Lead actress Roxanne Pallett (now Roxanne Carrion) spent the first part of her career acting in a soap opera that is less credible than this offering, and with a higher body count. When "Devil's Tower" was released she was a few months short of her 32nd birthday, yet she passed successfully for an 18 year old. This may be a tribute to her girlyish good looks or to the painting in her attic, but that is as good as this film gets.

We've all heard of haunted houses, but a haunted tower block? When Sarah is kicked out by her no-good widowed mother, she is dumped here by social services along with a host of undesirables and a couple of squatters. Then odd things start happening; actually they'd already started; the film opens with a young couple having sex on the rooftop who end up murdering each other. A lot more claret is set to flow, but zombies created and controlled by a mysterious entity through a TV set, seriously?

There is a half-hearted attempt to add some background, but this one fails big time. Comedy horror? Horror, but not in a viewable way.

Sarah (Roxanne Pallett) is kicked out her home by her mother (Frances Ruffelle). She is moved into an apartment that has a group of quirky characters, plus a bunch of missing people. In the initial scene we see two lovers kill each, apparently under control from the camera that spies on nearly everyone in the building giving me "Videodrome" flashbacks.

The film includes humor, but doesn't like giving an explanation of events as the audience has to sort it out for themselves. The last 15 minutes is when the film starts to get good. Good characters, mediocre plot.

Parental Guide: F-bomb, sex, nudity

Yes, all the "gafapasta" critics will love movies were a guy/girl shows another how to live the life. Remarkable sentences and perfect attitude against tragedy. Or mature people laughing of everything because "that's life" or an stupid guy showing her narcissism but showing a "lovely imperfect" woman the world of the love, the dance, and rejecting her parents putting their job and money over the love of her family ¿Where the hell is that people? Life couldn't be further. A lot of times it's not about people attitude against tragedy, but tragedy made by stupid people, and no one gets you out or choose love before money / body... This movie has something: shows you the life of a girl who lives in a horrible world (not only "zombies" but her family, her daily problems...) but has friends to live a horrible adventure, they are very particular, and she meets the love, meets the support of her friends against all her problems, in a bizarre way (as this stupid world is) she has her own scary adventure where she is not alone. This movie has something that all Oscar "pipe made" movies hasn't got: personality. The only think I need in a movie in this world of "marvellous" and "lovely" and "emotive" and "unexpected" copies of movies in an absolutely different kind of world.
