a kinda predictable story. I liked it though. At least it wasn't another fucking movie about someone getting possessed by a demon.

Finally watched this tonight.
Overall a good movie, I liked the breakdown of the 3 intertwined stories. Kind of wish the Luke character stuck around a little more, and I didn't like the part of the plot where one little recorded tape magically brought down a police department, seems like he would have needed a little more lol
I give it a 3.5/5, good concept, great performances from the actors. I'd watch it again.
